Which of the following best describes bandura’s ideas about the relationship between behavior, cognition, and environment? a. the environment and cognitions jointly influence behavior. b. cognitions influence behaviors that, in turn, influence the environment. c. behaviors influence cognitions that, in turn, influence the environment. d. the environment influences cognitions and behavior. e. cognitions, behaviors, and the environment mutually influence each other.

The correct answer is indeed letter E. Cognitions, behaviors, and the environment mutually influence each other.

Explanation:

According to Albert Bandura's social-cognitive theory, there is a continuous and mutual interaction between one's behaviors, the environment, and personal factors (mainly cognition). Those three factors are the triad of his reciprocal determinism. Prior to Bandura's theory, children were seen as passive recipients of environmental influences, which made them completely moldable. According to reciprocal determinism, cognition, environment, and behavior are constantly interacting and influencing one another. Of course, they do not exert equal measures of influence. That will change according to the moment and situation. Anyhow, his ideas cleared the way to the realization that, the same way environment can affect behavior, behavior can also affect and change the environment.

this null effect is caused by a weak manipulation and ineffective internal validity. in a scientific study, as the one dr. morimoto is trying to perfom, internal validity refers to the confidence placed in the cause-effect relationship and to how well an experiment is done and able to eliminate confounding variables.
