When Imelda considers which of five movies most deserves an Oscar, she moves beyond the stance that everything is a matter of opinion and generates rational criteria against which the movies can be evaluated. Imelda is engaged in __________
A) dualistic thinkingB) relativistic thinkingC) pragmatic thoughtD) commitment within relativistic thinking

Answer 1

Answer:

D - Commitment within relativistic thinking.

Explanation:

The relativistic thinking is the belief that everything is relative, that if you adopt different perspectives you might get different results. The reality and it's cognition is relative. Therefore, there is no absolute truth. Imelda does think of this because she claims that everything is a matter of opinion. Now, this is also commitment within relativistic thinking because she integrates outside knowledge with her personal experience and reflection.
