1 answer:

5 0

A homophily is term that is used in Sociology (the study of society and its people). This term refers to people's tendencies to identify and connect with people who are much like themselves. They can be similar in gender, race, socioeconomic status, personality, interests, or in their belief systems.

Example "A" would not best exemplify homophily because the statement does not provide any information that we would identify as commonalities.

Example "B" also is not an example of homophily, for the same reasons stated in Example "A".

Example "C" is a very good example of homophily. These two young people are the same race (race), attend the same church (belief system), and are majoring in the same discipline (interests).

Example "D" is another poor example of homophily. Although the pair met at a funeral (they know common people) and share common interests, their differences are a longer list than their commonalities. They are very far apart in age, have different religions (belief system), and are from different classes (socioeconomic status).

Answer:A) There is no set of guidelines on how to take any potential disciplinary actions with disabled employees

Explanation:

The Absentee rates has no bearing on whether to hire Jay or not. Neither is a demand for higher performance based on the accommodations they will make for him. Employment Discrimination laws prevent organizations from discriminating against applicants based on their race, sex, disability, among other factors. Therefore, they cannot set a higher target for him than those set for workers without disabilities.

While option D would do more to encourage, than prevent Lulumelon from employing Jay, it is not factually correct. During recruitment, accommodations have to made to ensure that the workplace environment is as conducive to a worker with a disability as those without. These accommodations such as physical changes to ensure accessibility, changes to software and technology as well as policy changes can be substantial financially.

A valid reason for not employing Jay is the absence of a disciplinary procedure for people with disabilities in place. The company has to prepare for all possible events and consider what would happen if they had to take disciplinary measures against Jay, which is not available at the moment.

Answer:

Pluralist Democracy

Explanation:

A pluralist democratic government portrays a political framework where there is more than one focal point of intensity. Present day majority rule governments are by definition pluralist as vote based systems permit opportunity of affiliation. In any case, pluralism may exist without majority rule government.

Pluralism is a hypothesis that focuses on how power is conveyed. The pluralist model demonstrates that power is circulated among numerous gatherings. These gatherings may incorporate alliances of similarly invested individuals, associations, proficient affiliations and business lobbyists.

Ancient pluralism is the view that legislative issues and basic leadership are found for the most part in the system of government, yet that numerous non-administrative gatherings utilize their assets to apply impact.
