Answer:

Psychological arousal is very simimal for several emotions, so it is not always reliable for the polygraph to distinguish one emotion reaction from another. For instance guilt from other reactions.

Explanation:

The polygraph can most certainly determine if a person is nervous or not, because the nervous system reacts under testing situations, as well as other body reactions. This is not sufficient enought to deternmine wether someone is lying or not, is guilty or not. Someone can be nervous, and the polygraph can identify it, but this does not neccesarily mean a person can be found guilty.

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
Lorico [155]

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.
