The results of Zimbardo's prison study do not lead to a firm conclusion for two reasons:
a. First of all, the experiment was intended to go on for two weeks. However, due to the experiment going out of hand, it had to be stopped within 6 days. This was because many of the people who were paying the role of prisoners started getting hit and abused. Some even developed psychosomatic rashes, others started suffering from other psychological disorders.
b. Many critics believe that the results were not very reliable since Zimbardo himself was part of the experiment (he played the role of the prison warden) and could have influenced the direction of the experiment.
The answer is Yes it can, because -3.5 lies to the left of -1.5
-3.5 is smaller than -1.5, therefore it must be on the left side of -1.5 and anything left of -1.5 is in the shaded region
Answer:
Janet stops parking in handicapped spaces after she gets a big parking ticket. - Positive Punishment
Peter’s recess is taken away to discourage him from getting into fights with the other children. - Negative Punishment
Ted increases paying his bills on time to avoid a late fee. - Negative Reinforcement
Sally increases the amount of work she completes to receive more pay. - Positive Reinforcement
Explanation:
In operant conditioning, the main principle is that behavior increases or decreases its frequency depending on whether it's reinforced or punished. A behavior can be reinforced by giving something the subject appreciates, like more pay for their work (positive reinforcement) or taking away something they dislike, like late fees (negative reinforcement). Punishments work the same way, you can give something the subject dislikes, like a parking ticket, (positive punishment) or taking away something they like recess for a child. (negative punishment).
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
You did not include the options for this question. However, trying to help, we can say the following.
As a human resource professional, it is important to know that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission views protection against gender identity and sexual orientation discrimination as part of the legislation, even if the U.S. Department of Justice does not endorse this view.
If you work at any position in the Human Resources Department, you have to know that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission supports workers and employees regarding their sexual orientation. No company in the United States can fire an employee due to its sexual orientation because it would violate Title VII that refers to discrimination because of sexual orientation.
