This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:
A. response reinforcing
B. dissonance
C. balance
D. feedback
E. fear appeal
Answer:
In an attempt to use B. dissonance to convince people to stop smoking, government officials have proposed removing all brand identification from packs of cigarettes, replacing it with graphic images of damaged lungs and cancerous mouths.
Explanation:
It is natural for us to try to remain in a state of cognitive consistency in order to function mentally in the real world. Cognitive consistency is a state of harmony between our beliefs and our behaviors. On the other hand, <u>cognitive dissonance is the discomfort we feel when our beliefs and behaviors are not in harmony. That happens when we receive new information that goes against our previous belief.</u>
<u>By replacing brand identification with graphic images or damaged lungs, officials are trying to provoke cognitive dissonance in smokers</u>. Once they see the pictures and receive the information that smoking is the cause behind those diseases, they begin to question their own behavior. <u>Suddenly, smoking may feel less enjoyable, since they are aware that their actions are causing them to get sick.</u>

conflict theory
Explanation:
Conflict theory was concepted by Karl Marx. He claimed that society is in the state of a perpetual conflict as there is a competition for the limited resources available in the society. It says that the social order is caused by power and domination, rather than conformity and consensus.
In the context, Dr. Moffat, who is a fictional sociologist is doing a study in parenting. He claims that parents tend to push hard their sons in the education and career more than their daughters. Because of that there is a differences in pay among men and women within the same field also.
Thus, Dr. Moffat's study falls in the conflict theory frameworks where he claims that there is always a conflict between the men and women in the society and this is greatly influenced by the parenting practice.
Hence the answer is Conflict theory
