A developmental psychologist is showing a four-month-old infant a series of drawings. Each drawing shows a series of heavy black

dots arranged in the shape of a square. After seeing a series of such pictures, the infant looks for shorter and shorter periods of time until she is barely glancing at each new version of the black dots in a square. Suddenly the researcher presents a new drawing of heavy black dots in the shape of a circle, and the baby shows renewed interest by gazing for a longer period of time. What is illustrated by this research project?

Answer:

The baby became habituated to the pattern of the dots in the shape of a square

Explanation:

Habituation is the learning process by which an organism's initial response to a stimulus decreases after the organism repeatedly is exposed to the stimulus.

Here, the baby was interested to the pattern of the dots in the shape of a square but after the baby was repeatedly subjected to it the baby became habituated to them and lost interest. Later a different pattern got the baby interested again.

Hence, the baby became habituated to the pattern of the dots in the shape of a square.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: "b) "When my son starts getting frustrated and aggressive, I remind him that if he throws a fit he will have to go to time out."

Explanation: A child will be disciplined when one notices an ill behavior in the child. Hence, when the caregiver notices any bad behavior, he reminds the child that he will be placed in a time-out, which is the discipline. This therefore will curtail the child's behavior.
