  • To describe- Psychology aims to understand the behavior of others and gather information about the way the brain works in order to better serve humanity.By observing different human behaviours, psychologists determine what is normal and healthy and what is unhealthy. Psychology analyzes the thoughts, feelings, actions and goals of people through the help of various case studies, observations and surveys.
  • To Explain- In order to explain a behaviour, psychologists must conduct experiments to ensure that the behaviour is not an anomaly. If there’s only one person (or animal) exhibiting this behavior, it certainly isn’t a cultural norm.
  • To Predict- Based on past observed behavior, a psychologist aims to predict how that behavior will appear again in the future and if other people will exhibit the same behavior.
  • To Control- It meant that teachers could take control of their classroom easier, parents could teach their children to exhibit good behaviour, and manipulative older siblings could control the behaviours of their younger siblings. In other areas of psychology, experiments are used to train new employees faster, increase the success of students and reduce drug addiction.

Answer:

a. Nomothetic Strategy

Explanation:

A nomothetic method is performed by taking large data sets and applying quantitative analysis to produce general statements about social patterns. The social patterns in the data set account for some behaviors. The experiences faced by the data set can be a contextual evidence for displaying a social behavior. In the given study, antisocial behaviors in a population were studied through nomothetic strategy in which individual experiences and contextual evidence is collected to predict their antisocial behaviors. Hence, a profiling of set of experiences is done to anticipate risk of  MMPI in humans.

This is very true, and it is almost like the fight-or-flight response, where your body gets the adrenaline rushing and that is when you hear about people being able to lift cars and jump from 6-story buildings. It is a natural instinct of survival that we all have inside of us. Hope this helps.
