<span>Robert Merton used the term dysfunctions for the harmful consequences of people's actions.
According to Merton, functions (people's actions_ in society can either be functional (positive) or dysfunctional (negative). Here, we are focusing on dysfunctions- harmful consequences of people's actions. Dysfunctions in turn can either be manifest (obvious and expected) or latent (hidden and unintended). A manifest (expected) dysfunction is rowdy behavior at a football game, whereas, a latent (hidden) dysfunction is the effect of urbanization on an endangered bird species.

The belief that in a truly good relationship, partners never disagree is a <u>Dysfunctional</u> belief.
Negative thought patterns are expressed by people with depression and other related mental health issues as dysfunctional belief systems. American psychiatrist Aaron Beck is credited for creating this.
Three dysfunctional belief systems were listed by Beck: "I am flawed or insufficient," "All of my experiences have ended in failure or loss," and "The future is dismal."
For instance, a person with thoughts frequently feels inadequate and that everything they accomplish is inadequate or disappointing. He consequently sees the future as being equally gloomy.

Answer:
The three primary stakeholders are the banks, the merchants, and the consumers.
Banks = Against, since this would mean that they will be receiving less
Merchants = For, since they would be paying less
Consumers = Generally unaffected. But I believe they would be more against the proposal because if interchange fees are capped, then the banks will find other ways to retrieve the lost revenues by other means, such as increasing the interest or etc.
