Answer:
Lighting significantly affects performance
Explanation:
In this study, Ellen took two groups and applied the same IQ test to both of them. The only variable that changed between the groups was the level of lighting in the room. The first group was placed in a room with very bright lights and the second group was placed in a room with more normal lighting.
Individuals in the first group did better in the IQ test and she found that the difference between the two scores was statistically significant.
We say that a result is <u>"statistically significant" when it is not likely to occur randomly but rather is likely to be attributable to a specific cause.</u>
<u />
So we can say that <u>the better performance in the first group tests were not likely to occur randomly but it can be attributable to a specific cause. </u>
<u></u>
<u>Since the only variable that was different between the groups was the lightning, we can conclude that lighting significantly affects performance. </u>
Answer:
Bargaining
Explanation:
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross developed a theory according to which people go through 5 different stages in the process of dying and grief:
- Denial: First, the person cannot accept the diagnosis from the doctors or can think there is a mistake and that he/she cannot be dying.
- Anger: In this stage, the person gets angry, usually at God, and gets upset and often wonders why is this happening to him/her.
- Bargaining: During this stage, the person says <u>she would do anything in exchange for not dying, he/she will make promises</u> (go to church, be a better person) to survive. These promises are usually made to God.
- Depression: The person accepts that bargaining will not work and will start a process of sadness, starting to recognize the reality of death.
- Acceptance: The person has come to terms with the fact that he/she is going to die and starts saying her goodbyes and reviews the life he/she has lived and makes arrangements referring to her/his death.
In this example, Janice is dying of cancer and she promises God that she will devote her life to church if he lets her live. We can see that s<u>he is bargaining and promising something in exchange for not dying</u>. Therefore, we can see that she is exhibiting the response of bargaining.
The correct answer is letter B.
Explanation: All the others were eliminated because they were not right.
Answer: Unemployment insurance decreases frictional unemployment.
Explanation:
FRICTIONAL UNEMPLOYMENT
This is unemployment caused by people moving from one job to another. It is temporary and is part of the natural rate of unemployment.
Unemployment insurance does not reduce unemployment because to get unemployment insurance you have to be just that, unemployed. An unemployed person getting unemployment insurance is still unemployed.
Perhaps more concerning is that unemployment insurance might actually increase frictional unemployment. With people getting Unemployment Insurance they might take longer finding a job that they 'feel' suits them, in other words they become selective because they have a financial cushion to fall back on.
