I am curious if they included both private and public school students.” Manish also is curious about the study, asking, “I wonder how strong the relationship is between bullying and self-esteem.

the answer should be: The study's construct validity

A study's construct validity refers to the degree to which the experiments made in the study actually measures what it intended to measure. This can be seen on the study's standard of measurement and the correlation between variables used in the measurement and the actual phenomenon.

After hearing the claimed made by the teacher, Clarissa's immediately question whether the act of bullying can be measured.

She brought up an important point. The teacher never really specify what act considered as 'bullying'. Depending on people's perception, some consider a slight discomfort from social interaction might be considered as bullying, while other people might have the threshold.  Because of this, she can say that the study's construct validity is questionable.

Which answer best completes the following sentence? Two advantages of a confederation are that it ______ and ______.
finlep [7]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: Which best completes the following sentence: Two advantages of a confederation are that it.... and ....., would be: A: Prevents abuse of power by a national government; preserves local identity

Explanation:

The idea of a confederation system of government is to control the power of a central figure, by literally difussing that power towards the states, provinces, or regions, that will conform the union. In essence, in this system, the states are the ones that hold all the power, including that of taxation, policy making and revenue collection, and there is very little power given to the central government, thus preventing the abuse of power and the establishment of tyranny. Another advantage that it has, is that it creates a strong sense of identity, and belonging to the states that conform the union, to the point that people identify themselves with their particular state, rather than with the nation at large. This system was adopted by the United States for some time, but problems arose due to the division amongst the people of the union, and thus, they decided to change it to a federated system of government.
