The islands shown on the map were acquired by the United States to function as trading ports and naval bases, and to increase American influence in the Pacific region.

For example, Hawaii was annexed in 1898 by the United States to strengthen the American strategic presence in the Pacific Ocean. The same happened with Guam and the Philippines, obtained after the victory in the war with Spain.

All these islands were acquired with the intention of strengthening the American presence in the Pacific, through the creation of military bases.

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

B) systematic observation

Explanation:

The options for this question are missing. The options are:

A) self-report

B) systematic observation

C) sampling behavior with tasks

D) interview

In research, the term systematic observation refers to a process to get data by which t<u>he researcher makes observations of the subjects of the study in an objective way</u>, not considering the researcher own prejudices by collecting data without biases from the researcher (which would come from the interpretation of the observations).

In this example Irina watches 10 babies once a month from birth to 2 years of age and writes down the sounds they make and the words they use. We can see that <u>she is observing the babies in an objective and close way and by writing down the sounds and words she is actually taking an objective measure of language development</u>. Therefore this would be an example of systematic observation.
