Answer:

can be defined as being the process of people acquiring information or skills through the interaction of their environments; essentially, this is the process of people learning from trial and error—that is, through the outcomes and/or consequences of past experiences.

The performance of people during the learning process is affected by variables such as genetic predispositions, motivation through some type of rewards, and stresses—all of which result in reactions to these variables.

Genetic predispositions as a variable: includes intelligence as a factor being passed down from parent to offspring

Motivation through some type of reward: includes receiving instant gratification as a trade for doing something

Stresses: includes dealing with life pressures (such as lack of time) and having to make decisions while in the midst of these pressures
