I believe the answer is: Her perceptual set that the house was haunted

Perceptual set refers to human tendency to process the information that we see based on one particular aspect of data while ignoring the others. In the example above, the aspect of data that Jackie used to make her perception is that the house of haunted. So every new information that she receive at that place would be automatically perceived as an extension of her pre-exisitng belief.

the answer should be: The study's construct validity

A study's construct validity refers to the degree to which the experiments made in the study actually measures what it intended to measure. This can be seen on the study's standard of measurement and the correlation between variables used in the measurement and the actual phenomenon.

After hearing the claimed made by the teacher, Clarissa's immediately question whether the act of bullying can be measured.

She brought up an important point. The teacher never really specify what act considered as 'bullying'. Depending on people's perception, some consider a slight discomfort from social interaction might be considered as bullying, while other people might have the threshold.  Because of this, she can say that the study's construct validity is questionable.

Explain what personal involvement in leadership means. Why is being personally involved important? What are some ways a leader c
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Personal involvement is important because leadership is about driving people towards the achievement of a goal, and one of the most effective ways of doing so is engaging personally with the people (the employee).

When a leader has personal involvement, the leader inspires more, and gains more trust from employees, meaning that the goals of the team are more likely to be achieved.

Which example best exemplifies homophily? question 4 options:
kari74 [83]

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).

The psychodynamic theory of human motivation centers on
Effectus [21]

Psychodynamics, also known as psychodynamic psychology, in its broadest sense, is an approach to psychology that emphasizes systematic study of the psychological forces that underlie human behavior, feelings, and emotions and how they might relate to early experience. It is especially interested in the dynamic relations between conscious motivation and unconscious motivation.[1]

The term psychodynamics is also used by some to refer specifically to the psychoanalytical approach developed by Sigmund Freud (1856–1939) and his followers. Freud was inspired by the theory of thermodynamics and used the term psychodynamics to describe the processes of the mind as flows of psychological energy (libido) in an organically complex brain.[2]

There are 4 different schools of thought regarding psychological treatment: Psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, biological, and humanistic treatment. In the treatment of psychological distress, psychodynamic psychotherapy tends to be a less intensive, once- or twice-weekly modality than the classical Freudian psychoanalysis treatment of 3-5 sessions per week. Psychodynamic therapies depend upon a theory of inner conflict, wherein repressed behaviours and emotions surface into the patient’s consciousness; generally, one's conflict is subconscious.[3] Psychodynamic psychotherapies are considered outdated, compared to cognitive-behavioral and interpersonal therapies.
