Answer: I would contend that the right answer is the C) whether or not student-athletes are students who participate in sports, or athletes who may also go to class.  

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that Christopher Saffici and Robert Pellegrino wrote their article in 2012 with the title "Intercollegiate athletics vs. academics: the student-athlete or the athlete-student." Their main argument is that the students who are accepted in colleges due to their athletic skills often are not prepared to do well academically while meeting the expectations and demands as athletes, so, in turn, they are given preferential treatment in school, and they are overworked, becoming more athletes that go to college (without truly succeeding academically, as they are supposed to), that students who are also athletes.

In fact, they say that "It is not a question of whether or not the experience for a student-athlete is different from that of a traditional student. Instead, the issue at hand here is whether or not student-athletes are students that participate in extracurricular competitive sports, or have become athletes that also go to classes whenever their athletic schedules allow."

Answer:

  1. Paul D's emotions in jail are cold and insensitive.
  2. The metaphor explains that your emotions are like something inert and that they do not provide any feeling.

Explanation:

"Eighty-six days and done. Life was dead. Paul D beat her butt all day every day until there was not a whimper in her." It is a quote that shows how all the abuses, violent situations and injustice that Paul D suffered faced in prison, left him cold and insensitive to the point that he did not care about the death of life, nor try to save it, on the contrary he wants to be even more violent towards her, hitting life to the point of her, literally losing consciousness and stop moaning.

The metaphor "tobacco tin lodged in his chest", shows how Paul D.'s emotions are non-existent, without interfering in his life. It is as if his emotions were something inert, without movement and expression, like a can of tobacco.

In an experiment, Lee Ross set up a simulated quiz game. He randomly assigned some Stanford University students to play the role
Shalnov [3]

Answer: the contestants and observers thought the questioners were more knowledgeable than the contestants.

Explanation: Ross et al published a paper in the journal of personality and social psychology in 1977 titled

"Social Roles, Social Control, and Biases in Social-Perception Processes". They demonstrated that our actions and perceptions are determined by roles we have to play in interpersonal encounters; this is the biasing effect social roles have on performance.

In this instance the observers and the contestants perceived the questioners as having superior knowledge as the questioners were given latitude in how they frame the questions. Due to their social roles, the questioners were "the powerful" while the contestants and observers were "the powerless" playing out their roles and not taking into account the biasing effect.

If the roles were switched around, the outcome would still be the same with each group irrespective of their actual ability and knowledge.
