20 words to two groups of participants. The emotion group is given a list of words that are very emotional in content (e.g., passion, murder). The neutral group is given a list of words that are neutral in content (e.g., houseplant, desk). Each group studies the words for 3 minutes.

Answer:

The emotional or neutral word list                                    

Explanation:

          In a psychological experiment, an independent variable is one which can be manipulated and can be controlled by the experimenter or the researcher. Whereas a dependent variable is that variable which can be measured by the researcher or the experimenter.

           In case of independent variable, the experimenter can change the variable and these variables have a direct effect on the dependent variable. While the dependent variable is assumed to be "dependent" on the independent variable.

           In the context, the list of emotional word or the neutral words are the independent variable as Dr. Jeffries can manipulate or the change the words that is given to the participants.

Ou are a supervisor pondering a possible ethical issue. which word indicates you are approaching motivational blindness?
goldenfox [79]

The word that indicates you are approaching motivational blindness is <u>willfulness</u>.

Motivational blindness is the tendency not to notice when others act against the interests of the organization. The employee in this case does not work according to the guidelines and standards you expect, but the employer ignores this fact. Because these employees, even if they are wrong, will bring great benefits to the company.

An extreme version of moral myopia is called moral blindness. For example, we may obscure ethical issues by focusing too much on other aspects of the situation, such as pleasing our professor or boss or hitting our sales goals.

A ``moral blind spot'', therefore, refers to the psychological prejudices and limitations we have as individuals and as a community that prevent us from being aware of flaws and contradictions in our moral judgments, behaviors, and social practices.
