Answer:

 big fish in a little pond

Explanation:

The options for this question are missing. The options are:

small town-small dreams

big fish in a little pond

coming of age

fresh start

In sociology and psychology, the "big-fish in a little pond effect" refers to the fact that individuals compare themselves to their own peers. Therefore, <u>when high capable individuals are among people who are equally capable and smart they feel less capable than when these same capable individuals are placed with people who are less capable </u>and in this second situation they have a higher self-concept. In other words, it is better to be a big fish in a little pond (you'd compare yourself with other "little fish") than to be a big fish in a big pond where all the rests of your peers are "big fish".

In this example, April moved from an academically focused high school with high-achievers classmates, to a new school who is not really focused as much in academics and she is among the best in her class and feels great about this achievement. We can see that i<u>n her previous schools she was a "big fish in a big pond" and now she is a "big fish in a little pond" and her self concept has increased because of this. </u>Therefore, this illustrates the big fish in a little pond effect.

Andrews [41]

Answer:

B) negatively correlated.

Explanation:

The case is set, would reflect a negative correlation between wealth and marital satisfaction.

This means that not necessarily the wealth would cause marriages to report higher levels of happiness or satisfaction. This would imply that there is an inverse relationship between two variables - when one variable decreases, the other increases. So to the contrary, it would mean the opposite. Having less money would favor marital satisfaction.

It is so believed that money issues are important variables so, they should be reconsidered. In the case as stated having more money turns into less satisfaction of the pair.

A example that is similar to this as a negative correlation, is the birth of children, and mariage, since the condition creates stress that the new creature poses to the relationship  between the pair, that was often better treated.
