Document Summary
Your turn 2. 2: sitting outside the student center, josept sees a student with full hands drop her mobile phone. As she struggles to pick it up, he wonders what would motivate him to help and realizes that he would have helped had he been closer to the student. This inspires him to hypothesize that proximity influences the willingness to help someone in need. Your turn 2. 3: a market researcher collects reactions to a new cookie before it hits the marketplace. The researcher tells some participants that the cookie is low in calories, while other participants receive no information about the cookie. Next, each participant eats three cookies and then completes a questionnaire assessing their opinions. She has some of her students learn the words using a studying strategy she read about in a teaching journal. She has the rest of the students study using the approach she originally taught them.
