The statement provided is <em><u>false.</u></em> It is not true to say that most skilled individuals texting are less likely to have an accident compared to the ones that have to look at their phones. Texting while driving is one of the most dangerous activities to engage in when driving. When driving, having to multitask becomes a threat to the physical integrity of the driver and of others, as the driver will lose attention capacity because of performing another action besides driving.

The National Safety Council has reported that cell phone use while driving leads to 1.6 million crashes each year. This statistic is not affected by the level of skill in texting that the driver has, the mere fact of texting while driving, even if the driver does not look at the phone to text, is already enough to cause an accident.

What was one significant accomplishment of the Hoover administration during his first year in office?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The best answer to your question: What was one significant accomplishment of the Hoover administration during his first year in office, would be, B: Creation of a federal agricultural program to regulate farm prices.

Explanation:

Herbert Hoover became the 31st president of the United States right when the country, and the world, was on the verge of a major financial crisis; the Great Depression. Although Hoover attempted several policies to try and help change the situation, both his conservative views on government interventionism, and other factors, prevented these policies from having the desired effect. Among the many areas of American life in which Hoover attempted to help with his policies, was the agricultural field. As such, in 1929 he signed into law the Agricultural Maketing Act, and established with it the Federal Farm Board, which attempted to stabilize prices through cooperatives and corporations, ensure the proper sale of American agricultural products and also ensure the buying of the surplus production by the federal government to help with the stabilization of prices. This is why the answer is B.

SashulF [63]

The correct answer is the actor-observer bias.

The actor-observer bias (AOB) refers to the phenomenon where we attribute our own behavior to external factors beyond our personal control, while attributing others' behavior to factors internal to them, and fully within their control. In this instance, Tom believes that he is unable to stop gambling due to the negative influence of his friends (an external factor beyond his control), while believing that Barnaby is unable to stop gambling because he is addicted to it (a factor internal to Barnaby). Thus, Tom is demonstrating the actor-observer bias
