When Studying Socioeconomic Influences on Choice, Researchers Hypothesize That Working-Class

Question 35

Multiple Choice

When studying socioeconomic influences on choice, researchers hypothesize that working-class adults will perceive and experience choice differently than upper-middle-class adults.What is the rationale for this hypothesis?


A) Because of their relatively lower income, working-class (versus upper-middle-class) adults experience fewer opportunities to make choices and more situations where there are constraints on their personal choices.
B) Because of their relatively lower income, working-class (versus upper-middle-class) adults care less about making choices in daily life.
C) Because of their relatively higher income, upper-middle-class (versus working-class) adults have a lot more friends, and thus more opportunities to make choices.
D) Because of their relatively longer work hours, upper-middle-class (versus working-class) adults have fewer opportunities to make choices in daily life, so they are very excited to make choices when the opportunity arises.
E) Because of their relatively longer work hours, working-class (versus upper-middle-class) adults spend less time with family, and thus experience fewer social constraints on their choices.
