The April 1986 disaster at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine was the product of a flawed Soviet reactor design coupled with serious mistakes made by the plant operators. It was a direct consequence of Cold War isolation and the resulting lack of any safety culture.

westerlies
Because winds are named from the direction in which they originate, these winds are called prevailing westerlies. Prevailing westerlies in the Northern Hemisphere are responsible for many of the weather movements across the United States and Canada.
Answer:
1. Students should explain that observational learning theory predicts that Mr. Wright's children will imitate both his actions and his excuses. Observational learning studies indicate that observational learning will occur most powerfully when the actions and words of models are consistent; when models do one thing and say another, children will do what they see adults do and say what they hear adults say. Students should advise Mr. Wright to provide an effective model to his children by actually donating time and money to charity and continuing by talk about why this is important. This model is more likely to increase the chances of his children learning this behavior through observational learning.
2. UCS- alcohol
UCR- sense of well-being
CS- smell of alcohol
CR- sense of well-being
-alcohol (UCS) causes the UCR; UCS naturally and automatically cause (UCR) a sense of well-being, without any previous conditioning
-since the smell of alcohol is paired repeatedly with actual alcohol (UCS), it is likely to eventually elicit the UCR (sense of well-being)
—sense of well-being is the UCR to the UCS of alcohol, the smell of alcohol (CS) is likely to eventually elicit the CR of a sense of well-being
-the presentation of the CS (smell of alcohol) without the UCS (alcohol), with repeated pairings, will eliminate the conditioned response (CR). Therefore, extinction has taken place.
3. OC: stimulus (S) —> response (R) —> reinforcement (R1)
-some psychoactive drugs produce a tolerance effect. Drug users need to take increasing doses of the drug to achieve the same physiological effect. Tolerance leads to withdrawal symptoms.
-any drug that produces tolerance leads to withdrawal symptoms. Drug users experience extremely negative symptoms when they are without the drug (strokes, night sweats)
-drug addicts might use psychiatric drugs to alleviate withdrawal symptoms. Negative reinforcement occurs when a behavior is followed by the removal of an aversive stimulus (elimination/reduction of withdrawal symptoms when an addict uses a drug again). This negative reinforcement increases the likelihood that the drug addict will use the drug again.
