Answer:

The correct answer is A. Patti, a European-American child.

Explanation:

Self-esteem refers to the value that we give to ourselves, according to our understanding of how others see us and how we compare to them. Self-esteem is highly dependent on our social environment, and one of the biggest influences on self-esteem comes from our sense of belonging to a group. If we feel that we fit right in, our self-esteem tends to be higher than if we feel as outsiders.

According to researcher Gray-Little, African-American children usually have higher self-esteem than children from other ethnic groups, possibly because of having larger families and a much more defined sense of ethnic pride. Similarly so, children who live in places where they feel their socioeconomic status (SES) and their ethnic groups are well-represented are more likely to feel like they fit in and thus have higher self-esteem. In our example, Tamara and Sherman are both African-American children in a predominantly African-American neighborhood, so they should feel like they belong there. Perry comes from a low-SES family, so living in a low-SES neighborhood should give it a sense of belonging as well. This leaves us <u>Patti</u><u>, the European-American girl, who is the most likely to have self-esteem problems</u>, given that in she will be a minority in her neighborhood and thus she's likely to feel like she doesn't fit in because she doesn't belong there.

Answer:

Binocular  

Explanation:

Binocular, is information taken in by two eyes binocular versus monocular. By collecting the information from both the eyes and integrating it. Your brain is constructing a three-dimensional interpretation of the world. But three-d is another perception that is interpreted by depth perception that is called stereo psis. Binocular cues give us the natural ability to determine in space objects that sit relative to our bodies. Our sense of depth perception enables us to discern where to place our feet if the ground is sloping up and down. It determines how far are the objects from us. Depth perception allows us to discriminate between things far and near.
