The correct answer is B. Fundamental attribution error

Explanation:

According to social psychologists such as Harold Kelley individuals explain or attribute an event or outcome based on two factors: situational or external factors and dispositional factors such as personality. In this context, it is common individuals overestimate the influence of dispositional factors and forget about situational or external factors; this phenomenon is known as the fundamental attribution error.

For example, if someone has a car accident we are more likely to attribute this to the person being a bad driver (dispositional factor) rather than to a problem in the road or traffic signs (situational factors.) Thus, if we attribute behavior to someone's personality rather than to the situation, the fundamental attribution error has occurred.

Answer:     Privacy

Explanation:  Privacy regarding technical issues related to IT applies to data privacy or information privacy, as is the case here. This is an important aspect that everyone who operates private information, such as email addresses, phone numbers, addresses, etc, has to deal with. They must be able to determine which of this information is for shearing and which is not, i.e whether some of the information that someone like Shelli owns, can be shared, transmitted or sold to a third party, that is, bakery. Each legislative act and law prescribes what is the private information that must be respected, that is, the privacy of that information is granted. There is also information for which transparency is guaranteed, such as information collected by various  websites from children, and parents then have control over that information. There are many different cases of protecting the privacy of information.

Which theoretical stage of human development did not exist as a defined life stage until the twentieth century?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

   Jean Piaget developed his cognitive -developmental theory based on the idea that children actively construct knowledge as they explore and manipulate the world around them.

   The four stages of Piaget’s theory of cognitive development correspond with the age of the child; they include the sensorimotor , preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational stages.

   The sensorimotor stage occurs from birth to age 2 and is characterized by the idea that infants ” think ” by manipulating the world around them.

   The preoperational stage occurs from age 2 to age 7 and is characterized by the idea that children use symbols to represent their discoveries.

   The concrete operational stage occurs from age 7 to age 11 and is characterized by the idea that children’s reasoning becomes focused and logical.

   The formal operational stage occurs from age 11 to adulthood and is characterized by the idea that children develop the ability to think in abstract ways.

Key Terms

   deductive reasoning: Inference in which the conclusion cannot be false given that the premises are true.

   object permanence: The understanding (typically developed during early infancy) that an object still exists even when it disappears from sight or other senses.

   Transitivity: The idea that if A is related to B, and B is related to C, then A must be related to C.

   assimilation: The absorption of new ideas into an existing cognitive structure.
