Answer:

In-group bias

Explanation:

The options for this question are missing. The options are

a) Scapegoat theory

b) Social facilitation

c) In-group bias

d) Groupthink

In psychology, in-group bias refers to the phenomenon where we tend to prefer people that we perceive as similar to ourselves as opposed to "outsiders" or people who we consider as different. In other words, <u>we prefer people who we perceive as part of our "same group" and we think they have better qualities than the ones that don't belong to our group. </u>

In this example, most people cheer for athletes from their own country. Fans believe that athletes from other other countries cheat but athletes from their own country would never cheat. We can see that in this case, <u>people are preferring people who they perceive as part of their same group (same country) and think they have better qualities than the other ones ("athletes from our country would never cheat but the others do")</u>

<u />

Therefore, this is an example of c. in-group bias.

New values of self-fulfillment have brought change to American culture, economic decisions, and government policies. Describe ho
Bumek [7]

Values of Millennial and Generation X are very difficult from what was normal 30 years ago.

Today, relationships have become more casual and there are most instances of single-parents and free choices. Religion is gradually playing a lesser role which has meant legalization of gay marriage and opening up of alternative culture and genders.

There is also a surge in environmental awareness and a need to protect the environment and reduce wastage.

The values of the new generation would mean less spending on plastics, non-recyclable products and shunning of fossil fuels. Electric cars will become more popular and people would want to drive smaller cars.

We have already seen shifts in clothing as people rejected animal-derived fur. We might also see more spending on vegetarian and vegan food as that becomes popular.
