Answer: Modeling and vicarious reinforcement

Explanation:

When we are modeling a certain behavior from the person we take as our model there are steps we follow, we first pay attention to their behaviour: This is when Sharon notices that Kathy brings the assignment later but still the teacher accept it.

Secondly is retention of the behaviour we have observed: Sharon remembers that Kathy has done this several times then she can also do it which lead us to reproduction , Sharon now execute the same behavior in which she also brings the assignment later as did Kathy. Now lastly is the motivation to copy the behavior which is affected by what happened to the model.

If the behaviour was reinforced, we are more likely to imitate the behaviour this is referred to as vicarious reinforcement. Sharon saw that Kathy never get punished for bringing up her assignment later but the teacher always takes it which motivated her to do the same.

However, if the model got punished for the behavior you are less likely to imitate the behaviour and this is referred to as vicarious punishment.

Answer:

Vicarious reinforcement.

Explanation:

In psychology, vicarious reinforcement refers to our tendency to repeat behaviors which we see others are being rewarded for.

This type of reinforcement takes place when the frequency of certain behaviors increases as a result of observing others do them and being rewarded for them.

In this example, Sharon sees that the teacher accepts Kathy's late assignments because Kathy always has a creative excuse for turning them in late.

So, <u>as a result of observing this behavior (turning the assignment late) being rewarded (the teacher willingly accepts it), Sharon starts to do the same thing and thus </u><u>she is repeating Kathy's behavior. </u>

Thus, this increase in excuse-makins is most likely due to vicarious reinforcement.

i have to write an essay about why authors use pen names, pseudonyms, and aliases. basically the main topics are 1.allows author
kozerog [31]

Q: Why do authors use pseudonyms?


A: Authors write under pseudonyms, or pen names, for a variety of reasons. Established authors will do it to cross genres and keep from aggravating their fan bases. Wouldn’t you be a bit ticked off if you bought Stephen King’s next book expecting blood, guts and hair-raising intensity, only to find out it’s a weepy romance novel? King may choose to publish under a different name so he doesn’t disappoint his die-hard horror fans.

Another reason for using a pen name is to switch publishers. When an author is under contract, her publisher may own the rights to any upcoming work under her name. Often authors will take up a new name so they can shop around their work while avoiding legal problems (be sure to read your contract closely, though, because some prohibit this).

But one of the most common reasons authors write under aliases is because their earlier works bombed. If a writer didn’t make money for the publisher the first time, he’s not likely to get a second chance—publishers would prefer to give someone new a shot. Under a pen name, a writer can be reborn.
