The students enrolled in honors biology at a high school were given the task of using a spreadsheet program to investigate a topic in genetics. All students in the class had similar background knowledge of the topic. Some students in the class had no spreadsheet experience, Group R, and needed time to learn the program to complete the task. The rest of the students, Group S, had previous spreadsheet experience and typically took less time to complete the task. Each of the histograms below show the distribution of completion times, in minutes, for one of the two groups.

The figure presents 2 histograms, which are titled “Histogram 1,” and “Histogram 2.” The horizontal axis on both histograms is labeled “Completion Time,” and the numbers 35 through 115, in increments of 10, are indicated. The vertical axis on both histograms is labeled “Frequency,” and the numbers 0 through 14, in increments of 2, are indicated. The data represented by the bars are as follows. Note that all values are approximate.

Question 1 (a) Of the two histograms shown, I and II, which is more likely to be the distribution of completion times for the students in Group R? Justify your answer.

Question 2 (b) Describe the shape of a histogram created from the data of the two groups of students combined.

Question 3 (c) Consider the population of all students in honors biology classes in the high school’s state who are given the task of using the spreadsheet program to investigate the topic in genetics. The distribution of the completion times has a shape similar to the combined histogram of students at the high school, with mean 70 minutes and standard deviation 26.5 minutes. For random samples of 50 students taken from the population, describe the sampling distribution of the sample mean completion time.

Explain chunking, recency effect, and primacy effect in regards to short-term memory when more than nine items of unrehearsed in
Step2247 [10]
<span>Chunking increases the capacity of short-term memory by recoding information into more meaningful units. When large amounts of information are given, short-term memory usually remembers the first set of unrehearsed information (primacy) or the last set of unrehearsed information (recency), but few things from the middle.</span>

Two AP Psychology Questions - Best answer and explanation will receive Brainliest 1. High school students complete an essay each
Tasya [4]

Answer to Question 1:

The behaviour of the students who hastily write what they consider a "C" level essay after being repeatedly told they can't make an "A" or "B" is a consequence of Reinforcement.

The answer, therefore, is D.

Explanation:

Reinforcement in behavioural psychology refers to the process of encouraging or entrenching a belief system or pattern of behaviour. It can also be defined as any stimuli which stimulate a thought pattern and engrains the probability of a specific response to a particular stimulus. Reinforcements are usually more effective when it comes from a person of perceived to be in a position of authority.

The high school students were verbally programmed by the instructor, who has the authority to mark their scripts, into thinking they will never be able to make an "A" or a "B".  The result is that the students didn't even try to put in efforts that would have led to an A or a B because even if they did, the instructor has the power to ensure that no one score an "A" or a "B".

The challenge here is not that the students couldn't write "A" grade essays. In their mind, there was no point trying given that the ability lay with the instructor to ensure that what he said will happen. In any case, the instructors intended behavioural response was achieved.

2. The correct answer to the question of Acquisition and Extinction as indicated on the graph is B.

The strength of the response increases then decreases over time.

Acquisition happens when a neutral stimulus turns into a conditioned stimulus.

When a behavior begins to diminish or even disappear completely as a result of the gradual removal of a conditioned response,  extinction is said to have occurred.

Cheers!
