Explanation:

Suggestibility is regarded as a major issue when children testify in court. Many legal professionals and memory researchers view children as inferior witnesses. Although differences in suggestibility exist between children and adults, they are much more complex than is usually assumed. We show that under certain conditions, adults are more susceptible than children to suggestion and false memories. We provide evidence that age-related shifts in suggestibility and false memory appear contingent on how quickly and automatically children and adults make associations when experiencing events. Specifically, when confronted with suggestive information about a related but nonexperienced detail, adults more frequently automatically generate links between items experienced and those already in memory, making them more susceptible to suggestion than children.

Answer:

The correct answer is (D) cognitive restructuring

Explanation:

In psychology, cognitive restructuring is a term that refers to a technique where negative and erroneous thoughts, known as cognitive distortions, are identified, rejected, and replaced by more positive and helpful ideas. In our case, when Tom thinks "What a dummy I am, always studying the wrong things", this self-deprecative perception of himself is a cognitive distortion. However, when Tom rejects this thought and instead goes with a much more positive "I studied some of the right things, and I will do the best I can", <u>he's engaging in cognitive restructuring</u>. This process is a core part of cognitive behavioral therapy, and has been shown to be very effective in improving mental health.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

B) It was a major achievement when it was declared "separate but equal" was unconstitutional.

Explanation:

Prior to the Brown v. the Board of Education Supreme Court case in 1954, there was a a doctrine in American Constitution law known as "separate but equal". This doctrine allowed people to be segregated by race in public facilities such as schools, trains and bars, as long as the quality of service remained the same.

The Supreme Court in the Brown v. the Board of Education case, ruled that “separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.”

Therefore, the "separate but equal" doctrine which supported black and white students attending different public schools, was rendered unconstitutional.
