Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the United States. He preserved the Union during their Civil War and he brought about the emancipation of slaves.
He was assassinated on 14th April 1865 by John Wilkes Booth, a known well-known actor and Confederate sympathizer.
The correct answer is: 1) Information-processing, 2) Stage.
Explanation:
An information-processing approach is an approach to the study of cognitive processing which proposes that humans are not passive subjects in information processing, thus they not only respond to environmental stimuli but rather they process the information they receive.
The information-processing approach explains how the brain encods, stores and retrieves information.
The stage approach explains the development of cognitive abilities in the sense that the development occurs in distinct and separate stages, and levels of cognitions are reached in said different stages.
The Boy Code is <em>a collection of generally non-verbal rules and boundaries that tend to characterize boyhood and masculinity in America, according to William Pollack, PhD, author of Real Boys.</em>
The Boy Code's four foundational pillars are:
<em>The Sturdy Oak </em>- Men and Boys must not be frail. No weeping, whimpering or hurt gestures allowed.
<em>Give ‘Em Hell</em> - Boys are considered to be extremely active risk-takers who are physically violent. Boys often learn quickly that most of their poor behavior will be brushed off as "boys will be boys."
<em>The Big Wheel</em> - Rank and superiority are vital; it's important to try to get to the top of the rankings, regardless of the cost. There's no embarrassment.
<em>No Sissy Stuff</em> - Feelings are the women's domain, according to the Law. Especially feelings of tenderness.
