Answer: Scientific journals are more credible than web pages because they have gone through the most rigorous review process. They also have the most references or citations.

This is probably because scientific journals get cross-referenced and peer-reviewed by other mainstream scientific organizations whereas a regular webpage can tell you just about anything without anything to back it up. Their credibility isn't as high.

Jim watches lots of violent television while Sam prefers to watch comedies. As the boys walk to school one day, they witness one
Harrizon [31]

The correct answer would be, Jim will not react at all, Sam may intervene.

As the boys walk to school one day, they witness one of their classmates being bullied by an older child. According to research on desensitization effect, Jim will not react at all, Sam may intervene.

Explanation:

Desensitization is a concept in psychology. It is a process in which the emotional responsiveness to a negative or positive stimulus diminishes, after it is being exposed to it repeatedly.

In simple words, when something begins to happen repeatedly, the emotional responsiveness towards that diminishes gradually.

So because Jim is used to watch movies full of violence and concerned things, and Sam was not used to such things, then according to desensitization, Jim will not react at all because he was exposed to such stimulus repeatedly, but Sam might intervene as this would be a new situation for him.
