You're welcome.
To determine whether you answered your questions correctly, let's review each question and provide explanations for the correct answers.
1. Which sociological perspective would likely contend that the role of the mass media is to provide socialization, enforce social norms through public events, and create social stability and cohesion through collective experiences? (Correct answer: functionalist perspective)
The functionalist perspective in sociology focuses on how different parts of society contribute to the overall functioning and stability of the social system. From this perspective, the mass media is seen as an institution that plays a role in socializing individuals, enforcing social norms through public events, and creating social stability and cohesion through collective experiences. So, your answer of functionalist perspective is correct.
2. Which of the following terms did Karl Marx use to refer to an attitude held by members of a class that does not accurately reflect the class's objective position? (Correct answer: false consciousness)
Karl Marx used the term "false consciousness" to describe an attitude held by members of a class that does not accurately reflect the objective position of that class. It refers to a situation where individuals adopt beliefs, values, and attitudes that are contrary to their own class interests. Therefore, your answer of false consciousness is correct.
3. According to the Census Bureau, what percentage of women who are pregnant with their first child work full time? (Correct answer: 57 percent)
To determine whether your answer of 57 percent is correct, we would need access to the latest data from the Census Bureau or a reliable source. Since I do not have real-time access to the Census Bureau's data, I cannot confirm the accuracy of your answer. However, it is important to note that statistical data, such as this, can vary over time due to changes in social and economic factors.
In conclusion, based on the explanations provided, your answers for the first two questions appear to be correct. However, I cannot confirm the accuracy of your answer for the third question without access to the most recent data from the Census Bureau.
