Jack and Diane have been dating and living together for two years. Jack always puts Diane's needs before his own, is very supportive of Diane, and devotes a great deal of time and energy to the relationship. Diane, on the other hand, focuses on her own needs and problems and does not exert a great deal of effort when it comes to the relationship. According to equity theorists,
 
  a. Jack should feel under benefited and upset about the nature of the relationship, whereas Diane will be contentbecause her needs are being met at minimal cost to her.
 b. Jack and Diane should be content with the relationship because people in an equity relationship do not keeptrack of costs and benefits.
 c. Jack should feel under benefited and upset about the nature of the relationship, and Diane should feel overbenefited and guilty.
 d. Jack should feel content with the relationship because he knows he's working for his partner's happiness, butDiane will feel over benefited and guilty.

Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

When researchers examine the relationship between variables that vary in quantity
(such as height or degree of self-esteem), they can measure the strength and direction
of the relationship between the variables and calculate a statistic called a correlation
coefficient. Correlation coefficients can range from 11.0 to 21.0 . The absolute value of
the number (the number itself, without the positive or negative sign) indicates how
strongly the two variables are associated. The larger the absolute value of the number,
the stronger the association between the two variables, and thus the better either of the
variables is as a predictor of the other. Whether the coefficient is positive or negative
indicates the direction of the relationship. A positive correlation coefficient indicates
that as one variable increases, so does the other.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
