Answer:
Piper's test is the Stanford Binet, and Taylor's test is the WAIS (Weschler Adult Intelligence Scale).
Explanation:
Both test are used to <em>measure one's </em><em>intelligence</em> but they both differ in the way of measurement.
Let's break them down:
- Stanford Binet: it is divided into 4 scales (verbal reasoning, visual/abstract reasoning, quantitative reasoning and short-term memory). All these give a single score, known as the G Factor; <em>general intelligence. </em>
- WAIS: it measures <em>different capacities </em>and provides scores for each of them. It measures verbal comprehension, perceptive reasoning, work memory and processing speed.
In this case, Piper is taking the Stanford Binet since she will receive a single score, while Taylor is taking the WAIS and will receive 4 separate scores for each.

A scientist today would think that this technique
D. is not suitable for predicting the future.
Explanation:
The technique being described here obviously works on t he principles of superpower and psychic powers and has no discernible scientific basis so it is easy to see how a scientist would not be entertaining the idea or be remotely convinced by it.
The technique used here is basically following what happens to a bone when it is already cracked to be put on fire, it simply burns and breaks.
When the bone is carved upon it weakens and becomes easy to burn and break proving the hypothesis that it will only break open and show the future.
That has nothing to do with the scribbling of the past deeds.
Answer:
c. The Hawthorne effect
Explanation:
In sociology, the term Hawthorne effect refers to the tendency that people have to <u>change their behavior because they know they are being observed </u>(usually by a researcher). In other words, the presence of the observer changes the behavior of the persons that are being observed.
In this example, a sociologist decides to study the interaction among students in the college's computer center but when they realize they are under observation they become shy and reserved. We can observe that <u>the students changed their behavior when they realized they were being observed.</u> Therefore, this is an example of the Hawthorne effect.
