Answer:

the rebound effect; thought suppression          

Explanation:

The rebound effect: Also known as the rebound phenomenon.

It is defined as the occurrence or re-occurrence of symptoms that were either controlled or absent while being on medication, yet appears again when that particular medication is reduced, or discontinued in dosage.

Suppression In psychology is defined as the act of resisting oneself from feeling or thinking something. It is considered ineffective because even if a person suppresses his or her emotions, such as anger, the same feeling returns with a retaliation. And, this is what is known as the rebound effect.

The same is happening in the case of Cynthia, even if her teacher asks her not to think about the purple unicorns, she couldn't stop herself thinking for the same.

Sliva [168]

Answer:

b. social distinctions were more blurred than in europe.

Explanation:

<u>British taxes practically caused the revolution of the colonies</u>, therefore option "A" is not the correct answer.

That various religious and ethnic groups coexisted in the American colonies was no reason for colonists to tend to support British royalty (D).<em> In fact, diversity and immigration were one of the reasons why the thirteen colonies flourished so quickly.</em>

The colonists didn´t feel that British royalty did anything for them as they had to survive on their own, dedicating themselves mainly to agriculture. <u>The difference in wealth between the inhabitants of England and the colonists was very large, therefore the colonists did not feel entitled to the rights of English citizens (C). Not because the American colonies had a great diversity of religious and ethnic groups.</u>

Because the American colonies were home to diverse religious and ethnic groups, social distinctions were more blurred than in Europe (B). In New England, diversity was ironically the point in common that its inhabitants had and that would lead them to fight for their independence.

blondinia [14]

Answer:

This best illustrates source amnesia.

Explanation:

Source amnesia is a memory disorder that causes a person to remember a factual knowledge but also to distort contextual elements. The person has difficulty recalling where, when, or how they obtained such knowledge. This is related to a malfunctioning of explicit memory. In Mr. Adams's case, the distortion seems to be related as to how he obtained that knowledge. He can remember the monument, but not that he saw it through pictures. He thinks visiting the monument is how he formed that memory.
