The correct answer is C) studying his individual experiences and arriving at a broad generalization. Paul Feldman quit his job as economist and started selling bagels at his former company and other workplaces based in an honor system. He left bagels and doughnuts in boxes and a tray for the money, he would later pick up the leftovers and the money. While he identified factors that increased or decreased the rate of people stealing, he came to the conclusion that most of the people, around 87% are honest and won't steal. Key factors for stealing included big offices, bad weather, holidays and unhappy employees. Key factors for being honest included smaller offices, good weather and a close connection to the person selling the food.
At the end his conclusion was that good people will be good no matter the circumstances and bad people will steal no matter how good the company they work for. Paul F has hope in mankind as his 20 year career selling bagels has demonstrated most people are good.

THE WEAKNESS OF PUBLIC MORALITY
In “Young Goodman Brown,” Hawthorne reveals what he sees as the corruptibility that results from Puritan society’s emphasis on public morality, which often weakens private religious faith. Although Goodman Brown has decided to come into the forest and meet with the devil, he still hides when he sees Goody Cloyse and hears the minister and Deacon Gookin. He seems more concerned with how his faith appears to other people than with the fact that he has decided to meet with the devil. Goodman Brown’s religious convictions are rooted in his belief that those around him are also religious. This kind of faith, which depends so much on other people’s views, is easily weakened. When Goodman Brown discovers that his father, grandfather, Goody Cloyse, the minister, Deacon Gookin, and Faith are all in league with the devil, Goodman Brown quickly decides that he might as well do the same. Hawthorne seems to suggest that the danger of basing a society on moral principles and religious faith lies in the fact that members of the society do not arrive at their own moral decisions. When they copy the beliefs of the people around them, their faith becomes weak and rootless.
Abstract nouns are nouns that the five senses can not detect. Honesty is like honestly. You cannot see honesty, you can not feel honesty, you cannot see honesty, you can not taste honesty, and you can not hear honesty. So, it is an abstract noun.
