Acceptance of selve decreases and acceptance of selves increases in older adults?
Crank

Answer:

Acceptance of <em>ideal and future</em> selves decreases and acceptance of <em>past </em>selves increases in older adults?

Explanation:

In the earlier stages of adulthood people are more focused on their <u>ideal and future selves</u>. They put a lot of effort to create certain life for themselves in the future. For example, have a stable well paying job, a big house and a family. They accept the vision of ideal selves and work towards making it real.

Meanwhile, with the process of aging and entering later stages of adulthood, people realize their life may not have unfolded as they intended. They realize that the larger half of life is already completed and tend to accept their <u>past selves</u>. An individual with a healthy mindset would look back and appreciate the journey he or she went through and even see that it turned out to be better than was planned.

Knowing whether a variable is categorical or quantitative will help us determine an appropriate visual display or testing proced
Leokris [45]

Answer and explanation:

First, let's understand the difference between categorical and quantitative variables. A quantitative variable can also be called a numerical variable. As this name suggests, it involves numbers. It can be measured numerically and be used in calculations - this is important, because not everything that has numbers is used in calculations; take the zip code as an example. On the other hand, a categorical variable cannot be expressed numerically in the same way described above. It is related to a certain quality or characteristic of something. For instance, you can attribute the number one to a person who is sick and the number two to a person who is not sick. The numbers are just a representation of the qualities; they won't be used in calculations. Now, we can safely judge the options given:

The price in dollars of statistics textbooks. --> quantitative

The working status of a computer part (working/not working). --> categorical

The gender of faculty in the mechanical engineering department. --> categorical

The number of miles until failure of a certain brand of tires. --> quantitative

The political party affiliation of students at OSU. --> categorical

The time to complete an exam. --> quantitative

The shirt sizes of a running club. --> categorical
