The correct answer is linguistic determinism.
Linguistic determinism is the idea that we as people are determined by the language we speak, meaning that our thoughts, perception, and memory are influenced by that particular language. In this case, when it comes to the speakers of the Brazilian Piraha language, they cannot state the exact number of nuts given that that word does not exist in their language (everything above 2 is considered to be <em>many</em>).

Vlad [161]

Answer:

Dave's attire strategy likely indicates he is a high self-monitor.

Explanation:

High self-monitors are people who respond to social clues by adjusting themselves to those clues. That is, they present themselves differently in accordance to each individual situation. That includes not only their appearance, but also their behavior. It is common for high self-monitors to hold jobs that involve dealing with an audience or a large group of people - acting, diplomacy, and public relations, among others. Dave shows concern by how his appearance fits in with the situation. He is capable of adapting, adjusting, in a way that shows he is likely a high self-monitor.

Explain how your gender affects our economy?​
Julli [10]

Answer:

It depends on where you live, really.

Explanation:

Gender has less on an affect on western economy than in other non-westernized countries. For example, women can hold jobs of power in the United Kingdom but not in Afghanistan. This obviously has an impact on earnings made by women in different areas of the world. Women in second and third world countries don't have the opportunities that women in first world countries do, therefore they earn less and have far less of an impact in economics worldwide. Women are also expected to take off work if they choose to start a family, while men are expected to continue working, creating not only a economic imbalance but also a power imbalance.

Women's rights have historically been restricted by the Supreme Court's use of which of the following?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Women's rights have historically been restricted by the Supreme Court using the reasonableness standard.

Explanation:

The reasonableness standard is used in US courts to understand whether a plaintiff or defendant acted reasonably in a harassment situation, for example, and it has been used in cases against police where the plaintiff claims excessive violence was used. There is also the "reasonable woman standard" that has been used in US Supreme Court Cases like Harris vs. Forklift Systems 510 US 17 (1993).  The Supreme Court sided in favor of Harris who had to appeal two lower court decisions that found that Harris was not sufficiently psychologically impacted for the case to constitute harassment.  The reasonableness standard can be seen as limiting because it imposes the standards of what men find reasonable in a sexual situation and coworker relationship at the expense of what women may find uncomfortable or inappropriate.
