blending inheritance
Discredited theory that stated offspring traits were an "average" of the parents traits. For example, a red flower and white flower will produce a pink flower. In other words, the phenotypes (observable features) of the parents do not have to be average in the offspring.
Allele
A specific variation of a gene (made up of DNA)
allele frequencies
how common an allele is in a population
Based on this reasoning, we expect that higher homework task motivation and self-efficacy to focus on homework tasks will be associated with less frequent and shorter duration multitasking.
Does switching around between subjects you are studying count as multitasking? For example, let's say I study Biology for 15 minutes, and then switch to studying Calculus for 10 minutes. Don't some studies show that switching the subjects that you are studying (i.e., multitasking in this case) lead to better comprehension of both overall?
goal-directed behavior,
What about system-directed behavior? It's when you focus your attention on tangible steps to accomplish your goal, such as finding the ideal study environment, or reaching out to someone to ask for help, rather than solely focusing on the end result.
higher subjective fatigue will be associated with more frequent and longer duration multitasking.
Given this prediction, you are better off chunking out blocks of time to study and then taking breaks intermittently to prevent fatigue and prolonged multitasking
we anticipate NA to be linked to more frequent and longer duration multitasking behaviors, while we expect PA to be associated with less frequent and shorter duration multitasking behaviors.
Prediction: increased multitasking over a long period of time will decrease your mood, making you more likely to quit (i.e. seek an easier distraction).
