Answer:

The Principle of closure.

Explanation:

In psychology, Gestalt therapy is a particular type of therapy that has some principles which it works with during therapy.

One of these principles is the principle of closure.

The principle of closure refers to the tendency that the brains has in which it tends to perceive forms and figures in their complete appearance despite the absence of one or more of their parts, either hidden or totally absent. So our brains tend to "complete" the picture when there are missing parts of it.

In the example, a magician has two people concealed in a long wooden box. <u>One person's head and arms stick out </u>of the front and <u>the other's legs stick out </u>of the back. Then the magician saws down the center and <u>it appears that the magician is sawing someone in half. </u>

In this scenario, <u>our brain "completed" the picture, by seeing the head, arms and legs sticking out of the box, it completed the picture and assumed there was just ONE person</u> in the box. Thus, it perceived one person in their complete appearance despite the absence of the rest of the parts.

Thus, this is an example of Principle of Closure

The unalienable rights of United States citizens are protected by the
DedPeter [7]

Human rights in the United States comprise a series of rights which are legally protected by the Constitution of the United States, including the amendments,[2][3] state constitutions, conferred by treaty, and enacted legislatively through Congress, state legislatures, and state referenda and citizen's initiatives. Federal courts in the United States have jurisdiction over international human rights laws as a federal question, arising under international law, which is part of the law of the United States.[4]

The human rights record of the United States of America is a complicated matter; first and foremost the Federal Government of the United States has, through a ratified constitution and amendments thereof, guaranteed unalienable rights to citizens of the country, and also to some degree, non-citizens. However, the historical evolution of these rights must be considered as well, as the periphery of the population of the United States who had access to these rights has expanded over time, and in accordance with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights has not fully expanded complete rights to all human beings within its borders as compared to the international standard set by the United Nations General Assembly, because of social and political issues that stem from the history of the United States.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: INSECURITY.

Explanation: Psychological noise is a form of communication noise that occurs in the mind of an individual. It occurs as a result of premeditated ideas that may or may not be true that we bring into conversation with others.

Psychological noise causes an individual to be oblivious to the original message that is being passed in the conversation due to stereotype, biases, assumptions etc.

Insecurity is an example of psychological noise because based on information we might have seen on the press and Social Media which may or may not be true, we might feel insecure about so many things.

The burden of health disparities continues to affect disproportionately which population(s)?
wel

The correct answer to this is the:

“minority populations”

For example in America, white Americans are the racial majority while African Americans and Latinos are the minority. Despite improvement in overall health for the majority of the people, the burden of health disparities always affect the minority populations. The slight difference in race gives a very large advantage to white Americans in terms of health benefits, insurance and health facilities available.
