Answer:
A. An explained gap in employment
Explanation:
A thorough check of a potential employee's background is very essential before on-boarding the employee in an organization. A background check for employment includes identity verification, credit history, employment verification, criminal records, drug abuse history, education confirmation and many more.
An in-depth examination should be done inquiring for any false reference or false statements, any history of alcohol or drug abuse or for any incomplete information on the application of the potential candidate.
There is no harm in the application of the candidate if there is any explained gap history in the employment of the candidate. It does not require any in depth check on an explained employment gap.
Hence the correct option is (A).

The idea is that by introducing free shipping, the customers tend to place more orders which will in turn reduce the overall cost with which they would have purchased the product on a normal day.
Answer:
C. a controlled experiment
Explanation:
The <u>controlled experiment</u> requires that participating subjects are divided into two groups. One group would be exposed to the influence of the factor <em>(independent variable)</em> that the researcher wants to investigate (here, the extra handling and enriched environment) and the other group would be not. As the result, the effects of the factor under investigation on the <em>dependent variable</em> (here, how quickly rats learned a maze) can be compared to the control group and thus <u>measured</u>.
The cognitive perspective was most influenced by Jean Piaget - d.
This surely is the right answer because all of the others here are either humanistic psychologsts (Maslow, Rogers) or biologists (Darwin). Piaget, however, was a psychologist who developed a theory of cognitive development in children.
