Question 1 • CUSD Psychology (5.0)

A stimulus with a low predictive value means that __________.

Answer
A
it is harder to predict when a consequence of a stimuli will occur
B
it is easy to predict when a consequence of a stimuli will occur
C
a consequence will not follow a particular stimulus
D
a consequence will most likely follow a particular stimulus

Explanation

A stimulus has low predictive value when it gives little information about whether or when a consequence will occur. It is therefore harder to predict when the consequence will happen. This does not mean the consequence never follows the stimulus, so choice C is too absolute.
