The correct answer is A.
The type of data presented is cualitative because it describes chracteristics, behaviours or properties, in constrast with quantitative data types which quantify or measure realities.
It cannot be naturalistic data, because in such cases, subjects of the study are observed in their natural settings, and it is not the case here as it says that "the subject was placed in a strange room". Experimental data, cannot be the case either as they measure/quantity artificially controlled situations.
The correct answer is the pre-contemplation stage.
According to the stages of change model of addiction, the first stage of overcoming an addiction is known as the pre-contemplation stage. During this stage, an individual is unlikely to acknowledge that their addiction is a problem, and they are resistant to plan or take actions to overcome it. Following the pre-contemplation stage, the other stages of the stages of change model of addiction are: the contemplation stage, preparation stage, action stage, maintenance stage and (in some cases) the relapse stage.
Thorndike's law of effect states that rewarding or satisfying behavior is more likely to be repeated.
<h3>What is Thorndike's law?</h3>
- According to Edward Thorndike's "Law of effect," any behavior that is followed by pleasant consequences is likely to be repeated, whereas any behavior that is followed by unpleasant consequences is likely to be stopped.
- If you work hard and then get a promotion and a pay raise, you are more likely to put in more effort at work in the future. If you run a red light and then get a traffic ticket, you are less likely to run another red light in the future.
- Thorndike developed the theory of connectionism through his research on animal behavior and the learning process of cats.
The complete question is:
Kim enjoys skiing and finds that she goes on the slopes as often as she can. Kim's behavior may be explained by Thorndike's Law of Effect, which states that:
a. the whole of human behavior is greater than the sum of its parts.
b. behavior that is rewarding or satisfying is likely to be repeated.
c. the causes of behavior generally cannot be studied systematically.
d. recreational preferences are typically shaped through classical conditioning.
