Answer:

The correct answer is - <em>b) attitude.</em>

Explanation:

Being a form of a psychological construct, attitude is a blend of emotional and intellectual characteristics that result in a certain state of mind of an individual towards an attitude object (such as, other people, places, events etc).

<u>Attitude is formed by previous experiences and leads towards certain thoughts, ideas and ultimately actions towards these objects.</u>

For example, because an individual’s parent disapproved of Oscar Academy Awards and argued that it is a waste of money (experience), this individual now states a similar opinion (thought) when his friends discuss Oscar nominees and switches to a different channel (action) when news about Oscar is on TV.

Answer:

It's egoist because it's imposed by an Almighty Power (God in this case), and even if you have the free will, one way or another, it's a condition to be good.

It's consequentialist because every choice you make, based on God's commandments, you will have a consequence, for the good or for the bad.

And finally, it's deontological because you are morally conditioned to choose, you don't have the option to put aside, it's a social convention to choose.

Even with the free will, the social and moral conditions demands a choice, that's why it's an egoist, consequentialist and deontological theory.

Flura [38]

I believe there is something wrong with the experiments.

First of all, there is no control group  which make the researcher able to distinguish which variables are the one that would change the nature of independent variable. The second reason is because there is biased or non representative sample in the study ( only from colleagues in the same field)
