Solution

failed
failed

The answer is (b): spread.

Explanation for each option: a) Constant: This term does not typically describe a type of footing in construction. b) Spread: A spread footing is a common type of foundation that spreads the load from the structure over a larger area, which is suitable for continuous wall foundations. c) Frame: This term refers to a structural system, not a type of footing. d) T: While T-shaped footings are used in some contexts, they are not typically described as supporting continuous concrete walls in the same way spread footings are.

Summary: The correct term to complete the sentence is "spread," as it accurately describes the type of footing that supports a continuous concrete wall in foundation construction.

Positive events are great, but recent research suggests that unexpected positive outcomes (e.g., an unseasonably sunny day) predict greater-than-normal amounts of risk-taking and gambling (Otto, Fleming, Glimcher, 2016). Researchers demonstrated this by comparing lottery sales-indicative of risk-taking-on normal days with lottery sales on days when some unexpected positive event occurred in the city. They observed increased sales after unexpected positive outcomes. Suppose that a researcher extends this observation to the laboratory and randomly assigns participants to two groups. Group 1 receives an unexpectedly large payment for participating and Group 2 receives the expected amount of compensation. The researcher then measures how much money the participants are willing to gamble in a game of chance. Unexpected Positive Outcome Expected Outcome --- --- n=16 n=16 M=5.75 M=5.00 SS=6.5 SS=10.0 Test the one-tailed hypothesis that an unexpected positive outcome increased the amount of money that participants were willing to gamble. Use a α=.01.
