normative: Establishing, relating to, or deriving from a standard or norm, esp. of behavior</p>
just the fact the answer had NORM in it, should have immediately eliminated the possibilty of it being right</p>
@Hangernator
88 + (50*(11/14)) = ~127.28 for you</p>
Am I calculating this correctly?</p>
The hormones question.
5 hormones. 2 of them were insulin and melatonin. </p>
who knows</p>
i agree. @ idonteven.
So are you going with original and valuable?
Also @premed, agree with you about the lack of conservation</p>
For the sensorimotor question it specifically said that the kid COULDN’T tell that volume remained consistent. So going by that any period before concrete operational should be good. The only other option is the one where the girl threw the toys, but I’m not sure that has anything to do with Piaget’s theory.</p>
@ibworldstudent
Oh right! The question asked about response due to environmental light conditions?</p>
melatonin was correct i believe about the light. every1 else agree?</p>
So what’s the prediction for the the cut off for a 5?
Because some of the MC questions were just confusing.
For the sensorimotor, I put that the kid throwing the ball back.</p>
@pentupenguin
The girl threw the toy everytime her sister went to retrieve it for her. We can infer that the child, once she threw the toy, thought the object disappeared.</p>
Or I guess you can interpret that as anger issues in a child haha. (I thought it was that at first)</p>
Or you could interpret that the child was lazy and made her sister get the ball.</p>
if you use the formula above, how many points for a 5?</p>
normative- pertaining to giving directives or rules. it all depends where you look</p>
creativity generally pertains to some goal or objective, thus normative makes sense</p>
@actstudent
I think the formula should work (it weighs the MC as 2/3 of the test and essays as 1/3)</p>
I would guesstimate getting 80 MC and 5’s on both essays results in a borderline 5. (Using the formula, that gives us a 115.7, so a little higher than cutoff?)</p>
@UsernameInvalid
I kind of see where you’re getting at.
I put normative/divergent as well, but I’m going to count it as wrong when I estimate my score haha.</p>
@meatkabob u think original and novel?</p>
For the hormone one I was stuck between melatonin and prolactin. I marked melatonin, but changed answer to prolactin.</p>
@actstudent
I think it was original and valuable</p>
I’m actually very caught in between right now. I’m only debating the two because even though normative seems to contradict the question, divergence is really really important in the topic of creativity.</p>
And also all the terms were actual psychological terms except for original/valuable. Maybe valuable was a term but original just seems too… easy? I dont know.</p>
Wow. I think the answer was indeed melatonin. I’m really worried about my score now. From the questions we’ve discussed, I’ve missed around 5 already :(</p>
Creativity has to involve divergent thinking, and normative to follow norms. Normative doesn’t necessary imply normal, rather it prevents abnormality. That’s what I think. I put divergent and normative. I’m pretty confident about that answer.</p>
The hormone was melatonin. While I never learned that in my psych class, we had to learn a huge list of hormones for AP Bio. Melatonin is produced by the pineal gland and controls circadian rhythms.</p>
