Answer: learned helplessness

Explanation:

Research done by psychologist indicate that when people feel out of control or that they can not control what is happening in their lives they have a tendency of giving up and accepting that it is their fate that these things are happening to them.

What Is Learned Helplessness?

Learned helplessness is a result of a subject being constant exposed to an aversive stimulus in which they are not able to escape. Over time the subject will accept this stimulus and adopt a helpless approach towards it in such that when presented with a chance to escape they will feel helpless to accept those opportunities.

The woman who has been exposed to an abusive relationship feel helpless that she can't not escape her fate in such that she can't even take a chance that may bring her relief.

None of these conclusions is valid.

  • The first one implies that people either think that their employer should cover part of the health insurance costs (as said in the original sentence), or they think that the employer should pay 100%. This is not correct because there are other possible opinions people can have, like thinking that the employer shouldn't pay for anything, for example.
  • The second conclusion is invalid for the same reason: it implies that people can only either think that the employer should pay a large part, or that the employer shouldn't pay anything. It is not considering other options.
  • The third conclusion does not work either because it is referring to what people think about <em>the amount </em>of the costs themselves, whereas the original topic was <em>how</em> they are paid for.
