This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Timothy, a brilliant investment banker, makes millions each year. He is not very good-looking, but he marries a beautiful, young supermodel. In the context of physical attractiveness, Timothy and his wife most likely exhibit ________ in this scenario.
A. asset matching
B. the ingratiation effect
C. the spotlight effect
D. the mere- exposure effect
Answer:
Timothy and his wife most likely exhibit A. asset matching in this scenario.
Explanation:
Asset matching is a phenomenon observed by psychologists in matching hypothesis. The matching hypothesis concerns the preference individuals display to form relationships with those who resemble them. Resemblance can come in a variety of attributes, such as age, education level, social status, ethnicity, personality traits, values, physical appearance, etc. Asset matching happens because people tend to select partners whose assets are similar to their own. Timothy and his supermodel wife are both wealthy people, which characterizes their selection of each other as asset matching. That wouldn't be the case, however, if Timothy had married a working class woman.
American founding fathers were concerned with the limits of democracy. Their concerns are similar to those of political philosophers such as John Stuart Mill (<em>On Liberty</em>) and Alexis de Tocqueville (<em>Democracy in America</em>). In particular, they were concerned that an excess of democracy would lead to a “tyranny of the majority.”
The tyranny of the majority refers to a situation in democratic rule where a self-interested majority can put their interests above those of the minority. It is an inherent weakness of majority rule and can lead to the oppression of minorities.
Alexander Hamilton wrote to Thomas Jefferson about this worry after The Constitutional Convention in 1787, and the constitution that was drafted reflects these concerns. The Electoral College is partly a safety mechanism to prevent the democratic victory of a tyrannical despot. Other mechanisms introduced were the Bill of Rights and the division of power, which prevents the centralization of all power in one individual, even a democratically elected one.
States have come to depend more on federal funding and intervention in state affairs.
Answer: A) selective avoidance
Explanation:
Selective avoidance is the term that is concerned with the selective exposure in which as person tends to remove or eliminate any contradictory and opposed information.This pattern is seen in events like people turning out the television, tuning out channels etc.
According to the question, Sheetal's act of changing the channel while any beauty product advertisement is displayed is example of selective avoidance.She does not want to watch these ads because she thinks that they have false claims.
Other options are incorrect because justification of the attempts , persuading people to perform certain action and believes through arousing fear and offering people less help if bystander are more is not related with Sheetal's situation.
Thus, the correct option is option(A).
Answer:
The research cannot be classified as a true experiment because the researcher didn't control the participants of each group.
Explanation:
To have more control over the variables, the researcher must also control the assignment of the participants that will be in each group. The intention is that both the experimental and the control group have very similar conditions in order to observe the relationship between the dependent and the independent variable.
