liu slept until noon on saturday even though her friend was counting on her to help with her history project that morning. liu enjoyed sleeping in and didnt consider the consequences. her actions may be best described by which principle? (1 point) driving principle. pleasure principle. biological principle. psychological principle.

Explanation:

The pleasure principle, a concept in psychology, refers to seeking immediate gratification and avoiding discomfort. Liu chose to sleep (immediate pleasure) over helping her friend, ignoring potential negative consequences (discomfort). The driving principle is more about internal urges driving behavior in a broader sense not as specific as the pleasure - seeking here. The biological principle would relate more to physical biological needs like hunger, thirst etc. The psychological principle is too broad.

Answer:

pleasure principle.
