Answer: Non-representative sampling.

Explanation: The researcher interviewing only those diagnosed with Schizophrenia who are in an inpatient facility is a non-representative sampling because, the researcher didn't take into consideration those that are diagnose and not in an inpatient facility. It is not a true representation of the population of people with Schizophrenia.

<u>Question 1</u>

The correct answer is: "The researchers administered a questionnaire to obtain their data without trying to influence an explanatory variable of the study".

An observational study is one in which the researcher observes the effect of a variable without manipulating the conditions that surround the exposure or the subjects who are exposed to it. In this example, he simply hands out questionaires to the 353 individuals that compose the sample drawn from the population of interest: 12-year old teenagers.

<u>Question 2</u>

The correct answer is: "a cohort study".

The researcher is interested on a population group where all the components share a common characteristic (12-year old) and therefore they all belong to the same cohort. Subsequenly, he evaluates the differences between the ones who have been exposed to the explanatory variable (having a video console in the bedroom) and those who have not.

Identify three social problems, such as child labor or tenement housing, discussed in the lesson and research ways in which gove
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Child Labor

Health Hazards

Tenement Housing

Explanation:

Why was there a need for reform for this social problem?

Children should not be doing the work of adults. They are still developing and could endure many injuries doing this work. Their work environments were hazardous and affected them.

How was the problem addressed during the Industrial Age?

It was addressed by the fair labor standards act which was successful in making child labor illegal.  

Was the Social Problem addressed successfully? Be sure to support your opinion with evidence from the lesson or your research.

I believe that the social problem was addressed successfully because it completely stopped the issue. There were no more large-scale cases in which this continued legally in the U.S.

Why was there a need for reform for this social problem?

This was also a very important issue to address. Many people got sick and died due to the unsanitary environment they abided in. If this wasn’t addressed people would continue to get ill and die.

How was the problem addressed during the Industrial Age?

The cities eventually introduced filtration and chlorination systems to be able to improve the water quality and safety.

Was the Social Problem addressed successfully? Be sure to support your opinion with evidence from the lesson or your research.

I believe it was partially successful because the water was cleaner but still not very safe. Entering the 20th century many people did not have completely safe water.

Why was there a need for reform for this social problem?

This needed to be reformed because the people living in the tenement houses lived in very poor conditions. It was an unsanitary dangerous way of living. They did not have basic necessities and had to share the few they did have with many others.

How was the problem addressed during the Industrial Age?

The problem was not really addressed. More buildings were built for tenement housing because the owners noticed they would profit more by renting to more people in smaller spaces.

Was the Social Problem addressed successfully? Be sure to support your opinion with evidence from the lesson or your research.

I believe this social problem was addressed poorly because it wasn’t really addressed at all. As time went on, they were no longer as popular and were no longer in use. But that wasn’t due to any action taken to improve or change the housing.

patriot [66]

Answer:  The correct answer is :  A warm, sensitive parent-child relationship

Explanation:  Preschool self-concepts consist mainly of observable characteristics such as: appearances, possessions and everyday behaviors. For example, at 3 years of age, the concept of self can include common emotions and attitudes. Adults can avoid promoting self-destructive actions, adjusting their expectations to children's abilities, highlighting their effort and improvements in children's work or behavior.
