Answer to Question 1

a;

Answer to Question 2

The power or status differential between people is significant when interpreting ambiguous and negative social
interactions between high- and low-power individuals because the low-power person is susceptible to paranoia.
The high-power person who does not receive an acknowledgement from a colleague assigns a situational
attribution to the interaction by interpreting that person as having a busy day or not even being aware of the other
person. In contrast, the low-power person reacts to this lack of acknowledgment by becoming upset and assigning
a negative dispositional attribution, like arrogance or passive-aggressive punishment, to the high-power person.
