Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A scheme is a mental structure or framework that helps an individual organize and interpret information based on past experiences. In this case, Mia has developed a mental structure for kicking that she applies to different situations, which fits the definition of a scheme. Egocentrism refers to the inability to take the perspective of others, intonation refers to the way someone says something (such as tone of voice), and expressive style refers to a characteristic way of expressing oneself. None of these options accurately describe Mia's mental structure for kicking.
