Question 51

Mark has already done his literature review and developed his hypotheses for his topic of the influence of social class on gender discrimination. His literature showed that those in upper social classes tend to experience less gender discrimination. As such he hypothesized that those in lower social classes will experience greater gender discrimination. However, he knows that many people who are in poverty are wary of discussing gender discrimination directly because it is such a hot-button social issue. Of all these, which will have the strongest influence on Mark's research design?
