Prejudice is a major cause of in-groups as similar minded people, with alike prejudices, might join to form a clique. Some consider cliques to be a social norm, and to "fit in", they feel compelled to join one. Scapegoating a common tactic used by mobs to blame one, or a few individuals, even if there isn't sufficient evidence to prove guiltiness. Equal status contract explains why people form cliques and why they can act hostile to others, but not to people in their "group". Using attribution theory, one can model a situation to determine the causes of actions and behaviors.

Elis [28]

Answer:

D. desire to surprise his friend and his friend’s failure to recognize him

Explanation:

Answer D

Correct. In these sentences, the author presents a humorous reversal that emerges from the ironic incongruity between the traveler’s plan to “overpower” his old friend with an excess of pleasure and the anticlimactic outcome of the surprise visit. As it turns out, the friend experiences no immediate pleasure from the visit because he fails to recognize the traveler and can only be made to remember him after the traveler gives a “gradual (in this context, methodical) explanation” of who he is.

A) Since the occipital lobe processes visual information, if he injured his lobe, he would not be able to see correctly.

b) Since the hippocampus is responsible for processing emotion and short term memory to long term memory, if he injured this section, he would not be able to remember things past his short term memory capacity.

c) Since the hypothalamus is in charge of maintaining homeostasis within the body, if he injured this section, the conditions of his body would not be stable. For example, if his blood sugar level was too high, his hypothalamus would not send information to the pancreas to synthesize insulin to lower blood sugar levels, so he would have to inject insulin manually.

d) Since his amygdala is responsible for the response and memory of emotions (esp. fear), if he injured this structure, he would not be scared of situations as often/at all.

e) Broca's area is responsible for generating articulate speech, so if he injured this structure, he would have trouble speaking easily or easily thinking of the words he is thinking of.

f) Wernicke's area is responsible for comprehension of speech, so if he injured this structure, he would have trouble making sense or understand speech.
