Theodore is neurotic, distrustful, and a little bit paranoid. “Wary” would be an excellent word to describe his personality. According to the principles of reciprocal determinism, how will the environments Theodore gravitates toward influence the behaviors he exhibits?
A) Theodore is likely to seek secure environments (such as his locked bedroom), which in turn reinforce his behaviors (avoiding interactions with others).
B) Theodore is likely to seek emotionally neutral environments (such as a national park), which in turn will allow him to align his behaviors with his personality.
C) Theodore is likely to seek uncertain environments (such as sprawling, crowded events), so he can sharpen his detection skills (noting malicious intent in others).
D) Theodore is likely to seek uncontrolled environments (such as underground dance parties), so he can confirm his suspicious conclusions (that others are out to get him).
A) Theodore is likely to seek secure environments (such as his locked bedroom), which in turn reinforce his behaviors (avoiding interactions with others).
