Answer:

The researchers were studying change blindness.

Explanation:

In the "door study", participants were exposed to major visual changes. They would be giving a man directions when two other men walked between them carrying a door. At this moment, the original man asking for directions would walk away carrying the door while another man replaced him. Approximately 50% of participants did not notice the replacement. That phenomenon is called change blindness, and it usually takes place when a person's attention is not focused on visual details. Since the participants in the study were more concerned with giving directions than with their interlocutor's appearance, they wouldn't notice the change.

A child sees a zebra for the first time and calls it a horse, fitting something new into their existing schema. This is an examp
taurus [48]

Answer:

1. This is an example of assimilation.

2. This is an example of accommodation.

Explanation:

The concepts of assimilation and accommodation were introduced by psychologist Jean Piaget. According to Piaget, <u>assimilation happens when we interpret our new experiences in terms of our existing schemas.</u> That means we already possess ideas and information about the world and, when presented with something new, we place it under the same categories that already exist for us. That is what the child is doing when he/she calls the zebra a horse.

<u>Accommodation, on the other hand, takes place when we change our schema after new information is received, so that we can accommodate it.</u> That is what the child does when he/she creates a new category for the animal - it is no longer a horse, it is a zebra.

Suppose 60% of a population of part-time college students is female. In a simulation, we collected thousands of random samples f
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Explanation: The mean of the sample proportions that will be obtained from simulating thousands of random samples from a population of college student will be 0.6. This is so because :

The random sample obtained for use in the simulation were randomly selected from the population of college students. Randomized selection from the population will provide an unbiased selection of students used in the sample Therefore giving a good approximate representation of the population proportion.

Also, the size of the sample population impacts the ability of the sample statistics to generalize on the population data. The larger the size of the random samples adopted, the closer our approximation about the population. Here, with a random sample size running to thousands, the mean of the sample proportion will be just as close or equal to the population proportion.
