Question 1

Lynn tells the teacher, "I don't care if I learn anything; I just want to get an A." According to research conducted by Carol Dweck, you should conclude that Lynn has what type of motivation?
◦ learning motivation
◦ performance motivation
◦ social motivation
◦ anti-learning motivation

Question 2

Suppose you learn that two children, a 10-year-old boy and a 10-year-old girl, have brains of quite different sizes, with the boy's brain being about 40% larger than the girl's brain. Which of the following conclusions would be the best to draw from this data?
◦ The girl most likely has something wrong with her brain, because it should be at least 10% larger than the boy's brain.
◦ The girl's brain most likely has something wrong with it, because it should be very close to the same size as the boy's brain at this age.
◦ The girl most likely was malnourished in early childhood, giving rise to a smaller-than-average brain.
◦ There is no reason for concern, since children's brain sizes can vary by as much as 50% without any appreciable difference in cognitive skills.
