What were Alaska and Hawaii before they were states?

1 answer:

4 0

ALASKA was a Russian colony from 1744 until the USA bought it in 1867 for $7,200,000. It was made a state in 1959. ALASKA was also a "territory" until May 1959. Statehood requires a minimum population.

Hawaii was a kingdom until 1893 and became a republic in 1894. It then ceded itself to the USA in 1898 and became a state in 1959. IMMEDIATELY before Hawaii achieved statehood in 1959, it was a Territory of the US. However, it had been a sovereign constitutional monarchy until 1893, when the last Queen, Lili'uokalani, was deposed by a group of American sugar planters and missionaries, with the support of the US marines.

Social Desirability Bias is one possible reason for this discrepancy.

What is meant by social desirability?

The propensity for people to display themselves in a generally positive way is known as social desirability.

Why does social desirability bias happen?

When a sensitive subject is being covered in a survey or interview, social desirability bias occurs. Because the subject is too delicate for them, the responders will provide a response that is socially acceptable because they don't want to expose their genuine feelings.

What are the three approaches to minimize social desirability?

The randomized answer methodology, the bogus pipeline, self-administration of the questionnaire, and interviewer selection are only a few of the strategies available to lessen social desirability bias.
