<u>Answer</u>:
The Pendleton Civil Service Act intended to reform the federal hiring practices.
<u>Explanation</u>:
This act was to ensure federal employment based on merit rather than hiring based on affiliations with political parties. Following the widespread corruption and incompetence post Civil war, the public demanded civil service to be reformed.
All the citizens were to be given equal opportunity for employment for federal services regardless of their national origin, race, ethnicity, etc. This provided protection to the federal employees. It was also according to this act illegal to demote government officials for political reasons. A commission was formed to ensure the merit system.
Answer:
Social force
Explanation:
Social factors are an important influence on consumer behavior. Social forces refer to groups of people impacting in other groups behavior and desiring to buy some particular kind of items.
In this particular example, the book Fifty Shades of Grey had a huge success especially among women, so this gender group had an influence among other women and the ones who hadn't read the book did it and then it would be a frenzy for female-targeted romances packaged for the mainstream reader.
This would be an example of how a group (social force) impacts the marketing environment.
During the period before the Civil War, South Carolina was not only the wealthiest state but also the one that was alienated from the rest. On July 6th, 1774, at a general meeting, members of the South Carolina's society decided to create "The committee of 99", that was formed by 5 delegates and who main task was to take control of the government of the colony.
The committee of 99 was created as a response of the colonists against the lack of representation that the colony had in America. They wanted to formally declare the shift that the colonists were making from the British Government and to start governing themselves.
Answer:
The ability to pay attention to one message and ignore others, yet hear distinctive features of the unattended messages.
Explanation:
In psychology, the term cocktail party effect refers to the phenomenon by which <u>the brain can focus its attention on a particular stimulus while filtering out the other stimuli that are not relevant to it.</u> This phenomenon happens especially at places where there's a lot of noise where the listener is able to focus his/her attention in one particular stimulus. However,<u> if there is a distinctive stimulus (like someone saying your name) you can hear this part of the message</u> even if your attention is focused somewhere else.
Therefore, we can conclude that the cocktail party effect is the ability to pay attention to one message and ignore others, yet hear distinctive features of the unattended messages.
Dr. Croteau explains to students in his methodology class that when they are using a mixed design, they are essentially using a(n) factorial design with multiple independent variables.
Methodology is studying the methods used in field and the theories or principles behind them, so that you can develop a approach which matches your requirements.
Mixed design is an approach in which the researcher have to examines both the potential differences between two or more separate groups of participants and also the individual changes over time.
Factorial design is necessary when interactions are there to avoid misleading conclusions. They allow the effects of a factor to be estimated at several levels of a factor, that can yield a conclusion that are valid over a range of experimental conditions.
