Both thoughts because events just cause the thoughts
The Olmecs<span> were the first major civilization in Guatemala and Mexico following a progressive development in Soconusco and modern southwestern pacific lowlands of Guatemala. They lived in the tropical lowlands of south-central Mexico, in the present-day states of Veracruz and Tabasco. </span><span>Olmecs believed they were descendents of jaguars</span>
According to Cloward and Ohlin's theory, there are three subcultures juveniles may enter:
Criminal subcultures
Conflict subcultures
Retreatist subcultures
Criminal subcultures gear towards organized crimes, where they commit criminal acts to climb the social ladder in the criminal world and are rewarded through financial means.
Conflict subcultures on the other hand tend to do less serious crimes, but instead use violence as a way to gain respect.
Retreatist subcultures turn to drugs and alcohol, seeing themselves as rejects.
With that, the answer would be Conflict subcultures or a conflict gang.
Answer:
The best answer choice for the question: Which of the following topics would be appropriate for evaluation research, would be: All of these choices are appropriate topics for evaluation research.
Explanation:
The reason for this being the best answer comes from learning that evaluation research has the purpose of evaluating, improving, and influencing, a program that has been set into motion by a group, an institution, or an organization. Since these programs, specifically of the social order, have goals, and purposes, then evaluation research allows an organization to measure if a plan is possible, how it will impact society, and as it moves along, whether it is meeting the standards, reaching the goals, or if adjustments and changes might be needed. It uses statistical analysis, but also observation, and constant evaluation, for this method of research to work. Evaluation Research is divided into two groups: Formative, and Summative. While Formative seeks to influence the beginning stages of a program with the goal of finding if a program will respond to the needs of a community, or society, Summative comes more at the beginning and end, when the program has already started and is issuing the first visible, measurable results. In the case of the topics in this question, all of them are questions that seek to find out if a specific action, within a program, is actually giving the results expected, and impacting in the way they are expected to. This is why the answer is the last one.
