Answer: Wendy did not use random assignment

Explanation: Wendy's failure to randomly assign participants or subject to his research will pose a threat to the internal validity of his study. The internal validity of a study simply refers to the structure of an experiment and it's trustworthiness in establishing causal relationship between the applied treatment used a study and the observed outcome. Wendy's decision to ignore random assignment and opt for a manual assignment of subject to each treatment will pose a threat to the structure of his study and hence the establishment of a causal relationship between the treatment t and outcome of the study.

Answer:    Communications gap

Explanation:  The gap in communication is an everyday occurrence in modern society. The speed of life, as well as the large number of commercials, offers, are the reasons for the communication gap. What sociologists and psychologists see as the reason is a lack of empathy, that is, people's unwillingness to understand others in such a busy modern society or to look at the perspective of others. That is why this gap arises, because what one person or party intended to say was not understood by the person who is listening, i.e the recipient. And so in this case, where the advertisement may have stated that the cleaning shop receives laundry for 24 hours and that customers can take over the laundry from 11 am to 7 pm, or there may be some other misunderstanding, there was certainly no complete understanding between what was stated in the commercial and what Thelma understood.

They are the people that you have much less personal interactions except when there are activity gatherings.
