Acts of Apostles Chapters

1 When Pentecost day came round, they had all met together,

2 when suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of a violent wind which filled the entire house in which they were sitting;

3 and there appeared to them tongues as of fire; these separated and came to rest on the head of each of them.

4 They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves.

5 Now there were devout men living in Jerusalem from every nation under heaven,

6 and at this sound they all assembled, and each one was bewildered to hear these men speaking his own language.

7 They were amazed and astonished. 'Surely,' they said, 'all these men speaking are Galileans?

8 How does it happen that each of us hears them in his own native language?

9 Parthians, Medes and Elamites; people from Mesopotamia, Judaea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,

10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya round Cyrene; residents of Rome-

11 Jews and proselytes alike -- Cretans and Arabs, we hear them preaching in our own language about the marvels of God.'

12 Everyone was amazed and perplexed; they asked one another what it all meant.

13 Some, however, laughed it off. 'They have been drinking too much new wine,' they said.

14 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven and addressed them in a loud voice: 'Men of Judaea, and all you who live in Jerusalem, make no mistake about this, but listen carefully to what I say.

15 These men are not drunk, as you imagine; why, it is only the third hour of the day.

16 On the contrary, this is what the prophet was saying:

17 In the last days -- the Lord declares -- I shall pour out my Spirit on all humanity. Your sons and daughters shall prophesy, your young people shall see visions, your old people dream dreams.

18 Even on the slaves, men and women, shall I pour out my Spirit.

19 I will show portents in the sky above and signs on the earth below.

20 The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the day of the Lord comes, that great and terrible Day.

21 And all who call on the name of the Lord will be saved.

22 'Men of Israel, listen to what I am going to say: Jesus the Nazarene was a man commended to you by God by the miracles and portents and signs that God worked through him when he was among you, as you know.

23 This man, who was put into your power by the deliberate intention and foreknowledge of God, you took and had crucified and killed by men outside the Law.

24 But God raised him to life, freeing him from the pangs of Hades; for it was impossible for him to be held in its power since,

25 as David says of him: I kept the Lord before my sight always, for with him at my right hand nothing can shake me.

26 So my heart rejoiced my tongue delighted; my body, too, will rest secure,

27 for you will not abandon me to Hades or allow your holy one to see corruption.

28 You have taught me the way of life, you will fill me with joy in your presence.

29 'Brothers, no one can deny that the patriarch David himself is dead and buried: his tomb is still with us.

30 But since he was a prophet, and knew that God had sworn him an oath to make one of his descendants succeed him on the throne,

31 he spoke with foreknowledge about the resurrection of the Christ: he is the one who was not abandoned to Hades, and whose body did not see corruption.

32 God raised this man Jesus to life, and of that we are all witnesses.

33 Now raised to the heights by God's right hand, he has received from the Father the Holy Spirit, who was promised, and what you see and hear is the outpouring of that Spirit.

34 For David himself never went up to heaven, but yet he said: The Lord declared to my Lord, take your seat at my righthand,

35 till I have made your enemies your footstool.

36 'For this reason the whole House of Israel can be certain that the Lord and Christ whom God has made is this Jesuswhom you crucified.'

37 Hearing this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, 'What are we to do, brothers?'

38 'You must repent,' Peter answered, 'and every one of you must be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

39 The promise that was made is for you and your children, and for all those who are far away, for all those whom the Lordour God is calling to himself.'

40 He spoke to them for a long time using many other arguments, and he urged them, 'Save yourselves from this perverse generation.'

41 They accepted what he said and were baptised. That very day about three thousand were added to their number.

42 These remained faithful to the teaching of the apostles, to the brotherhood, to the breaking of bread and to the prayers.

43 And everyone was filled with awe; the apostles worked many signs and miracles.

44 And all who shared the faith owned everything in common;

45 they sold their goods and possessions and distributed the proceeds among themselves according to what each one needed.

