Answer:

The researcher is confounding the sweetness of the cereal and the colour of the cereal.

Explanation:

Based on the results, it would be unclear if the subjects prefer the cereal because of the colour or because of the sweetness --it is only the latter the researcher wants to know about. This would be the dependent variable.

To fix this, the researcher should use the same colour for both sweetened and unsweetened cereal and have each preschooler try both. It is possible to colect data through observation (look at the children's reactions) or simply asking for their opinions at the end of the experiment.

Answer:Risky Shift Phenomenon

Explanation:

There are decisions that seem easier to take when we are not taking them alone, we may even take a risk in groups that we wouldn't take if we were doing it individually. This occurs because we know that the risk is shared amongst everyone in a group , which decreases individual risk. This is what is called a risky shift.

This means even the most cautious person may loosen up a bit and be willing to take a risk if they are in company of others. Sometimes the Risky Shift may also occur because you don't want to let your friend down or dissapoint them when they suggest something risky.

Sometimes high risk takers may be very influential such that you may find yourself willing to take a risk with them.

Explanation: In his article presented at the 2nd annual conference of Mexican Americans in Sacramento held on March 8-10 1968, he said "We don’t ask for more

cathedrals.We don’t ask for bigger churches or finegifts. We ask for its presence with us, beside us, as Christ among us. We ask the Church to sacrifice with the people for social change, for justice, and for love of brother. We don’t ask for words. We ask for deeds. We

don’t ask for paternalism, We ask for servanthood"
