When Martha was a child, a cockroach landed on her hair and she began screaming. Her mother quickly got rid of the insect, and M

artha was lavished with soothing attention. She began screaming whenever she saw a cockroach, and her family would try to calm her. As she grew older, Martha would experience a fear reaction and scream even at just the mention of cockroaches. Which of the following would be a behaviorist's conclusion about Martha's behavior? Martha developed kastaridaphobia—a morbid fear of cockroaches—after encountering one at an early stage in development. Martha subconsciously yearned for attention and could only obtain it with her fear of cockroaches. Martha was classically conditioned to have a fear response to cockroaches because the attention acted as positive reinforcement. Martha was genetically predisposed to fear cockroaches, and her mother's reaction indicates that she inherited this tendency from her mother.

. What does having or not having cultural capital have to do with academic success? What are some other ways that society reward
Arlecino [84]

Cultural capital concerns certain types of skills that are developed by children, these skills are passed from parents to children, usually parents of the social middle class. Reading skills, watching documentaries, playing classical instruments. These children have better academic development than others.

People with cultural capital skills always get people's attention, stand out, unlike those who don't, who aren't seen as capable by society.
