ANALYSIS OF THE QUESTIONS WITH EVIDENCE
Question 1:
What are the psychological constructs and their overall relationship the paper
addresses?
a) The relationship between non-zero-sum beliefs and cooperation
b) The relationship between zero-sum beliefs and prejudice
c) The relationship between helping behaviour and well-being
d) The relationship between zero-sum beliefs and willingness to help
Article Evidence:
“How do zero-sum beliefs affect people’s willingness to help their peers and
colleagues?” (Chernyak-Hai & Davidai, 2022, pp. 2466).
Question 2:
What is the independent variable in the relationship between zero-sum beliefs and
autonomy-oriented help and dependency -orientated help?
a) Autonomy-oriented help
b) dependency-oriented help
c) autonomy-oriented help and dependency oriented help
d) zero-sum beliefs
Article Evidence:
Title = The Effect of Zero-Sum Beliefs on Help Giving
The effect of the (Independent variable) on the (dependent variable)
THEREFORE THE INDEPENDENT VARIABLE = ZERO-SUM BELIEFS
WHAT ARE VARIAIBLES ANYWAYS?
EXAMPLE: (Time Spent Studying) causes a change in (Test Score).
(Independent variable) causes a change in (dependent variable)
That means that the test score will depend on the time spent studying.
Therefore the DEPENDENT VARIABLE is the test score.
The INDEPENDENT VARIABLE is the time spent studying.
We see that "Time Spent Studying" must be the independent variable and "Test
Score" must be the dependent variable because the sentence doesn't make sense
