Solution
The statements that exemplify multiple contingencies thinking are:
-
"The significance of physical attractiveness in a relationship varies with age, gender, culture, and personal preference." This statement takes into account multiple factors (age, gender, culture, personal preference) that can influence the importance of physical attractiveness in a relationship.
-
"In each relationship, gender, age, and social-economic status all play a role." This statement also considers multiple factors (gender, age, socio-economic status) that can affect a relationship.
The other statements do not exemplify multiple contingencies thinking because they make absolute claims without considering multiple factors or contingencies. For example, "We should always look for partners who are intelligent, nice, and creative" does not consider that different people might value different qualities in a partner. Similarly, "Taller people are more attractive" and "When your partner cheats on you, you should break up with him/her" do not consider that people's preferences and reactions can vary depending on many factors.
