In Image-Scanning Procedures,evidence Suggests That Demand Characteristics Are

question 8

Multiple Choice

In image-scanning procedures,evidence suggests that demand characteristics are

• A)likely to be the reason why participants show the pattern of longer response times with longer scans,because participants draw on their knowledge of the world and "simulate" that experience.
• B)not the likely the cause of why participants show the pattern of longer response times.
• C)likely to be the reason why participants show the pattern of longer response times with shorter scans,because participants calculate and base their reaction times on how long they expect it would take to complete the task.
• D)not the likely reason why participants show the pattern of longer response times with longer scans,but experiments are unable to rule out the demand character explanation.

Definitions:

Chemical Diffusion

The process by which molecules move from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration, driven by random particle movements.

Transmission of Information

The process through which data is sent from one place or individual to another, typically involving encoding, sending, receiving, and decoding the information.

Synaptic Transmission

The process by which neurotransmitters are released by one neuron and received by another, allowing for communication between neurons.

Action Potential

A temporary reversal of the electrical polarity of the membrane of a nerve cell or muscle cell, leading to the transmission of signals along the nerve or muscle fiber.
