This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Choose the propaganda style that best fits the statement below. "My opponent, Governor Thomason has raised taxes, increased spending and lied to you, the American people."

plain folks

name calling

card stacking

bandwagon

Answer:

The propaganda style that best fits the statement is:

B. name calling.

Explanation:

We can easily reach the conclusion above via elimination. Let's take a look at each of the options:

A. plain folks: a style of propaganda that attempts to depict a certain person as "one of the people" or "average Joe". It's commonly used by politicians to show us they are ordinary people just like us. This option is INCORRECT.

<u>B. name calling: a style that consists of saying bad things about one's opponent in order to make people see him from a negative perspective. Often involves attributing pejorative nicknames or adjectives to the other. This is precisely what we have here, since the speaker is calling his opponent a liar. This option is CORRECT.</u>

C. card stacking: a style which manipulates information in order to make something or someone look better. This option is INCORRECT.

D. bandwagon: a technique that relies on the idea of "jumping on board" or "everyone else is doing this, and so should you." This is clearly not the case here. This option is INCORRECT.

Studentka2010 [4]
I believe the answer is: 
<span>- The child is engaged in tasks and activities.
(during this phase, most children already develop ability to use logical thinking and possess  a good commang of their body, which allow them to be engaged in various tasks and activities)

- The child can differentiate between industry and inferiority.
 (during this phase, the children would understand the responsibilties that are expected toward them and would develop a sense of failure/inferiority when they fail to fulfill those expectation)</span>

iVinArrow [24]

Gamblers and fisherman sometimes have a difficult time controlling their need to gamble and fish, respectively, because of the <u>Variable-ratio </u>schedule of reinforcement.

Explanation:

A schedule of reinforcement is part of operant conditioning which states about instances when a behavior will be reinforced, whether with each time, or none at all.

Reinforcements (positive or negative) aim to strengthen a behavior. Variable-ration schedule is a part of partial reinforcement which leads response to be reinforced only at part of the time.  

Variable-ratio schedule occurs when a reinforcement results in a steady response rate with reinforcements after an unpredictable number of responses, like after 2, 4, 5, 9 and so on.

When a gambler gambles the first time, he/she may not win; the second time also none; so decides to quit and leave but finally decides to play one last time and wins at that time. This win reinforces him/her to gamble again. The same thing happens with fishermen also when they cannot fish for the first few attempts but finally succeeds which will make them to do fishing again.

How is trade justice different from free trade?
frozen [14]
Trade justice is trade, just with rules and regulations to promote "fairness". So pretty much, your trades are watched. Free trade is without the rules and regulations, meaning you are not being watched. But with trade justice, you are being watched to make sure your trades and the persons trades are fair and equal. 

I really don't have anything else to add.. sorry, but I hope you get the idea..
