Answer: a. testing effect

Explanation:

Testing effect is a type of threat to internal validity of an experiment. Internal validity is assessing whether a factor makes a difference in an experiment or not and if it does, whether there is adequate evidence to support this correlation.

Testing as a threat to internal validity is when a second test is taken on the outcome of a first test. Other internal validity threats are history, maturation, instrument modifications.

Why did tenant farmers need to be better at managing money than sharecroppers? a. They oversaw sharecroppers who worked for the
Sonbull [250]

The correct answer is D) They controlled more of their own planning and finances.

Tenant farmers needed to be better at managing money than sharecroppers because they controlled more of their own planning and finances.

After the abolition of slavery at the end of the Civil War and during the time of Reconstruction, Southern landowners rented portions of the farm field to former slaves in order to work and produce cash crops. The new system was called "sharecropping."Farmers in exchange had to give the landlord a big portion of the crops. That is why tenants had to be very careful and better at managing money than sharecroppers because they controlled more of their own planning and finances. It was a matter of establishing good control and operative procedures.
