What is explained by the opponent-process theory?

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
Hering first suggested the opponent-process theory in 1920, and it was further expanded upon by Hurvich & Jameson in 1957 and Devalois & Devlois in 1975. It suggests that our perception depends on a blue-yellow and red-green system of visualization in addition to the traditional trichromatic idea of visions, which we never truly see. According to this theory, opposing neurons that react to specific wavelengths in the visual spectrum regulate excitatory and inhibitory responses.

Piaget's sensorimotor stage starts at.

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
The sensorimotor stage, according to Piaget's theory of cognitive development, lasts from birth until age two. The child transitions from learning through the senses and reflexes to planning activities in accordance with their environment at this period. There are six distinct substages within the sensorimotor system:
reflexes
primary circular reactions
secondary circular reactions
coordination of reactions
tertiary circular reactions
early representational thought

The kid progresses through these substages from simple stimulus-motor reactions to mental processing.

The sensory threshold's "absolute" value is.

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
The human senses are capable of picking up on a wide range of tiny stimuli when conditions are ideal. However, the level of background stimulation present affects the susceptibility to stimuli. For instance, unless a noisy party is going on inside the structure at the same time, one may readily hear the rain pouring on a tin roof.

For what is Karen Horney well-known?

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
Doctor and psychoanalyst Karen Horney. Although she was a follower of Sigmund Freud, Horny did not share his emphasis on biological causes; instead, she concentrated on cultural and social variables in human psychology. Horny claimed that anxiety is a result of a person's inability to cope with a hostile environment. She particularly criticized Freud's notion of female "penis envy," contending that women truly envy men's cultural advantages in society (status independence, freedom, etc.) rather than their physiological advantages.

It is common to see pre-conventional morality in...

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
The Theory of Moral Development, developed by Lawrence Kohlberg, has six phases and three levels. Stage 1 of pre-conventional morality, "Obedience and Punishment," is part of the first level. In order to avoid punishment, people follow the rules as they are considered as established at this point. Children at stage two, which is referred to as "Individualism and Exchange," must consider the opinions and requirements of others. Although adults are capable of using various kinds of thinking, this idea contends that children are more frequently seen using these phases.

It is a conversation between you and a friend. Throughout the conversation, what kind of memory are you primarily using?

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
Information can be stored in and retrieved using memory. Long-term memory is comparatively persistent, non-conscious memory is (as implied) not present in conscious awareness, and sensory memory is transient. However, short-term memory is a type of memory that does not store information for long-term use, but rather allows for the retention of information for usage for a brief period of time. It is because of this short-term memory that communication with another person is feasible. Just long enough to complete the interaction, that is.

In which Piaget's phases of cognitive development occur is object persistence.

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
When a kid can understand that something or someone still exists even when it is out of sight, they have achieved object permanence, which is the most significant milestone of the sensorimotor stage. This comprehension of object persistence develops gradually throughout a sequence of six substages. A kid typically reaches substage 6—which arises from age 18 months on—after beginning the first substage (ages 0–4 months) with no awareness of an object's presence after it vanishes from sight.
