Question 2

Which of the following show accessibility effects due to priming?
A) Positive or negative personality traits

Question 7

Which of the following best describes common arguments against pitting ecological and cognitive approaches directly against each other?
A) Lack of empirical support for either approach
B) Inability to falsify both meta-theories
C) Difficulty distinguishing between perception and cognition in practice
D) Both B and C

Accepted Answer

Both options B and C represent common arguments against pitting ecological and cognitive approaches directly against each other. It is often difficult to distinguish between perception and cognition in practice, and both meta-theories are not easily falsifiable. Empirical support is not necessarily a crucial part of these arguments.

Question 8

Though most research shows participants to assimilate ambiguous behavior to primed traits, which of the following shows a lack of assimilation?
A) Experimental demand
B) Contrast Effects
C) Verbal overshadowing
D) Ecological perception

Accepted Answer

Contrast effects occur when participants are exposed to multiple stimuli at once, and they perceive the differences between them rather than blending or assimilating them. This means that they do not assimilate ambiguous behavior to primed traits but instead contrast it against other behaviors they have observed.
