Answer:

Operant Conditioning

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question you seem to be applying the principles of Operant Conditioning. This is a learning method designed by American psychologist and Behaviorist Burrhus Frederic Skinner in 1938, in which different behaviors are met with either a reward or a punishment in order to encourage or deter certain behaviors. Which is what you seem to be doing with Ralph by reinforcing a behavior with a candy bar or deterring it with a squirt gun.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Answer:

Solomon is most likely going to believe that his twenty workers are not autonomous anymore, and certainly exploit them.

Explanation:

David Kipnis proposes that power over other people gives the subject with power the impression that other do not control their own behavior and that they are not autonomous anymore.  

Also, that a person who successfully exercises power over others is most likely to believe that they are less deserving of respect, thus they become a target of exploiting.  

In this case Solomon has legitimate authority and has the absolute power over his workers behaviors so it is most likely that Solomon exercises his power by evading his workers autonomy and exploiting them.

Neko [114]

Answer:

d. relies on a sample that is too small to represent the entire corporate workforce

Explanation:

the conclusion is suspect because a 100 employee in a single corporation is too small to represent the entire corporate workforce. Larger sample size involving more than one corporation will be more representative than using a single corporation, the study is not random.

Option A is wrong because it was never stated by the researcher that  corporate employees are more sleep deprived than other people.

Option C is wrong because the effect of sleep deprivation is out of the scope of the study.

Option B is also wrong because the evidence provided is statistically possible.
