Question

Phil spent an hour and a half running cables and toying with connections in order to receive cable TV in his room. When he was finished, he got fifty channels, but all of them were kind of fuzzy. His roommate, Jason, arrived home when Phil was done, and they both sat down to watch TV. Which one will enjoy the cable TV the most?

a.Phil, because of a self-fulfilling prophecy
b.Phil, because of justification of effort
c.Jason, because he didn’t have to spend the time hooking it up
d.Jason, because of insufficient punishment

Answer 1

The correct answer is letter "B": Phil, because of justification of effort.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the case given, Phil fixes the TV cable connection in his room even if the signal is fuzzy. Jason arrives at the place after the job is done but, actually, he may be unsatisfied due to the fact that the TV doesn't have the proper signal. So, out of the two of them, Phil would enjoy the TV cable the most because of the effort that is demanded of him to have the service up.
