Recall that participants in an experiment described in the text (Toi & Batson, 1982) listened to an (alleged) radio interview in which a student in their introductory psychology class described an accident that caused her to fall behind in the course. Some participants were encouraged to empathize with “Carol,” whereas others were encouraged to listen objectively to the interview. Some participants in each of these two groups were led to believe that Carol would be returning to their psychology course; others were led to believe that she would finish out the term at home, and that they would never see her again. These researchers found that when participants ________, their decision to help was guided by ________.
   a.   empathized with Carol; social exchange concerns
   b.   listened objectively; their own personal experiences
c.   empathized with Carol; their own personal experiences
