Reply to: Between-subject design is a design in which different participants are assigned to only one condition within the research. Some advantages of using this type of design would be that any difference that is witnessed would be due to the manipulation of the variable and not from contamination from outside factors. Another advantage would be that the random assignment of subjects helps drop the bias that can be created. Finally, between-subject design can supply valuable information that other types of experiments cannot (Myers & Hensen, 2012). This type of design can supply information that within-subject design lacks. The first is random assignment. Random assignment occurs when participants are randomly assigned to groups. The next is time. Between-subjects design can be run quickly and is ideal for gathering results for time-sensitive issues.

: Gabriel Tarde’s theory on imitation is still legitimate today, to some degree, in that individuals do imitate those in power over them. This is seen mainly in adolescents. As people grow, they imitate their parents. When someone is raised in a loving environment, they grow up showing love to their families. However, when people are raised in a home with hate, bigotry, racism, or where the thought of killing those who think differently should be terminated is normal, this is how these individuals will act. Tarde believed that it is purely imitation that makes a person a criminal. : Lastly, the theories of Albert Bandura and Edwin Sutherland helped establish the learning perspective. Bandura’s social learning theory implies by watching someone get rewarded for an action, someone is likely to model that behavior (Harmening & Gamez, 2016). In his differential association theory, Sutherland claimed when an individual becomes associated with a group, they begin to mimic and learn their behaviors (Bartol & Bartol, 2014).

The HFCT strength is its use of exercises which reshape habits and behavioral patterns of individuals within relationships. Worthington writes in his HFCT manual: “Maintaining a good marriage, improving a marriage, and solving problems in a marriage require that the partners exert effort–that they work on the marriage. Solving problems in marriage through marital therapy requires that the couple work on the tasks that the therapist assigns–both within the therapy hour and particularly between sessions. Inspire the couple to perspire to achieve what they aspire to. You cannot browbeat or coerce them into a work ethic.The strategy is faith working through love. HOPE-focused marital therapists should never consider themselves marital technicians or problem-solvers. Therapists are ministers of love. Your task: draw distinctions between Hope and Grace–the model articulated by Ripley compared to the one articulated by Sells. We have worked together in integrating our two approaches (that will be our focus in Dec). Your task now is to identify the benefits and shortcomings of each.

For this activity, you need to visit a preschool or early elementary school classroom, preferably when children are there, so that you may observe them interacting with the toys; however, you should also try to see the classroom when it is empty, so you can examine the room carefully. Take notes on all the games, toys, and activities, as well as the other materials posted on the walls and stored on the toy/book shelves (e.g., Playdough, calendars, and storybooks). Note, specifically, what among these things is available to help children overcome types of immature thinking (e.g., centration, egocentrism, precausal thinking, nonconservation, irreversible thinking, and transductive reasoning) and develop logical thinking typical in middle childhood (e.g., seriation, transitive inference, classification, and conservation), as described by Piaget. For each game/activity/material, name it and then describe which preoperational type of thinking it addresses and how it helps the child to gain one of the types of operational thinking. Support what you write using the textbook and scholarly articles.
