Answer:

A token economy, reinforcement

Explanation:

A token economy is the most effective technique that is very fastest and very advanced these days. This technique is used to change the behavior of children. The token is collected by children whole day and change this token in the bigger reward like favorite video game etc. There is a different type of token that could be happened such as stickers for preschool children.  

Learning happened with reinforcement or punishment. Reinforcement can be positive or negative. But the reinforcement increase the likelihood of the behavior.  

Thus in the above question, the token economy and the reinforcement have been used by the institution to change the inappropriate behavior of an adolescent.

1. How did people communicate in ancient and mediaeval time explain with examples ?
leva [86]

The question is extremely vague. “Ancient” covers a large period of time that had varied technologies. “Communication” is also a very vague term. That being said, I will attempt to give an answer.

I am assuming that you are asking about human communication. One of the things that distinguishes humans from animals is speech. Probably the most ancient means of communication was speech. Hand gestures, body language, and facial expressions are also a means of communication. Dance and music were also very ancient means of communication.

Messengers with verbal messages, signal fires, totems, banners, cave art, etc. were ancient means of communication that predate history.

Proto alphabets and pictographs were used as early as 60,000 years ago. Such script was found on egg shells dating back that far and found in southwestern Africa.

Genuine writing began as early as 5,000 years BC with the Vinca script (although this is disputed). It is undisputed that cuneiform script was in use in what is now Iraq about 3,000 BC. This early writing was typically impressed on clay tablets and allowed to dry. Small tablets could be transported between distant locations. Some script was also present on pottery. Rudimentary codes were used for distant communication with signal fires. Drums could be heard at great distances and were also used to communicate. Once paper was invented, things really took off, literally. Messenger pigeons were used as early as 1150 in Baghdad and also later by Genghis Khan. This ancient means of aerial communication was still in wide use in World War I.

More common were couriers on horseback that would take written messages quickly between people at distances. In ancient Persia (Iran) they had messengers, called angros that would carry messages in stations that had a day's ride distance along the royal road. The riders were exclusively in the service of government. A message could be transported from Susa (south western Iran) to Sardis (western Turkey), a distance of 1,677 miles in just seven days. The same journey took ninety days on foot. This type of system was later used by the Romans. Messages were also transported by boats and ships.

Even ancient communication could be relatively fast.

KengaRu [80]

The correct answer is participant observer

Participant observation is an excellent methodological resource for  research because it allows a more dense insertion in the  practices and representations experienced by the respective religious expressions chosen for  study. By this method, the researcher closely follows the event of his  investigation; the most constant incursions into the group's cults and everyday situations,  allow you to further decode the imaginary, vocabulary, symbols and valid rites and  coherent for their respective supporters, with greater correspondence to the way in which  members experience their belief.

Why does the temperature in the thermocline decrease quickly with depth?
Gnoma [55]

Because of the fluctuation.

In most ocean regions, wind-driven circulation, which has been the focus of discussions so far, does not reach below the first kilometer of the oceans. The renewal of the waters below this depth is achieved by currents that are guided by differences in density produced by effects of temperature (thermals) or salinity (halinos). The associated circulation is therefore referred to as the thermohaline circulation. Since these movements are mostly quite slow, it is very unlikely to use direct current meters (current meters); they are usually estimated by the distribution of the physical properties of the water and the application of geostrophy.

The driving force of thermohaline circulation is the formation of water bodies. Water bodies with well-defined salinity and temperature characteristics are created in specific regions by surface processes; they then sink and slowly mix with other bodies of water as they move. The two main processes for the formation of water bodies are deep convection and subduction. Both are linked to the dynamics of the mixing layer on the surface of the ocean; thus, it is necessary to first discuss thermohaline aspects of the surface ocean first.
