Answer:

Priming is the best explanation for the phenomenon.

Explanation:

We can define priming as the implicit memory effect in which exposure to a stimulus influences response to a subsequent or another stimulus.

It can also be define as method whereby when one stimulus is exposed, it influences or affects the response to subsequent or another stimulus, without intention or conscious guidance. The person who watch the movies was assuming the argument that he was witnessing might probably lead to a fight.

Answer:

The best explanation for this phenomenon is  <u>PRIMING</u>

Explanation:

Primingcould be defined  as a technique in which the introduction of one stimulus influences how people respond to a subsequent stimulus. Priming works by activating an association or representation in memory just before another stimulus or task is introduced.

Priming is the process by which perception or experience of an item (or person or event) leads to an increase in its accessibility and the accessibility of related material and behaviors. therefore priming is what happens when exposure to some thing influences the behavior of an individual later on, without that individual being aware that the first thing is guiding their behavior to a certain extent.

The person was exposed to a scary movie which latter affected his behaviour when he witnessed an argument which he probably think will end in a fight.

The unemployment rate measures:
noname [10]

Answer:

unemployed workers as a percentage of the labor force  

Explanation:

The level of unemployment refers to  the proportion of the unemployed population, measured as a statistic. This is a stagnating predictor, which means this normally grows or drops in the face of shifting economic circumstances instead of predicting them.

The rate of joblessness should be projected to rise whenever the country is in bad condition and opportunities are limited. If the economy expands at a steady pace, and workers are fairly stable, it could be predicted to decline.

Thepotemich [5.8K]
<span>This is true. This model gives managers the ability to understand the types of people they will be leading, and bases it on the ability for a person to critically think about directives and how well the person engages with others. A brown-noser, in this instance, is a person who will not think critically about a directive, deciding to follow anything the leader gives to them, as well as engaging with this leader often, trying to get in their good graces.</span>
