Answer:

d. cross-sectional study

Explanation:

In research, a cross-sectional study consists of a gathering of data from a population or a subset of the population we want to investigate at an specific point of time. In other words, the data will give us an idea of what's happening within a group in a particular moment in time.

In this example, the researcher gives 20-year-olds, 40-year-olds, and 60-year-olds a questionnaire. He wants to know if older people are calmer than younger ones. We can see that <u>he wants to know what's happening within this groups (the 20 year-olds, the 40's and the 60's) during this particular time of their life </u>and therefore determine if the 60 year-olds are calmer. Therefore this is an example of cross-sectional study.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:sibling rivalry

Explanation:

What is sibling rivalry?

This is an animosity and fighting between sibling that occurs due to the arrival or birth of a new child in a family .

The first child or older child may feel a bit of jelousy for this new born child and this start as soon as the child is born.

The older child may feel like their parents like this child more than they love him or her because of this they may act spiteful towards their sibling .

To them this may feel like the only way to take out these frustrations by being mean to their siblings.

Most of the times they do this because of their level of maturity hasn't real reached that stage where they can understand that the love of their parents can be split equally hence they don't do this because they sincerely hate their siblings; which may be the reason why Ethan regretted at the end.
