The toad symbolizes Winnie's desired freedom and her decision on immortality. She gives her chance at immortality to the toad. Maybe she believes a toad would worry less about all of the philosophical and moral dilemmas attached to immortality. The music box, which belongs to Mae Tuck, symbolizes the Tucks' goodness.

garri49 [273]

Answer:

Shaping

Explanation:

In psychology, shaping refers to the process of reinforcing successively closer and closer approximations to a desired terminal behavior.

Shaping has different stages:

  1. Reinforce any response that in some way resembles the desired behavior.
  2. Reinforce the response that closely approximates the desired behavior
  3. Reinforce the response that resembles the terminal behavior even more closely.
  4. Continue reinforcing closer and closer approximations to the terminal behavior
  5. Reinforce only the terminal behavior.

As you can see shaping starts by reinforcing any response that resembles the desired terminal behavior and then it finishes by reinforcing only the terminal behavior.

In this example, <u>the therapist initially gave him a piece of chocolate any time he made a sound with his lips</u>. Then <u>he only received a piece of chocolate for saying complete words</u>. Finally, <u>he would get the chocolate for saying complete sentences. </u>

Thus, this is an example of shaping, since the reinforcements where changing as the behavior got closer and closer to the terminal desired behavior.

PART A: What does the word “deindividuation” mean as it is used in paragraph 7?
topjm [15]

Answer:

D. The process of stripping someone of their identity.

Explanation:

The term individual comes from Latin word "individuus" meaning indivisible or inseparable. In English, today, it means one, single, separate object or a person.

So, in analogy to this, deindividuation is a term meaning losing oneself's identity and individual characteristics to a group.

The participants in this Stanford Prison Experiment lost all of their individual traits; they gained characteristics of the group they belonged to (prisoners or guards) and acted in the way it was expected of them, not the way they would normally do.
