Dr. Dewalt went through years of grueling medical school and residency, and is in massive debt from student loans. She feels that doctors should be paid very well if society wants to attract talented people to this type of job. Her view is most consistent with which theory?

Answer: The answer is Structural/ Functional theory

Step-by-step explanation:

This is also called functionalism. It is a theory which views the society as a complex system whose parts work together to promote solidarity and stability. In its view, the society consists of interrelated parts which are structured to meet biological and social needs of the people in it.

Hence, if Doctors are payed well for the job they do, there will be more talented people willing to be doctors.
