Greta is a researcher interested in whether science vocabulary supports science learning. In 2002, Greta measured the number of science words that 100 different 5-year-old children knew. Twelve years later, in 2019, those 100 children are now graduating high school and they just took a standardized science test. Greta asks them if she can access their scores on the standardized science test and all 100 individuals agreed. When Greta plots the number of science words the 100 individuals knew at age 5 against the individuals’ scores on the standardized science test at age 17, she observed the following graph: Greta’s data indicates that there is ____________ between science vocabulary at age 5 and standardized science test performance at age 17.

Two small rural high schools – LeRoy and Caledonia – had historically been huge rivals. They played in the same football league and one of the two schools always won the regional championship. The players on the two teams consistently held many prejudicial attitudes towards one another, which often turned into physical fights when they played one another. Starting this year though, for budgetary reasons, these two schools were merged into a single larger school and the football players from LeRoy and Caledonia now found themselves on the same team. Initially the players from the two towns were antagonistic toward one another, but by the end of the season, most of those issues had disappeared. This would be an example of what method to reduce prejudice and discrimination?

While Dana was walking down the street one night, someone grabbed her purse and ran off. Dana didn’t get a particularly good look at the person because of how dark it was. She thought they were of roughly medium height and build (maybe 5’7” and 140 pounds). She couldn’t see any more detail than that though, including what gender the person was. When she got back to her apartment and told her roommate what happened, her roommate immediately asked, “Well, what did the man look like?” Dana said that it was dark and hard to tell. The next day Dana went to file a police report. When the officer asked Dana to describe the suspect, Dana not only described the individual as male, she also described the individual as being slightly taller and larger (5’9”; 160 pounds) that what she had actually seen the night before. The change in Dana’s memory of the suspect based upon her roommate asking about the event is consistent with what memory issue?
