Answer
10. (B) Behavioral The use of rewards, punishments, and positive reinforcement is a key concept in behavioral psychology, which focuses on observable behaviors and how they're influenced by the environment.11. (D) Behavioral This statement reflects the behavioral approach, particularly the idea that behavior can be shaped and conditioned through environmental factors, as famously proposed by behaviorists like John B. Watson.12. (B) Wundt Wilhelm Wundt is considered the father of psychology because he established the first psychology laboratory in Leipzig, Germany, in 1879, marking the formal beginning of psychology as a separate and distinct scientific discipline.13. (C) Structuralists wish to divide the mind into mental elements while functionalists believe behavior helps an organism adapt to the environment. Structuralism focuses on breaking down mental processes into their basic components, whereas functionalism emphasizes the purpose of consciousness and behavior in helping organisms adapt to their environment.
