Several of your friends play basketball at the park on the weekends. Your buddy, Tai-Yii, is a good player, but he happens to let the ball slip by accident when he attempts to dribble. After the dribbling mess-up, Tai-Yii goes back to the sideline and continues to practice his dribbling over and over again.

a. How would a cognitive psychologist interpret Tai-Yii's repeated dribbling attempts?

b. Tai-Yii has seen other people dribble perfectly, so he tries to model their dribbling.

c.Tai-Yii is motivated to dribble perfectly and knows that practice makes perfect.

d.Tai-Yii has repressed fears of round objects and through introspection knows
that the only way to get better is to face the fear.
