Answer:

A. self-handicapping

Explanation:

In psychology, the term self-handicap refers to an strategy that people use in order to enhance the opportunity to attribute failure to external situations and not take responsibility for it. This strategy is used in order to protect our self-esteem (since we can attribute failure to external factors and not to our own abilities).

In this example, before an exam Marc tells you that he's tired because he partied the night before. We can see that, <u>by saying this, if he gets a bad grade, he can attribute it to the fact that he was tired because of the party </u>(which would be an external situation and therefore he won't attribute it to his lack of knowledge which would be an internal factor). Therefore, Marc is engaging in self-handicapping.

Legal realism is a theory according to which public policy and prevailing social interests are the sources of all law. In accordance with this view, judges decide cases by taking into account social concerns and public policy in addition to abstract norms.

Legal realism is a kind of jurisprudence that places more emphasis on the law's application in daily life than it does in books. To this purpose, it focused primarily on the acts of judges and the variables that affected judicial decision-making processes.

yan [13]

Answer:

  • Long working hours.
  • Small pay

Explanation:

From the source shown above, the young girls had to work really long hours from 5 am to around 7 pm. Even though they were granted breakfast and lunch hours, this is still a long time to work. Long work hours have been shown to drain a person and lead to fatigue, lack of attentiveness and lower productivity.

The young girls also received little pay for the amount of hours of work they put in. The doffers for instance, were paid $2 a week for being on duty for nearly fourteen hours a day. Assuming this is a 6 day work week, that would translate to less than 3 cents per hour.

These working conditions took such a toll on the young ladies that they were able to argue the case for a reduction in work hours by their presence.

9966 [12]

Answer:

A market for cats would have had a positive externality.

Because the cats would kill the rats on sight since that is their natural behavior.

However, it is interesting to mention, that the cat's killing has been more of a "mythic" aspect of this story, since it fails to take into account that since the black death was caused by the<em> yersinia pestis</em> bacteria, cats could have been also infected, and since their interactions with humans are greater than rats or fleas, the real outcome could have been totally unexpected.
