Question 1 0.5 / 0.5 pts Which of the following is most likely an example of the Pygmalion effect? Sheila went to college to study accounting and got her first entry-level job right after graduating. However, as she gained more experience at the law firm where she worked, she became more knowledgeable about tax law and decided to make a commitment to go to law school and become a tax lawyer. A seventh-grade student is tempted to cheat on an exam but talks himself out of it because he is afraid he will get caught and will fail the course. A researcher predicts that playing violent video games can improve players’ spatial cognition.  He conducts an experiment and unconsciously treats players in the violent group condition differently, which inadvertently increases their spatial cognition scores.  A coworker came to work extremely happy and everyone in the group starts to feel happy and excited. Question 2 0.5 / 0.5 pts What do we know about enrolling children in preschools before they begin formal schooling (which usually takes place at around 5 or 6 years of age)? Children who attended any preschools before they began formal schooling were better off cognitively and socially compared to children who stayed at home. Children who stayed at home before they began formal schooling show better emotional and cognitive competencies compared to children who went to preschools, even if these were high-quality preschools. Preschool education has no cognitive benefits for children. Children who attended preschool before they began formal schooling were better off cognitively and socially compared to children who stayed at home.

Question 1 1.5 / 1.5 pts   What are some known moderators that help reduce the negative effect of poverty? personal control     optimism     coping strategies     reading self-help books   Question 2 1.5 / 1.5 pts How does social causation theory explain the main causes of poverty?   According to this theory, people with limited social skills are less likely to graduate from high school, go to college and obtain a high-paying job.   It states that people who lack social skills are more likely to commit crime and be incarcerated, which then leads them to be unemployed or underemployed.     According to this theory, social institutions, such as welfare programs, create incentives to keep people unemployed.  It suggests that societal institutions, laws, and regulations create barriers and limitations that then make it difficult for some people to succeed or get out of poverty.      Question 3 1.5 / 1.5 pts Which of the following is LEAST likely to drop out of high school prior to graduation in the U.S.?    a teenaged African American male a teenaged Caucasian American female     a teenaged Asian American male     a teenaged Hispanic American male   Contact
