Answer: <em>Socioemotional selectivity theory</em>
Explanation:
Socioemotional selectivity theory which was developed by Laura L. Carstensen, is considered as a life-span theory(motivation). The theory tends to maintain that as the time passes, as an individual typically grows with time, people tend to become selective, also investing more resources in goals that tend to be emotionally meaningful. In accordance with this theory, the motivational shifts tends to influence the cognitive processing.
Answer: Absolute Threshold
Explanation:
Absolute threshold is defined as the lowest tone level that a person can hear while being in no sound interrupting situation.It is the smallest sound that can be sensed by a person normally because it is detectable through ears of human .
According to the question, the person is asking to reduce the volume of television to less than absolute threshold i.e.-beyond which he wouldn't be able to detect the news sound normally. As the volume tone will be lower than lowest level of sound tone perceived by human.
Answer:
Darwin's theory is based on four observations:
- Members of a population of the same species vary in their traits.
- Traits can be inherited, or passed from parents to offspring.
- Populations are capable of producing more offspring than the environment can support.
- Due to a lack of food or other resources, many of the offspring do not survive.
Natural selection will only occur if all these points can be observed and followed.
Explanation:
According to Darwin, organisms that are better adapted to the environment have greater chances of survival than those less adapted, leaving a greater number of descendants. The best adapted organisms are therefore selected for that environment.
A
Pike always kept his eyes open for new information. Lewis and Clark were always on the lookout for uses for what they saw: very little was known about the Louisiana Purchase. False.
B
Jefferson ASKED Lewis and later Clark as well to undertake the exploration of the Mississippi west. Pike was similarly asked to go on the southern route across the plains of the purchase. He ended up in Colorado. B is false.
C
is true.
D
Neither was primarily military although the information gathered was invaluable. False.
Answer:
d. dependent variable
Explanation:
In research, the independent variable is the variable that can be manipulated by the researchers and which will have an effect on another variable that is called the dependent variable. (Therefore, the variable in which the affect is perceived is called the dependent variable).
The researchers don't really have control over the dependent variable but it is the one that it's being tested and see how it responds to the independent variable.
In this example, the researchers want to see if depression has an effect on the negative emotions being remembered. We can see that they want to see if depression will have this effect. Therefore, since <u>depression might affect </u>the remembering of negative emotions, the negative emotions would be the dependent variable.
