Question

Participants in an experiment learn about eight positive and four negative behaviors performed by members of group A. They also learn about four positive and two negative behaviors performed by members of group B. Which pattern of results is most likely

Answer 1

Answer:

Group B will be liked less

Explanation:

Based on this information it can be said that most likely Group B will be liked less because of a perceived link between the distinctive events of membership in the smaller group and performing fewer negative behaviors. In other words, since Group B contains fewer members their rate of negative behaviors should be less than Group A's which contains double its members.
