Jeremy stops gambling five minutes after his slot machine last paid off, Jessica is still gambling, even though her slot machine
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:a. shows low resistance to extinction; shows high resistance to extinction

Explanation:

According to psychology, extinction occurs when a conditioned response is slowly eliminated or weakned which over time will result to that behavior being extinct. This means a conditioned behavior is completely eliminated

An example is when you whistle to a dog all the time to come and get food and the dog starts to drool all time at the thought of whistling associated with food , if you gradually start to whistle without carrying the food with you the dog will stop salivating or drooling.

In classical conditioning, when a conditioned stimulus is provided without an unconditioned stimulus the conditioned response eventually get extinct.

Jeremy is not resistant towards getting rid of the gambling behaviour because when he start gambling and is no longer getting paid off he immediately stops so when an unconditioned stimulus is taken away , he stops gambling and if this keeps happening gradually his behavior of gambling will be extinct.

Jessica on the other side continues even when the unconditioned stimulus (being paid off )is taken away she still continues to gamble so she is resistance towards stoping her gambling behavior.

Which of the following family communication patterns is associated with conflict avoidance?
erica [24]

Answer:

Who do you have the most conflict with right now? Your answer to this question probably depends on the various contexts in your life. If you still live at home with a parent or parents, you may have daily conflicts with your family as you try to balance your autonomy, or desire for independence, with the practicalities of living under your family’s roof. If you’ve recently moved away to go to college, you may be negotiating roommate conflicts as you adjust to living with someone you may not know at all. You probably also have experiences managing conflict in romantic relationships and in the workplace. So think back and ask yourself, “How well do I handle conflict?” As with all areas of communication, we can improve if we have the background knowledge to identify relevant communication phenomena and the motivation to reflect on and enhance our communication skills.
