Answer:

Backfire effects

Explanation:

The "backfire effect" phrase was first coined by Brendan Nyhan and Jason Reifler in 2010. This phrase explains one's rejection of evidence that contradicts his belief which leads the person to believe even more strongly.

This is seen in the example above where Sharon strongly believes vaccines are poisonous even though Frank had presented evidence to show it is safe.

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

In the explanation section below, the summary of the given context is summarized.

Explanation:

Throughout the perspective of its fundamental principles, preconceptions or expectations about people as well as underlying conceptual context, the psychoanalyze theories, approaches as well as situational approach may be regarded to have been very diverse.

  • Throughout the psychoanalyze theory, Freud's incredible achievement has been placed together in a tight social contemporary framework, which includes a severely prejudiced and almost physically oppressed community.
  • The humanistic idea that still nowadays remains regarded as one of the most uplifting and development-assuring ideas that already have emerged from psychology seems to have been a lacking element of advancement.

The federal government must often balance protecting individual liberties and providing for order and security. At times, priori
nalin [4]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I am going to take into consideration the 1st. Amendment to the United States Constitution.

It is true that the federal government must often balance protecting individual liberties and providing for order and security. We have seen how, at times, priority is given to one over the other, depending on the circumstances.

However, according to my thinking and belief systems, the federal government should always place more emphasis on protecting individual liberties. Just when the exceptional case is necessary, then the federal government must provide for order and security.

As stated in the 1st. Amendment, citizens must always have their freedom of speech and freely express what they believe is right; this includes reasonable critics of the economic and political systems, as well as to highlight positive attributes too.

Respecting the differences has always been a trademark for true democracies.

It is understandable that in times of conflict, as was the case of WWI and WWII, the government has put restrictions on certain liberties.

Some would say that the September 11 attacks justify the creation of the type of surveillance the government placed on the citizens, but that is when a fine line was crossed between protection and "espionage" without the consent of the citizens.
