Answer:

A) The researcher will not be interacting/intervening with subjects and the data has no identifiers.              

Explanation:

           IRB stands for Institutional Review Board. It is board which protects the rights of the human subjects in a research study made.

          According to the IRB, a human subject is the living being on which a researcher or an investigator is conducting a research study.

          In the context, a researcher wishes to conduct a study from the database collected publicly which have no identifiers and the IRB makes a point that individuals whose records will be reviewed does not meet the official definition given by the federal body regarding human subjects.

         Thus it is confirmed by the fact that the researcher was not interacting with the subjects and the data which have no identifiers, that this research activity  does not constitutes research based on human subjects.

Hence the correct option is (A).

Over [174]

Answer: 3. variable ratio

Options:

1. fixed interval

2. fixed ratio

3. variable ratio

4. variable interval

Explanation: The variable ratio of reinforcement uses rewards to create a high and steady rate of response. The rate of reward for a target behavior is unpredictable so the rat does not know when its response will get a reward. It will keep responding until the reward is delivered.

The options listed above are schedules of reinforcement. They are schedules used in rewarding target behavior in Operant conditioning.

Name 3 interesting fun facts on the southern colonies
miskamm [114]

1. The Northern colonies were a refuge for religious dissenters, many of whom immigrated in families. Fewer families migrated to the Southern colonies because the South attracted people who were seeking economic prosperity.

2. Many people came to the Southern colonies from England because of limited opportunities in the old country. The English countryside was nearly fully occupied by farmers, but the American South had vast expanses of uninhabited, uncultivated land. Immigrants also came from Germany, Scotland and Ireland, and some of these people moved inland, away from the English, especially if they could not obtain fertile land near the coast. These inland Southern colonists faced hardship living in Indian country and wilderness.

3. Colonists in the Southern colonies experienced epidemics of yellow fever and malaria, which shortened life <span>expectancies</span>. These disease outbreaks did not plague the North as much. Life expectancy was even shorter for slaves abducted from Africa or other places. On some of the harsher plantations, slave life expectancy was only seven to nine years.

What did the Selective Service Act accomplish?
Finger [1]

The Selective Service Act of 1917 accomplished the goal of enlisting enough men to serve in the military to be successful during World War I.

Further Explanation:

Once America was exposed to the Zimmerman Telegram and its message, it was inevitable that they would join World War I. In order to be fully prepared for this, the US government had to ensure that they had enough soldiers to fight against the central powers. This is when president Woodrow Wilson enacted the Selective Service Act.

This was a conscription law, meaning it essentially forced men between the ages of 21-35 to register with the US government for military service. Each man was given a number. If there number was picked by the US government, then these men were expected to show up for military training and to serve in the war.

This would not be the last time America used a law like this in order to increase the amount of men in the military. This strategy would also be used during World War II and the Vietnam War.
