Social Studies

coldgirl [10]3 years ago

Answer: The intentional infliction of emotional distress has four elements

(1) The defendant must act intentionally or recklessly.

(2) The defendant's conduct must be extreme and outrageous:

(3) The defendants act is the cause of the distress

(4) Plaintiff suffers severe emotional distress as a result of defendant's conduct.

Explanation:

Intentional or reckless act: It is not necessary that an act be intentionally offensive. A reckless disregard for the likelihood of causing emotional distress is sufficient.

Extreme and outrageous conduct:

The conduct must be horrible and beyond the standards of civilized decency or utterly intolerable in a civilized society. Whether the conduct is illegal does not determine whether it meets this standard.

Cause of the distress: The actions of the defendant must have actually caused the plaintiff's emotional distress beyond the bounds of decency.

Plaintiff suffers severe emotional distress as a result of defendant's conduct: This standard is quantified by the intensity, duration, and any physical manifestations of the distress.

When a fight broke out between two workers at Leo Motors, James, a coworker, decided to walk away and let the situation resolve
adell [148]

Answer:

The dimension of personality that describes James is Agreeableness

Explanation:

The big five theory classifies and defines the personality of people in five dimensions, these are:

  • Openness to experience
  • Conscientiousness
  • Extroversion
  • Agreeableness
  • Neuroticism

Each of the categories is characterized by different behaviors, and these categories can be identified at the positive or negative pole. For example, The Agreeableness dimension identifies cooperative, compassionate and kind people, they are people who do not have a hard time establishing interpersonal relationships but at the negative pole avoid discussions or any hostile situation.

For example, in the James case, it can be observed that he moves away from the situation of fighting between his partners, this behavior could identify James in the dimension of the personality Agreeableness, this makes James a submissive person and prefers to move away from hostile situations.
