Answer:The technique use in this study is referred to as a double blind
Explanation:
A double blind study is the one that both participants and experimenters or researchers are not made aware who is given a certain treatment.
In double blind researchers will not know if what they are receiving is part of the test itself as they interact with participants or they are receiving a placebo.
This process is useful to eliminate and avoid bias results.
For example, in the above text the effect of caffein on attention is being tested so the researchers will not know whether the drink given to them is actual for the test or just the placebo , they don't know who is in control of the experiment.
<span>Many states restricted British imports, but they did not all impose the same duties, or taxes, on foreign goods. The British took their goods to the states with the lowest taxes. From there they moved those products to the other states. The states tried to prevent the British from exploiting the different trade laws by levying tariffs on British goods that crossed state lines. The Congress could not address the problem because it had no power to regulate commerce. Each state was beginning to act independently, which threatened the unity of the new nation.</span>
Answer: True
Explanation: Jimmy Carter, elected president in 1977 campaigned as an outsider who did not favor the backroom deals that were common in Washington politics. Although this won him an election, maintaining this view as president resulted in a relationship that deteriorated quickly with Congress.
During his presidency, energy prices and taxes increased, and he fired or several cabinet officials. He also gave a speech where he blamed these problems on Americans' lack of confidence and community spirit. A combination of these made him lose his popularity with the American people over time.
Substance abuse affects and costs the individual, the family, and the community in significant, measurable ways including loss of productivity and unemployability; impairment in physical and mental health; reduced quality of life; increased crime; increased violence; abuse and neglect of children; dependence on non-familial support systems for survival; and expenses for treatment. The physical and mental health and social consequences of alcohol and other drug use by women can seriously affect their lives and those of their families (HHS/SAMHSA, 1997a). Not only are women, especially young women, beginning to close the gap between female and male consumption of alcohol and other drugs, they suffer earlier and more serious consequences. Women become intoxicated and addicted more quickly than men and develop related diseases earlier (National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse, 1996).
This seems to be an opinion based question, I will provide you with both a yes and no response with arguments to support it and you can choose which one best suites your beliefs:
Yes, the benefits of raising the minimum wage outweigh the drawbacks. By raising the minimum wage you increase the quality of life for workers. Many full time workers are unable to afford housing or groceries in this economy on the minimum wage. At $7.25/hour and 40hrs/week is $290 before taxes. This is not enough income to cover the basic costs of living in most places. If people earned more money they would have more money to spend and corporations would profit from an increase in sales. Also, workers wouldn't have to depend so much on government services such as food stamps and section 8 housing assistance because they would be able to support their families with their own income. This would free up funds for government to provide more for the school systems, better healthcare and/or infrastructure.
No, the benefits of an increased minimum wage would not outweigh the drawbacks. The drawbacks of a higher minimum wage are significant because they most directly effect small business owners. The "mom and pop shop" owners depend on paying low salaries in order to keep their doors open. If they were forced to increase their pay rates, by what many minimum wage supporters suggest: more than double, they would not be able to afford employees to keep their doors open. Also, government agencies would be forced to pay their low-level workers as much as $15/hr which could become a tax burden on the citizens who pay for the salaries of all government employees. Raising the minimum wage would be detrimental to the economy because small companies and the government could not afford to support the salaries and benefits of their workers.
