Answer: the crime rate isn't as high as it seems to be. The crime rate is high in the cities, but low in the rural and suburban areas.

Most cities are extremely liberal, making it practically impossible for good citizens to own a gun for self defense. For this reason, urban criminals know that their intended victims are helpless, and they can commit violent crimes with impunity. (Suburban and rural criminals are strongly deterred from their potential crimes by the presence of armed citizens.)

Explanation: Cities are also home to vast numbers of government dependents, broken homes, and fatherless children. Fatherless children with unstable home environments have a much higher likelihood of turning to crime, joining gangs, etc. American cities skew the statistics for the country as a whole — but if you take the cities OUT of the statistics, then America is one of the safest places in the world.

g100num [7]

Answer:

Social force

Explanation:

Social factors are an important influence on consumer behavior. Social forces refer to groups of people impacting in other groups behavior and desiring to buy some particular kind of items.

In this particular example, the book Fifty Shades of Grey had a huge success especially among women, so this gender group had an influence among other women and the ones who hadn't read the book did it and then it would be a frenzy for female-targeted romances packaged for the mainstream reader.

This would be an example of how a group (social force) impacts the marketing environment.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

People tend to make systematic and predictable mistakes in their thinking. These mistakes are called biases.

Explanation:

Humans are not perfect decision makers. Everyday humans make numerous decisions and try their best to be rational. But many times, our cognitive limitations prevent us from doing so. In systematic and predictable ways, we do drift away from perfection. Even if we take each step properly to make a decision by first defining the problem, then thinking of alternatives for the solution and then take a decision, one is bound to get affected by cognitive thinking. Such mistakes that humans make are called biases. They affect the judgement of even a very talented human being.
