Answer:

Aversive conditioning.

Explanation:

Aversive conditioning is when something unpleasant action is given to someone for unwanted behavior. In other words, aversive conditioning is the conditioning of behavior by using 'punishments' or 'negative' approach to make the person give up or deflect from that particular behavior.

Henrietta's approach of following her friend's suggestion to use a bitter-tasting cream to make her son stop sucking his thumb is an example of aversion conditioning. The use of the bitter cream allows the son to stop his bad or unwanted behavior of sucking his thumb.

Was the open door policy in China fair?
melomori [17]

Answer:

The Open Door Policy was not fair to all nations because China was forced to open their borders to trade with other countries without their consent, it caused rebellious behavior in China, and other countries reaped the profits. The Chinese were forced to open their borders and trade with other countries.

Explanation:

Why was the Open Door Policy created? The US had recently gained a foothold in East Asia, and they were afraid they'd be forced out of the Chinese market by countries who had been there longer than them, so they created the policy to ensure they wouldn't lose their ability to trade with China.
