Answer:     The availability heuristic

Explanation:  It is a phenomenon that can occur or be exploited as it is in this case, and is related to decision making. When making decisions, certain thoughts or images may emerge that will encourage a certain decision. As we make an important decision, many similar events or situations can spill over to the surface of our consciousness, and at that moment, encourage us to make exactly the decision we have made. That is why the availability heuristic is in fact a mental shortcut that facilitates decision making, because when making a decision, images and associations appear to us that are most similar to our situation at the time of making the decision.

It can, of course, be used, as in this case, when we want to encourage someone to make the decision that suits us, so at moment of his / her decision we remind them of the very pictures and situations that will, for example, help and encourage someone to buy expensive a homeowners insurance policy if s/he sees hurricane pictures and the like.

lilavasa [31]

The origin of these primary, secondary and fictional sources affect the credibility, perspective and factual information resulting in varying strengths and weaknesses of these sources. These sources include propaganda, photographs, newspapers, journals, books, magazine articles and letters. These compilations allow individuals to better understand the facts, feeling and context of the home front and battlefield of World War One.
Autobiographies, diaries, letters, official records, photographs and poems are examples of primary sources from World War One. The two primary sources…show more content…
Wilfred Owen asks where are the “…passing-bells for these who die as cattle?” The author of “Anthem for Doomed Youth” leads his reader through his personal struggle and frustration of war. Owen has an abrasive approach when describing the death all around him and clearly expresses his anger with the “hasty orisons” for the dead. He speaks directly of battlefront in the first octet and then includes the home front in the second half of his sonnet. Owen’s purpose is not a commemoration of fallen soldiers. Rather, he divulges the disgust and disappointment of war. Like McCrae, Wilfred Owen paints a picture of the multitude of deaths. Back at the home front, “…each slow dusk a drawing-down of blinds.” We can construe that the author is not simply talking about preparing for bed in the evening, but rather lowering the blinds in a room where yet another dead soldier lies, as an indication to the community and out of respect for the soldier. There is a lack of “passing-bells for these who die as cattle….no prayers nor bells; Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs.” Owen writes as though he feels that there is indifference among the death of his fellow soldiers. The poem, “In Flanders Fields,” is impregnated with imagery. “This poem was literally born of fire and blood during the hottest phase of the second battle of Ypres.” John McCrae had just lost his very close

Answer:

Observational method/Field experiment

Explanation:

A field experiment is conducted on a daily bases. In this field experiment, the experimenter still manipulates the independent variables.
