Answer:

Mid-range theory.

Explanation:

As the exercise explains, what Robert Merton developed as Middle-range theory is a style of sociology that avoids extremes: it focuses on institutions, not tiny groups and not whole societies, and it holds theory and empirical observation in balance. The way this is applied is, overall, to start with an empirical phenomenon which is then abstracted to create general statements to be verified, or not, by data. As it was mentioned before, it avoides extremes: it won't study small groups or whole societies, it will focus it's attention on institutions.

The correct answer is Imaginary audience.

 

Adolescence is a stage of development and transition towards adult life, which is characterized by an accelerated growth rate. During its development, neurological, cognitive and socioemotional changes occur, in addition to physical and sexual maturation. All of these experiences include the transition to social and economic independence, the development of identity, an increase in self-centeredness, the acquisition of the skills necessary to establish relationships in groups and the practice of roles.

Egocentrism during adolescence manifests itself through several cognitive and emotional phenomena such as the personal fable, the imaginary audience and the feeling of invulnerability:

The personal fable is a story that teenagers tell themselves, based on the conviction that their personal experience is special and unique.

Imaginary audience: When, unrealistically, teenagers consider that others pay as much attention to their appearance and conduct as themselves.

The feeling of invulnerability is a cognitive distortion that could underlie the risky behaviors that some adolescents engage in, thinking that the most likely consequences of such behaviors cannot happen to them because they are special.

Through a group of equals, teenagers learn to put into perspective and to relativize what is happening to them, as well as the emotional intensity it produces.

In what two ways did John Garcia’s research challenge the traditional principles of classical conditioning?
worty [1.4K]

John Garcia was an American psychologist very well-known for his researches that focused on taste aversion in rats and for discovering conditioning taste aversion. Taste aversion is often developed after having a drink or food that causes nausea, vomiting or sickness afterwards. Garcia challenged the idea that:

- any association can be learned equally well.

- conditioning  takes place in an even faster and stronger manner when the conditioned stimulus is ecologically relevant.  

Therefore, the ability to develop a taste aversion works as a survival mechanism. And, regardless of the taste of the food, sights and sounds, ones can tricky themselves into not liking the taste simply because they relate sickness with it.
