Answer:
B) vicarious punishment.
Explanation:
Vicarious punishment is the tendency to avoid some behaviors that had been criticized or had a bad result. In this case, Adam saw that his sister was scolded because of a wrong behavior (to hit another child, in this case). Adam used to do the same, but after realizing that it was a bad thing, then he begins to avoid, just because he saw the consequences in his sister.
The delegates at the Constitutional Convention
a. encouraged widespread public interest in what was happening at the convention
Explanation:
The delegates at the Constitutional Convention were the original eminent personalities who led to the revolutions and the subsequent collapse of the British Empire in the USA.
They were framing the constitution for the new USA and as such wanted maximum participation from the people of the country which was a sufficiently small pool at the time.
The state governments were adopting the tenets that they discussed and eventually formed the federal government.
Answer:
Children who spend just 15 minutes or more a day watching their favourite cartoons on television may be at an increased risk of losing their creative minds as compared to those who read books or solve jigsaw puzzles, a study says.
There was clear evidence that children came up with less original ideas immediately after watching television,"said Sarah Rose, Lecturer at Staffordshire University in Britain," although adding "these effects disappeared after a short time."
However, "if children are less creative in their play, this could, over time, negatively impact their development," Rose said.
There is a belief that slow-paced programmes are more educational but our findings do not support this, Sarah said.
In the study, the team looked at the immediate impact of television on three-year-old's creativity. They compared children who watched -- Postman Pat, with those who read books or played jigsaw puzzles.
The children were tested for throwing up maximum original creative ideas.
The study is potentially useful to those who produce children's television shows, early year educators, as well as parents.
The findings were presented at the British Psychological Developmental Conference in Belfast, recently.
