B. Everyone else who lives on Cathy's block has a hang glider.
C. Cathy recently read an article in a magazine about hang gliders.
D. Cathy just saw a movie in which the star flew with a hang glider
Internal factors are things such as needs, motives, and perceptions, while external factors include things such as family, friends, or social media. Options B, C, and D are external factors because the decision to buy would be based on the people on her block, a magazine article, or a movie. Only option A is based on Cathy's own perception.

Answer:
A). The writer uses empirical evidence by including specific data about student debt and loans.
B). The writer uses empirical evidence by stating the exact amount of debt that his daughter owes.
F). The writer uses anecdotal evidence by sharing a personal connection to the student debt problem.
Explanation:
The authors employ a variety of evidences to substantiate their claim in order to establish their credibility and validity of their claim. In the given passage, the author primarily employs 'anecdotal and empirical evidences' to authenticate their claim.
'Empirical evidence' is illustrated as the evidence that are produced or generated by the researchers through necessary experimentation and observation(here the father recognizes the amount of money his daughter owes i.e. $50,000 and inclusion of particular data regarding student debts and loans). While the 'Anecdotal evidence' is described as the evidence molded in the form of a story that involves decisive reliability on personal testimonies(here the father presents his personal affiliation to wider issue of student debt). Thus, <u>options A, B, and F</u> are correct.
