The correct answer to this open question is the following.
When asked how they felt 10 years ago regarding marijuana issues, people recalled attitudes closer to their current views than to those they actually reported a decade earlier. This best illustrates memory construction.
This happens when people try to remember situations that happened in the past. They try to construct new memories from past references. When they bring up new memories, people are reconstructing the past. Of course, it is probable that during this action, people modify some things or alter the facts. So what they remember is not 100% true of how things happened.
I believe the answer is: Bench Trial
Bench trial is could only be done if both the plaintiff and the defendant agree to pursue this trial because in general bench trial is far non-time consuming and cost friendly compared to normal method of trial. High level criminal cases could not be handled in the bench trial.
Sociology is the study of ever aspects of society such as how it created, how it developed, how it chose it members, etc.
This discipline tend to goes well beyond conventional wisdom because the way we view each aspect of society tend to be really subjective, depending on our situation, perspective, and position in society.
Answer: the contestants and observers thought the questioners were more knowledgeable than the contestants.
Explanation: Ross et al published a paper in the journal of personality and social psychology in 1977 titled
"Social Roles, Social Control, and Biases in Social-Perception Processes". They demonstrated that our actions and perceptions are determined by roles we have to play in interpersonal encounters; this is the biasing effect social roles have on performance.
In this instance the observers and the contestants perceived the questioners as having superior knowledge as the questioners were given latitude in how they frame the questions. Due to their social roles, the questioners were "the powerful" while the contestants and observers were "the powerless" playing out their roles and not taking into account the biasing effect.
If the roles were switched around, the outcome would still be the same with each group irrespective of their actual ability and knowledge.
