Answer:

Correct answer: The distribution of continuous traits can best be described as <u>polygenic</u>.

Explanation:

A polygenic trait is defined as one whose phenotype is influenced by more than one gene. In the case that the features show a continuous distribution, such as the height or color of the skin, these are polygenic. The inheritance of polygenic traits does not show the phenotypic proportions characteristic of Mendelian inheritance, although each of the genes that contribute to the trait is inherited as described by Gregor Mendel. Many polygenic features are also influenced by the environment and are called multifactorial.

Mischel proposed that behaviors are determined mostly by ___________. Up to that point, psychologists in his field had believed
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Mischel proposed that behaviors are determined mostly by "SITUATIONAL CUES". Up to that point, psychologists in his field had believed that "TRAITS" were responsible for a person’s behavior. Mischel’s idea has come to be called "MISCHEL'S COGNITIVE-AFFECTIVE PERSONALITY MODEL", and the debate over it is known as the "PERSON"/situation debate.

Explanation:

Previously existing trait theories suggests that a person's behavior depends on his/her traits, and they are consistent in different situations.

Walter Mischel criticized this theory and suggests that the way people behave is determined by the situation they find themselves in, and not just the traits they possess. His idea is known as "Mischel's cognitive-affective personality model".

The debate between Mischel and the proponent of trait theories is called the "trait vs state" or the Person-Situation debate.
