The correct answer is agenda control.

Agenda control refers to phenomenon whereby the media (television, newspapers, movies, magazines, etc.) shapes and influences people's thoughts and perceptions of the world. This occurs as a result of over reporting topics such as crime, terrorism, corruption, etc., while under reporting other prevalent occurrences in society. By selectively providing information to consumers, the media influences the public's opinions and perceptions.

Which of the following is a statement of positive economics?
Ugo [173]

Answer:

a. If the overall unemployment rate is 6 percent, teenage unemployment rates will exceed 12 percent.

Positive economics refers to the description of facts and information related to the economic situation of a country or region. It simply means explaining the facts and reality that is proven by theoretical work as well. It highlights the cause and effect relationships between different economic phenomenon. Here, the statement that if the overall unemployment rate is 6 percent, teenage unemployment rates will exceed 12 percent fulfills this criteria as it presents a simple and well-known fact that teenage unemployment rates are usually higher than the overall unemployment rate and can be double. This is because of a lack of skill set and experience at the youth level as compared to older age groups.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

The best definition of unicameral is a government with one legislative body, hence the word "uni". The United States had a unicameral type of legislature but was later changed because all the states had the same number of representations, even though a state has a low or high amount of population. The United States changed from a unicameral to a bicameral legislature, which is composed of the Senate and the House of Representatives.
