Answer: b. would be ugly if she looked her age

Explanation:

If this remark is meant as a compliment, it implies that she is better looking than other people at her age, or other people her age are uglier than she is. While this may not be meant to offend, it is possible to view it as a form of ageism.

A less controversial way to compliment her would be to say "You are good looking" without referring to her age. This applies to all form of compliments, including physical or mental agility.

Pluralistic ignorance is most closely related to which optimal condition for social proof?
Dima020 [189]

Pluralistic ignorance is most closely related to<u> Uncertainty condition</u> for social proof.

<h3>What is Pluralistic Ignorance?</h3>

Pluralistic ignorance is a significant cognitive fallacy that all individuals, some more than others, experience. It is the mistaken belief that one's thoughts or values are different than the perceived thoughts of the majority.

Pluralistic ignorance is connected to social norms and other aspects of public behavior. It is evidenced by situations in which individuals have one or more beliefs, values, or priorities that they believe differ from those of the rest of the members of the group.

When everyone in the group is uncertain and looking around for clues to appropriate behavior, the result can sometimes lead to "pluralistic ignorance."

Pluralistic ignorance occurs when individuals infer that the identical actions of the self and others reflect different internal stress.

<u>Three steps to pluralistic ignorance:</u>

  1. People self-censor. They do not always express their true thoughts and feelings for fear of embarrassment/rejection
  2. People incorrectly conclude others are expressing their true feelings and thoughts, even though they are censoring
  3. People conclude their own thoughts/feelings are not shared by others

Anna35 [415]

She is describing the two realities that people live nowadays. One is the reality in which we live and experience things with our flesh and bones. This is the one in which we share moments with other people and satisfiy our needs. We go to school, to work, to an event, we eat, sleep. And the other reality is the one we live through media, social networks, the virtual reality. This reality not only let us experience life events in a different way, that means that yo can even be present in another continent or country or neighbourhood, even when you are at home, at the bus or somewhere else. But of course, this reality alter our conception of time and space because it encapsulates us in this frame or moments but it also disconnects from the real life experiences. It makes people feel like they are in another place with other people, living other things but they are also in a real place where you can touch and feel things with your flesh.
