Answer:
a) spontaneous recovery
Explanation:
In classical conditioning, the term spontaneous recovery is defined as the reappearance of the conditioned response after a rest period or period of lessened response. In other words, the conditioned response is back after it was thought to have disappeared.
In this example, Marjoe trained his dog that whenever it saw a photo of the cat next door, he'd receive a treat. The dog was conditioned to <u>start salivating (conditioned response)</u> whenever he saw the<u> photo of the cat (conditioned stimulus). </u>Then Marjoe extinguished the conditioned response by presenting the photo without the treat. However, <u>a week later, when he hold up the photo of the cat, the dog started to salivate</u>.
That is, <u>he came up with the conditioned response after a rest period, </u>so he presented the response when Marjoe thought it had disappeared.
Thus, this is an example of spontaneous recovery.
<u>Note: </u>
<u>b) Stimulus discrimination refers to the capacity to recognize one specific stimulus among others.</u>
<u>c) Stimulus generalization refers to the fact that the response appears with similar stimulus but not with only one (the dog would salivate with any picture of cats)</u>
Answer:
C. In the memoir, the brothers provide an explanation about their decision to fly in the stronger winds.
Explanation:
Both passages, from the biography and the memoir, s<u>peak of the dangers the brothers faced when flying in the strong wind. </u>None of them undermine the concern or talk about it more.
<u>However, the brothers have provided the explanation for their flight in their own words. </u>They say that they thought slow speed while landing will lower the danger, and provide them a safe flight and return to the ground. <u>We do not see this account in the quote from the biography, as the author only says it was unsafe and that the Wright brothers were almost killed. </u>
This is underlying the general differences between biographies and memories – the biography is the third-person account, more relied on stating facts; memories are personal recollections of someone’s life, and more often include thoughts and emotions of the person in question.
