“Look both ways before you cross the street! Look left, right and left again!” These classic childhood _______ lessons are passed on from generation to generation. Yet traffic accidents remain one of the most common _______ of injuries and deaths for children around the world.

Past studies have found that youngsters are less good at _______ road dangers than adults, but Anat Meir, a lecturer in industrial engineering and management at Ben-Gurion University of the Negeve and the Holon Institute of Technology in Israel, wanted to decide exactly which behaviors lead to accidents, with the goal of finding ways to _______ them.

To do that without putting anyone in danger, she turned to virtual reality. In 2019 Meir and her colleagues simulated (模拟) 18 streets in Israel and used an eye-tracking device to study how 46 adults and children (ranging in age from seven to 13) evaluated when it was safe to cross. Children aged seven to nine, they found, exhibited the least _______ when crossing, typically deciding to step into the virtual road with little or no hesitation, even when their field of vision was limited. “We had parents looking on who were saying, ‘Wow, I cannot believe my child just crossed there!” Meir says.” It caused them to _______ their child’s road-crossing abilities.” The older children did not perform much _______ , though for different reasons. They often stayed on the curb (路缘) for an improper amount of time— a (n) _______ that they are less able to distinguish between safe and dangerous situations than adults— and in interviews did not express an understanding of how _______ such as car speed and field of vision affect crossing safety.

Some ________ do seem to improve crossing success. In Meir’s most recent study, described in Accident Analysis & Prevention, two dozen seven- to nine-year-olds experienced 40 minutes of danger-detection training. Afterward, Meir and her colleagues ________ trainees’ and control kids’ performances in the virtual road-crossing task. The children who ________ safety instructions were significantly better at crossing than the control subjects.

Next, Meir and policy makers aim to figure out how to ________ these findings to the real world. “These results are important because you cannot find solutions without a (n) ________ of the problem,” says Joseph Kearney, a professor of computer science at the University of Iowa. “Now it’s up to people to determine how they can develop ________ programs for children and for parents about good road-crossing habits.”

While people who are both trustworthy and capable are the most sought after when it comes to team assembly, friendliness and trustworthiness are often more important factors than ability.

“We assume that people are_________for important task forces and teams because of the knowledge, skills and abilities they bring to the table. However, this research suggests that people may often get picked because team members feel_________with them,” said Cynthia Maupin, assistant professor of organizational behavior and leadership in Binghamton University’s School of Management. “People may be willing to_________a bit in terms of performance in order to have a really positive team experience.”

Maupin and her colleagues focused on a group of MBA students to conduct their study. Students were_________ assigned to teams at the beginning of the semester to work on class projects and assignments. Toward the end of the semester, students were asked to form their own teams and _________why they selected each member of their group.

“We wanted to find out what people did to_________ to others that they might be someone who would be good to team up with in the future,” Maupin said.

The researchers_________looked at how students signaled their human capital, the ability to do their tasks well, and their social capital, the_________to which they were friendly and trustworthy, to other students by studying their use of either challenging or supportive voice:

●Challenging voice: Communicating in a way that challenges the present circumstances and is _________new ideas and efficiency.

●Supportive voice: Communicating in a way that __________ social ties and trust, and builds friendly unity of a team.

The researchers found that people who__________both abilities, through the use of challenging voice, and trustworthiness, through the use of supportive voice, were the most in-demand people when it came to__________teams.

“As might be expected, anyone who was very strong in terms of signaling both their human and social capital were extremely sought after. They’re doing all the right things to__________that they’re both trustworthy and a good worker,” Maupin said.

However, the researchers found that students who only exhibited social capital through__________voice were more sought after than those who only signaled their ability through the use of challenging voice.

“Our findings suggest that when people feel like they can trust you, even if you’re not__________ the best worker, they’re going to be more likely to want to work with you,” Maupin said. “They know that there are likely to be fewer interpersonal issues in that case.”
