Answer:

The Declaration of Independence of the United States was being established. This led to changes in European economies that saw colonialism weakening. It also raised new economic paradigms with the emergence of the economic administration of the colonies, without the interference of the metropolis.

Explanation:

"The wealth of Nations" is one of Adam Smith's most important works. This work consists of five books and makes a complete analysis of the functioning of commerce and the societies created from them. It also exposes innovative themes for the time, such as the division of the tebalhos, distribution of income, accumulation of capital, among others.

This work was published at the same time as the United States Declaration of Independence. At that time the world was experiencing a great change that was the fall of European colonialism. which encouraged the colonies to seek their own economic and social identity and generated innovative concepts in the national economy.

Nataly [62]

Answer:

<em>A.</em> The hardware store on Main Street must have had a bigger advertisement in the Sunday paper than the hardware store around the corner had. The hardware store on Main Street sold twice as many items as the hardware store around the corner did last week, and a Sunday paper advertisement has been shown to increase the number of items sold.

Explanation:

The statement in the example has the following logical structure. <u>It finds explanation to a present state</u> (Jacob is obese, while I am not) <u>that came as a result of actions in the past</u> (as a child Jacob watched more television than I did) <u>on the basis of a study</u> (correlation between watching TV and obesity in children).

<em>In the same manner</em>, statement A finds explanation to a present state (hardware store on Main Street sold twice as many items as the hardware store around the corner did last week) that came as a result of the action in the past (the hardware store on Main Street must have had a bigger advertisement in the Sunday paper than the hardware store around the corner had) on the basis of a study (Sunday paper advertisement has been shown to increase the number of items sold).

sergey [27]

The answer is: phenomenological

According to phenomenological approach, people tend to perceive the situation around us based on our subjective experiences.

From the case above, Jeremy's couldn't see the hostility that experienced by Selena because Jeremy did not directly experience the hostility himself. Selena on the other hand, has to experience it.

It's commonly believed that most political elections are determined by the public's impressions of the candidates rather than th
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Reasons for irrational behaviour : Political brand name establishment in favour of candidate, enhancing brand loyalty towards.

More knowledgable public : Would value candidate working on  real development, rather than mere brand name.

Explanation:

Political elections are determined by the public's impressions of the candidates rather than the candidates' views on the issues.

Reason(s) of such irrational voting behaviour could be : The candidate having established a personal brand image of himself/ herself, specially in a particular community group. This makes the people of the community being 'brand loyal' towards their candidate, irrespective of his or her ideologies. It is also possible to make that political personality (candidate) an important part of 'national image' or 'community leader image', which reinforce support for the candidate, irrespective of person perception and attitudes.

If public were more knowledgeable about factors that affect person perception and attitudes : The political support would not be based on lineaged political brand names. It would rather be earned on the basis of candidate's performance for socio - economic, political upliftment. This would give power in the hands of deserving politicians & create a message that 'real work' & not just 'name' is needed to gain political success

In honor of Rosa Parks contribution to the civil rights movement, the seat behind the driver on buses in major cities was reserv
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Making the assumption that these people were prejudiced or racist is an example of the correspondence bias.

Explanation: On December 1st, 1955, Rosa Parks was commuting back home by bus, when the driver asked her and three other African Americans to stand up from their seats so that white passengers could seat there. While the three other passengers complied with the driver's order, Rosa Parks denied to do so, which ended up with her arrest, and later on with a social movement that decided to boycott the buses in Montgomery during Rosa Parks' trial. Although most of the people decided to leave the first seat behind the driver empty in honor of Rosa Parks, some of them actually seat on it anyways. Assuming that these people were racists is an example of a correspondence bias. A correspondence bias is the tendency to draw inferences about a person's personality based on a unique and specific observed behavior.There are many circumstances and reasons as to why that people sat on the seat that was meant to be empty that would not make them instantly perceived as racist or prejudiced, but assuming that they are based on that one action would be an example of a correspondence bias.
