Question 17 • Personal Psychology 1

“I don’t care if my kids cheat on tests,” a parent says. “If the other kids can’t figure out how to get the answers in advance, that’s their problem.” What would a psychologist call this parent’s behavior?

Answer
A
antisocial
B
antibiotic
C
prosocial
D
probiotic

Explanation

The parent is accepting and encouraging cheating, which disregards rules and harms fairness for other students. A psychologist would describe behavior that violates social norms and the rights of others as antisocial. “Antibiotic” and “probiotic” are medical terms, while prosocial behavior helps others or benefits the community.
