This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Mavis believes that the girls from the nice neighborhood on the north side of town are all stuck-up and white. She has noticed a correlation between this group of girls and how they act above other people at the mall. Mavis's example of stereotypes and prejudice support the ________ theory.

a. ​motivational

b. ​learning

c. ​cognitive

d. ​dispositional

Answer:

Mavis's example of stereotypes and prejudice support the c. cognitive theory.

Explanation:

In cognitive theory, <u>behaviors are explained by understanding the mental processes behind them. </u>In other words, the focus is not on the behavior per se, but on the thought processes that led to its existence. <u>The example we are studying here seems to characterize an explanation from a cognitive perspective. Notice that Mavis's behavior is being explained through a tracking of her thought process - she has a certain stereotype for a certain reason. She is not being prejudice out of the blue, there is mental path that was taken. Mavis associated that group of girls and how they act above other people at the mall.</u>

identify a challenge faced by Louisiana as it became a state and explain why the challenge had to be overcome in order for Louis
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Louisiana had a difficult road to statehood because of disagreements over the western boundaries of the state with colonial Mexico and cultural differences with the United States.

Explanation:

President James Madison signed Louisiana into statehood with a bill dated April 30, 1812. This made Louisiana 18th state. However, in the interim between the Lousiana Purchase in 1803 and statehood in 1812, some difficulties arose like the western border dispute between Spain and the United States which even led them to hault diplomatic relations in 1805.  It was believed that military action would be necessary to resolve the conflict.  Disagreements over the contested area were not fully resolved until 1819 when both parties agreed to the Sabine River as the western boundary. There were also cultural differences in that many residents of Louisana identified with its French past and they had a different system of local governance with the parish system.

mihalych1998 [28]
That statement is true.
Internalized subordination is a situation when an oppressed group subconsciously accepted their status as 'an inferior group'.
An oppressed group tend to enter this state if the efforts that they made to relieve the oppression keep failing without showing any development for a long period of time.
