A conflict in which a person must choose between two undesirable options is called:

Michael grows up in a home where his father is generally unloving toward his mother

He observes his father yell and degrade his mother, and he notices that his mother never resists this treatment. Based on the work of Bandura, what might we predict about Michael's own relationships when he is older? a) Michael will probably treat women very well, as he rebels against the behaviors he saw in his father. b) Michael may treat women with discourtesy and disrespect, as he repeats the behavior he saw in his father. c) Michael will probably have no relationships with women, as his father has taught him that relationships are not worth having. d) Michael will always be very distant from his father, as he has learned that his father does not care about anyone but himself.

Which of these messages would probably be most persuasive?

a. Even a small contribution can help victims of floods and hurricanes. b. Thousands of people lost everything they had in floods and hurricanes. c. Huge amounts of money are necessary if we are to help victims of floods and hurricanes. d. Thousands of flood and hurricane victims are counting on help from you personally.
