Bandura feels that most of our behavior is not controlled by immediate external reinforcement but is based on the accumulated results of earlier experiences. Our behavior is, therefore, regulated to a large extent by:
 
  a. acquired goals
  b. information processing
  c. anticipated or expectancy outcomes
  d. traditional learning

Question 2

When Bandura says we solve problems symbolically without resorting to overt trial-and-error behavior, it is because:
 
  a. we foresee the consequences of our behavior and modify our actions accordingly
  b. our inferior cognitive capacity allows us to forego a period of trial and error
  c. we do not wish to take the time to practice our behavior in a trial-and-error framework
  d. we cannot foresee a failure condition and therefore do not practice our behavior

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
