Which example best exemplifies homophily? question 4 options:

1 answer:

5 0

A homophily is term that is used in Sociology (the study of society and its people). This term refers to people's tendencies to identify and connect with people who are much like themselves. They can be similar in gender, race, socioeconomic status, personality, interests, or in their belief systems.

Example "A" would not best exemplify homophily because the statement does not provide any information that we would identify as commonalities.

Example "B" also is not an example of homophily, for the same reasons stated in Example "A".

Example "C" is a very good example of homophily. These two young people are the same race (race), attend the same church (belief system), and are majoring in the same discipline (interests).

Example "D" is another poor example of homophily. Although the pair met at a funeral (they know common people) and share common interests, their differences are a longer list than their commonalities. They are very far apart in age, have different religions (belief system), and are from different classes (socioeconomic status).

Explanation:

Conditioning learning is an style of learning where a conditioned stimulus is associated with an unconditioned stimulus and they produce a conditioned behavioral response.

(1) In this learning, at first, the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) is an stimulus that produces a response by itself in a natural way, thus, the UCS acts as a naturally occurring trigger that leads to a natural response.

(2) This natural response that the UCS triggers is called the unconditioned response (UCR), thus, the UCR is a natural response to the unconditioned stimulus.

(3) The conditioned stimulus (CS) is what comes next in the process, and this is an stimulus that does not create a response on its own but when it's paired with the UCS, and after some repetitions, it creates a response which is learned. Thus, the CS is an stimulus that becomes able to produce a learned response by being paired with the original unconditioned stimulus.

(4) This conditionally learned response that was learned because of said pairing is called conditional response (CR), thus the CR is a learned response to a conditioned stimulus.

(5) We said in paragraph (3) that the conditioned stimulus did not create a response on its own but once it's paired with the UCS it creates a learned behavior.

Bill always starts his day with a cup of strong coffee (which by itself makes him feel more alert). One day, her mom make him a cup of coffee in the morning but he was surprised to find out it was decaffeinated since he had felt more alert after drinking it anyway.

The strong coffee would be the Unconditioned stimulus which by itself triggers the response of feeling more alert after drinking it(Unconditioned response).

Bill has paired the act of having a cup of coffee with this sensation.

The CS is the stimulus that doesn't create a response on its own, in this example the CS would be the decaffeinated coffee which by itself doesn't have the effects that a regular coffee has.

However, since Robert has associated the cup of coffee with feeling alert he felt that way when he had this other coffee, thus, the CR in this case would be feeling alert after having the cup of coffee (in this case, decaffeinated)

gayaneshka [121]

I think that is it safe to say (I mean by this: check if it's among your options) that both individual and international trade are voluntary exchange of goods -both parties have to agree on it without being forced to it. Also they should be mutually beneficial - otherwise the two parties would have have agreed!
