Question

When Ashley first starts typing, she uses the "hunt and peck" method and finds typing very effortful. Now, after taking a typing class, she feels like her papers practically type themselves once she figures out what she wants to say.This change in her typing reflects a shift froma. automatic to controlled thinking.b. controlled to automatic thinking.c. emotional to cognitive thinking.d. cognitive to emotional thinking.

Answer 1

Answer: b) controlled to automatic thinking.

Explanation:

Controlled thinking is conscious thinking in which a person controls and manages the thought while involved in thoughts and ideas.

Automatic thinking is thinking that occurs in mind with absence of consciousness in the form of response to any event or act.

According to the question,the change happening in typing of Ashley describes about controlled thinking to automatic thinking because she used improper typing method that requires control but after typing class she can type fluently and automatically.

Other options are incorrect because automatic towards controlled thinking, emotional thinking to cognitive thinking and vice-versa is not taking place in question's scenario.Thus, the correct option is option(b).
