i don't know :/

Thank you for helping me, I appreciate it.

1. The correct answer is D. Intellectualism. The goal of psychology is to understand, describe, and explain human thoughts, emotions, and behaviors through scientific methods such as measurement, prediction, and control.

2. The correct answer is C. Explain. Psychologists need to understand and explain the phenomenon they are interested in through research and observation in order to gain knowledge and insight into it.

3. The correct answer is A. Casual observation. When observing animals in the wild, researchers often rely on casual observation to gather data and make observations without intervening or manipulating the natural environment.

4. The correct answer is C. Following all of the steps of the scientific method. Psychological research is considered scientific when researchers follow a systematic approach to ask research questions, formulate hypotheses, conduct experiments or studies, analyze data, and draw conclusions based on empirical evidence.

5. The question seems to be incomplete.

6. The correct answer is B. Designing the experiment. After identifying the research question or problem, researchers need to design an experiment or study to test their hypotheses and gather data.

7. Psychologists often conduct research to support, refine, or challenge existing theories. This helps to advance the field of psychology and develop a deeper understanding of human behavior.

8. The correct answer is D. Statistical analysis. To test the hypothesis that children under the age of five are more likely to exhibit aggressive behavior in groups of ten or more, statistical analysis can be used to analyze and interpret quantitative data from observations or experiments.

9. The correct answer is A. The design of the study. It is important to collect data according to the specific design and methodology outlined in the research study to ensure accuracy and validity of the findings.

10. In psychology and everyday life, people research to explain and understand the factors that influence and change behavior. By conducting research, individuals seek to gain knowledge and insights into why people behave the way they do and what factors contribute to behavior change.
