Answer:
Our schema for the event selectively "tunes" our attention toward expected events and away from unexpected events.
Explanation:
Schema can be defined as follows;
1. A hypothetical knowledge structure that contains what a person knows about a particular concept, including the relations among objects, relevant events, actions and sequences of actions
Example 1: Your knowledge of an egg
once it is activated, it affects attention, interpretation and memory
Example 2: A recovering alcoholic is interested in dating a librarian and sees her at a party and his friend says she was drinking beer.
but he swears she was drinking soda. His schemas about librarians led him to improperly encode what she was drinking.
2. When people have judgements about everyday events, the feature-matching process usually leads people to select the right schema to encode a given event.
3. The influence of schemas on behavior: research in which participants who were primed to think of elderly people later walked more slowly down a hallway.
he filled the senate with new members i think
Well an adverb helps make the verb (an action) take place
An adjective helps describe a noun
A prepositional phrase helps describe an event or location.
1). We can combine sentences with AN ADJECTITVE if they are talking about the same noun
2). We can combine sentences with AN ADVERB if they are talking about the same action
3). We can combine sentences with A PREPOSITIONAL PHRASE if they are talking about the same location
Benjamin Martin was a veteran of the French and Indian War. During the American Revolution in 1776, Benjamin Martin was called to Charleston to vote in the South Carolina Assembly to support the Continental Army. Benjamin declined but the vote was passed. Two years later, Charleston fell to the British. There was a battle nearby and Benjamin's family took care of all the wounded, British and American.
