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.

dusya [7]

My answer would be false.  Humans are not always subjected to the same limited factors because they have intellect.  They find ways to get by when the need to solve these limits arises.  They do not let themselves be controlled by the elements but find ways to get around these factors.

Daniel's work placed him in a group of 5 to demonstrate a new method of taking inventory of the store's products in less time. T
frosja888 [35]

Answer: cooperation; aggression; most people cooperate

Explanation:

<em>Two of Daniel's group members do not seem interested in contributing. Daniel begins to get frustrated that his goal of completing the task is blocked. Daniel remembers that </em><em><u>cooperation</u></em><em> is better than </em><em><u>aggression</u></em><em>, especially when </em><em><u>most people cooperate</u></em><em>.</em>

It is better to try to cooperate with others than to be aggressive. Aggression can have the effect of pushing people away or putting them under pressure which can invariably lead to lower quality work.

In this case it is better that Daniel tries to cooperate with the other 2 members who are interested in contributing as they still constitute a majority. When the other 2 see this, they may become encouraged to join in the discussion.

If Daniel responds with aggression, it might even push away the other 2 members that seem interested in contributing because they may not feel comfortable working with him.
