The study found that infants crossed the cliff when their mothers encouraged them to do so.

In this 1960 study by psychologists Eleanor J. Gibson and Richard D. Walk, infants aged 6 to 14 months are placed at one end of the runway and their parent stands at the other end of the plexiglas surface. The idea is to evaluate the child's perception of height and depth: if they perceived the visual (simulated) cliff, and if they became scared of it, they would be reluctant to crawl over to their parent.

An overwhelming majority (27 out of 36 children tested) crossed the surface, motivated by their parent's stimulus.

Evidence for the specificity of control motivations in worldview defense: Distinguishing compensatory control from uncertainty m
solong [7]

Research inspired by the compensatory control model (CCM) shows that people compensate for personal control threats by bolstering aspects of the cultural worldview that afford external control. According to the CCM these effects stem from the motivation to maintain perceived order, but it is alternatively possible that they represent indirect efforts to bolster distally related psychological structures described by uncertainty management theory (self-relevant certainty) and terror management theory

Suppose that 60% of the voters in a state intend to vote for a certain candidate. what is the probability that a survey polling
Fudgin [204]
<span>This is a very complete survey at all. I wouldn't trust it. I'm guessing maybe about a 50% chance that this poll would duplicate the more complete poll. I would think that you would have to poll at least 1000 people for a poll like this to be trustworthy. I would sure hope that polls are not taken this way. There are so many polls taken out there now a days. I think besides the number of people surveyed, the other thing that makes a huge difference is how the questions are asked. Many polling questions are very loaded with leading questions.</span>
