Question

Which behaviour best demonstrates both high consistency and high distinctiveness?

1) Kristy always cries to the song "I'll be Seeing You", but only if it is while watching her favourite movie, "The Notebook".
2) Miguel always laughs at clowns whenever he sees one, whether it is at the circus, on the television, or in other encounters.
3) Raphael laughed at his pet turtle for the first time when it tripped and got stuck upside down on its shell.
4)ebra only lectured her son once when he failed his art class, not when he failed other classes.

Answer 1

Kristy's behavior of crying to a specific song while watching a specific movie represents both high consistency and high distinctiveness, as she always reacts this way in that context, which is unique to the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The behavior that best demonstrates both high consistency and high distinctiveness is the first option: Kristy always cries to the song "I'll be Seeing You", but only if it is while watching her favourite movie, "The Notebook". This behavior exhibits high consistency because Kristy consistently cries whenever she hears the song in the context of watching the movie. It shows high distinctiveness because this emotional response is specific to the song within the context of "The Notebook", implying that she does not exhibit the same behavior in response to other songs or while watching other movies. By comparison, the behaviors in the other options lack either the same level of consistency or distinctiveness across situations, or do not occur in a wide enough range of situations to assess distinctiveness properly.
