It has been suggested that occupational exposure to benzene in the petroleum industry increases the risk of developing leukemia.

The levels of benzene to which workers in this industry have been exposed were high from 1940 to 1970, but since 1970 have been significantly reduced. What kind of study design, using petroleum workers, would provide the most useful information on whether benzene affects incidence rates of leukemia in this industry? You may assume that records of individual worker assignments to jobs involving benzene exposure have been maintained by the industry.

Answer:

Retrospective cohort study

Explanation:

A cohort study is the study where people are grouped according to the factors they have been exposed to. The cohort is the group.

A retrospective cohort study is the study where the cohort who has been exposed to certain factors is compared with another cohort who has not been exposed to the factors that the first cohort has been exposed. This study is a long term study.

Here, the people's health of those that have been exposed to benzene will be compared to the the people who have been working there after 1970.

Hence, here a retrospective cohort study will be done.

mrs_skeptik [129]

The correct answer is B. Difficult

Explanation:

The temperament includes the particularities in behavior, reactions and emotional responses that are linked to the personality of an individual. Temperament is classified into three main categories: easy, difficult or slow-to -warm.

-Easy temperament is characterized by adaptability to new situations, positive mood/reactions, and regular body functions.

- Difficult temperament is characterized by irregular body functions, negative reactions and mood, and slow adaptability.

-Slow-to-warm temperament is characterized by few reactions, negative mood and different degrees of adaptability.

In the case of Nathan, his temperament can be classified as difficult temperament because he shows irregular body functions (sleep and feeding schedules are irregular), negative mood and reactions (he responds with tantrums and loud cry) and he seems to have difficulties in adapting to changes.

Barbara just received a B on her test. She learns that one of her friends got an A on the same test, and another friend got a C.
9966 [12]

Answer:

According to social comparison theory, Barbara appears to have engaged in downward comparison.

Explanation:

According to Leon Festinger's Theory of Social Comparison, we commonly compare ourselves to people who are similar to us. We do that with the purpose of making accurate self-evaluations. However, a type of comparison known as downward comparison happens when we do not look at those who are similar to us. Instead, we compare ourselves to people who are in an inferior, more unfortunate position. That is a way we find to feel better about ourselves. This is what Barbara has done. She only knows the grades of two other classmates - one did better, one did worse than she did. Yet, she has chosen to think she has done really well relative to others in the class. Barbara has clearly chosen to ignore the one got an A, comparing herself to the one who got a C.
