Social Desirability Bias is one possible reason for this discrepancy.

What is meant by social desirability?

The propensity for people to display themselves in a generally positive way is known as social desirability.

Why does social desirability bias happen?

When a sensitive subject is being covered in a survey or interview, social desirability bias occurs. Because the subject is too delicate for them, the responders will provide a response that is socially acceptable because they don't want to expose their genuine feelings.

What are the three approaches to minimize social desirability?

The randomized answer methodology, the bogus pipeline, self-administration of the questionnaire, and interviewer selection are only a few of the strategies available to lessen social desirability bias.

What ‘policy’ did the ruling in Dred Scott v. Sandford put in place?
Ede4ka [16]
The U.S. Supreme Court hands down its decision on Sanford v. Dred Scott, a case that intensified national divisions over the issue of slavery.

In 1834, Dred Scott, a slave, had been taken to Illinois, a free state, and then Wisconsin territory, where the Missouri Compromise of 1820 prohibited slavery. Scott lived in Wisconsin with his master, Dr. John Emerson, for several years before returning to Missouri, a slave state. In 1846, after Emerson died, Scott sued his master’s widow for his freedom on the grounds that he had lived as a resident of a free state and territory. He won his suit in a lower court, but the Missouri supreme court reversed the decision. Scott appealed the decision, and as his new master, J.F.A. Sanford, was a resident of New York, a federal court decided to hear the case on the basis of the diversity of state citizenship represented. After a federal district court decided against Scott, the case came on appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, which was divided along slavery and antislavery lines; although the Southern justices had a majority.

During the trial, the antislavery justices used the case to defend the constitutionality of the Missouri Compromise, which had been repealed by the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854. The Southern majority responded by ruling on March 6, 1857, that the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional and that Congress had no power to prohibit slavery in the territories. Three of the Southern justices also held that African Americans who were slaves or whose ancestors were slaves were not entitled to the rights of a federal citizen and therefore had no standing in court. These rulings all confirmed that, in the view of the nation’s highest court, under no condition did Dred Scott have the legal right to request his freedom. The Supreme Court’s verdict further inflamed the irrepressible differences in America over the issue of slavery, which in 1861 erupted with the outbreak of the American Civil War.

learning approaches to personality suggest that much of behavior is shaped primarily by forces beyond the individual's control—t
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

unconscious

Explanation:

Freud came to conclude that most of the behavior is driven by forces that are way out of our control and that they can be reduced to life (eros) or dead (Thanatos) drives- These forces are strong components that can shape our decisions and are seen in a metaphor:

The unconscious is the hidden part of the iceberg where we are just barely conscious of the surface while the hidden mental processes can be traced back to childhood experiences mostly. At least according to what Freud came to conclude, the unconscious mind is mainly a deposit of sex and destructive or aggressive drives that are impossible to express at the moment of being.

They are continually either repressed or rationalized as the main mechanisms the ego has for balancing inner needs with the outer world

Why does this statute raise equal protection issues instead of substantive due process concerns?
Trava [24]

Equal protection calls for state,to guarantee the same rights,priveleges, and protection for all the citizens. Substantive due process on the other hand calls upon court protection of certain fundamental rights from government interference, even if procedural protections are present or the rights are not specifically mentioned elsewhere in the US Constitution. The statute that was raised by the state conferred certain privileges on part of the motorists,requiring some to always wear helmets while others were not.
