Answer:

The correct answer is - <em>population aging.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Population aging</u> <u>is a process of increase in the average (median) age of the population as a result of lower birth rates and an increase in the life expectancy.</u>  

On the one hand, <em>fewer children are born</em> and thus fewer young people are represented in the population make-up. While on the other hand, as a result of improved healthcare and the quality of life, <em>older people live longer</em> which increases their number in the general population.  

Ultimately, the average age among the population increases. This phenomenon is common for the first world countries, such as Nordic countries.

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Overmier and Seligman have described the phenomenon of learned <u>helplessness</u> as the tendency to feel powerless in the face of events that we can't control.

In 1967, Overmier and Seligman conducted a research, which showed that dogs, once found in an uncontrollable situation such as unavoidable electric shocks, were incapable of escaping a different situation, although there was a possible escape in that situation. The phenomenon of learned helplessness is also commonly experienced by humans who, after repeatedly going through a stressful situation, believe they do not have control over the events. They fail to take any action, even if there is a possible solution.
