Answer:

Observational study.

The variable which is of interest is the result of either correct or incorrect for each trial.

Explanation:

In Observatory study, researchers observe or measure characteristics of the subjects, but do not attempt to influence or modify these characteristics.

lilavasa [31]

Answer: C. requires all Americans to purchase health insurance.

The Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as <em>Obamacare</em>, is a federal statute signed into law by President Barack Obama on 2010.

The individual mandate contained in the Act requires all individuals to buy insurance or pay a penalty if not covered by an employer sponsored health plan, Medicaid, Medicare or other insurance programs. The mandate was designed to avoid healthy people delaying insurance until they were sick. This in turn causes premiums to rise, motivating even more people to drop their coverage.

The individual mandate was repealed starting in 2019 via the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

Answer:Cognitive Dissonance

Explanation:

Cognitive Dissonance is a theory that explains how we tend to want to keep and maintain constant beliefs and opinions.

If we see any interruption in the consistency of our beliefs or attitudes (dissonance) then we look for something that can get rid of that dissonance. For example if our behavior no longer correlate with our attitude then one of these must change probably we will change the attitude to fit with the new behavior.

Dissonance can be removed through minimizing the value of dissonant beliefs , adopt more consonant beliefs,change the dissonant beliefs to restore consistency.

Dissonance hit us mostly when we have to decide between two beliefs that doesn't go well together , that are totally different and when both are appealing.

Which of the following is an agent of socialization?
Alborosie

Answer:

Answers are:

1. D. All of the above are agents of socialization.

2. B. An emergency room is not a total institution.

Explanation:

1. According to symbolic interactionism we encounter numeorous agents of socialization in our lives, the first one, is the family. For a child, the family is where socialization begins. School is the second agent of socialization, where the child begins to interact with other people outside the family, with peers and learn a different set of rules. Mass media, including TV, is also an important agent of socialization, where the child learns about other people and other realities, mass media holds a strong influence in a person's preferences and opinions.

2. According to Erving Goffman, a total institution is an institution that is closed and separated from the outside world, people who live in total institutions do all of their daily activities in there and they are rarely allowed to interact with the outside world. Goffman did observation in prisons and in psychiatric hospitals, but a military camp also fits with the characteristics that Goffman asigned for these institutions.