46 Each day, with one heart, they regularly went to the Temple but met in their houses for the breaking of bread; they shared their food gladly and generously;

47 they praised God and were looked up to by everyone. Day by day the Lord added to their community those destined to be saved.

Sociology Q:

The issues of g-a-y adoption is a timely and relevant sociological phenomena. Many g-a-y men and women, in couples and not, are raising children in America. It is estimated that approximately three million children are being raised in homes with g-a-y parents. Many of them are raised by their biological parents, but many are adopted. Despite the inconsistent adoption laws throughout the country, this trend does not seem to be slowing. In addition to the unequal parenting and marriage laws that still exist, g-a-y parents face discrimination on a number of levels.

The film Daddy & Papa chronicles the lives of some of these families. Although you can not view the entire film online, you can view five clips from the film http://www.daddyandpapa.com/  where you can also read an overview of the film. Additionally, please visit http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/daddyandpapa/families.html  to read biographies & quotes from the families that are featured in the film. As you are reviewing this information and the film clips pay close attention to issues of gender, race & sexuality as they are experienced by the parents and children in the film.

Consider the following questions for your discussion:

What are some of the specific challenges that g-a-y parents face? How does the sexual orientation of parents impact the socialization experiences of children? How do g-a-y parents deal with the additional challenges of inter-racial adoption? How are the experiences of these families a reflection of some of the concepts of gender or racial discrimination and heterosexism? How can society more effectively support these families?

1-If an investigator is systematically varying the delay between the instrumental response and the subsequent delivery of the reinforcer, she is investigating

       
a-temporal contiguity in instrumental conditioning.

       
b-response reinforcer contingency.

       
c-negative contrast.

       
d-delayed conditioning procedures.

2-According to Thorndike what is the function of a reinforcer?

       
a-To strengthen the association between a stimulus and a response.

       
b-To strengthen the association between a reinforcer and a response.

       
c-To strengthen the association between a stimulus and a reinforcer.

       
d-To reduce the drives that force animals to action.

3-Which of the following correctly describes the phenomenon of 'blocking'?

       
a-Prior conditioning with CS1 increases responding to the added stimulus CS2.

       
b-Prior conditioning with CS1 prevents conditioning to the added stimulus CS2.

       
c-Prior conditioning with CS1 is blocked by the new added stimulus CS2.

       
d-Prior conditioning with CS1 is enhanced by the new added stimulus.

4-In the Lieberman et al. (1979) study just after the instrumental response, an intense noise (marker) was presented. Under these circumstances, the instrumental learning became resistant to the delay of reinforcement because

       
a-the marker acts as a conditioned stimulus.

       
b-the marker increases the drive level of the organism.

       
c-the marker increases the activity of the organism.

       
d-the marker helps to distinguish the instrumental response from other responses.

5-The blocking effect indicates that for the establishment of an association between a CS and a US,

       
a-contiguity between a CS and a US is enough.

       
b-US intensity is very important.

       
c-contiguity between a CS and a US is not enough.

       
d-CS type is very important.

6-In which of the contingencies below does the instrumental response procedure an appetitive stimulus?

       
a-Negative reinforcement.

       
b-Punishment.

       
c-Positive reinforcement.

       
d-Omission training.

7-Which of the following findings strongly supports the compensatory response model?

       
a-The finding that the nature of the CR is identical to the UR.

       
b-The finding that in many classical conditioning situations involving drugs as the US, the form of the CR is opposite the forms of the UR.

       
c-The finding that in higher order conditioning sometimes S-R rather than S-S types of associations are observed.

       
d-The finding that in sensory preconditioning always S-S type associations are observed

8-Under which of the following conditions will the CS be associated with the US most rapidly?

       
a-If the CS is familiar, relatively weak, and related to the US

       
b-If the CS is novel, relatively intense, and related to the US.

       
c-If the CS is novel, relatively weak, and not related to the US.

       
d-If the CS is novel, relatively intense, and not related to the US.
