Answer:b. discrimination

Explanation:

Discrimination, in psychology, refers to being able to differentiate between different stimuli. It is more upgraded learning than generalization which is only focused on perceiving similarities. Animals can be trained to do both discrimination and generalization. In this case this dog has learnt to discriminate the sound made by the oven and the sound made by the microwave and this is due to association of microwave with it food. A microwave has become a conditioned stimulus since it is associated with unconditioned stimulus which is the dog's food. Through this process the dog has learnt to actual know particularly how the microwave sounds as compared to the oven.

What perspective do anthropologists use in their ethnographies when they want to take a zoomed-out approach to describing the cu
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The response is that anthropologists take an etic approach.

Explanation:

One set of concepts that is important in cultural analysis in anthropology is the idea of emic and etic. Emic refers to the close cultural understandings and fine detail you get from gaining an insider's view of culture, whereas etic refers to viewing a culture essentially as an outsider, from a perspective that can make larger comparisons of similarities and differences with other cultures. The notion is that you gain different insights depending on the perspective because from the etic view, for example, you are taking an outsider's view and you may see patterns and similitudes that somebody from within the culture can't see.
