What is the advantage of having domestic partnerships for same sex couples?

What will be an ideal response?


Suggested Response:
• The purpose of legal recognition for domestic partnerships is to provide gay couples with the same legal rights married couples enjoy: being able to inherit a partner's property, being eligible for a partner's survival benefits, or having the right to make decisions for an incapacitated partner.
• Gays and lesbians who desire state-recognized marriage give reasons similar to those of heterosexuals: to make public statements about their commitment to each other, including the pledge to maintain a monogamous relationship.
• Since up to 40% of employee compensation comes via employee benefits, LGBT workers miss out on these benefits. Legal domestic partnerships would allow these workers to receive benefits.

An experiment was conducted to see how people with eating disorders differ in their need to exert control in different domains. Participants were classified as not having an eating disorder (control), as having anorexia nervosa (anorexic), or as having bulimia nervosa (bulimic). Each participant underwent an experiment that indicated how much they felt the need to exert control in three domains: eating, friendships and the physical world (this final category was a control domain in which the need to have control over things like gravity or the weather was assessed). So all participants gave three responses in the form of a mean reaction time; a low reaction time meant that the person did feel the need to exert control in that domain. The variables have been labelled as group (control,

anorexic, or bulimic) and domain (food, friends, or physical laws). Looking at the output below, what can we conclude about the main effect of the domain variable?


A. People with eating disorders need to exert more control over different domains of their life compared to controls, F(1.55, 41.89) = 8.02, p < .01.
B. There was a significant effect of domain, F(1.55, 41.89) = 8.02, p = .001, on the degree to which people felt the need to exert control.
C. There was a significant effect of domain, F(2, 54) = 8.02, p < .01, on the degree to which people felt the need to exert control.
D. There was not a significant effect of domain, F(2, 54) = 8.02, p < .05, on the degree to which people felt the need to exert control.
