Answer:

- Extraneous.

Explanation:

'Extraneous' variable is demonstrated as an undesirable or unwanted variable as they are being studied unintentionally. An experiment primarily comprises of two variables dependent and the independent. The independent variable is manipulated to observe its impact on the dependent variable while the other variables that come in contact during the experiment unintentionally would be regarded as the extraneous variables.

In the given example, the gender would be characterized as 'extraneous variables' because it is not being studied and thus, does not have a direct role to play in the experiment and characterized as undesirable. Here, gender has no much association with the relationship between humor and memory but may cause an effect on the variables that are being studied(humor and memory). Therefore, the <u>'extraneous' </u>variable is the correct answer.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Categorical Imperative; Immanuel Kant

Explanation:

Kant´s moral theory - influenced by the French Enlightenment Rationalism is based on the central idea that the only intrinsically good thing is a good will which is subject to the moral law.

The Categorical Imperative is his construction of moral law, following the principle of universalizability (applied to all people) and that of humanity - never treat other humans as a means to an and. It is therefore not surprising that Feminism used this part of Kantian Perspective on Ethics to condemn certain practices regarding women, because they treat women as means.
