Doug has known manesh for more than 20 years. jim has only known manesh since he joined jim’s department at acme advertising agency 2 months ago. according to colvin and funder’s (1991) study of the boundaries on the acquaintanceship effect, if both doug and jim are asked to predict how manesh will behave during a presentation at work next week, whose predictions will be more accurate?
a. doug’s
b. jim’s
c. the two predictions will be about equally accurate.
d. neither doug’s nor jim’s; such behavior is not predictable

c)The two predictions will be about equally accurate.

Explanation: According to the theory of  Colvin and Funder, it states that acquaintance's and stranger's decision or judgement are equally well for predicting about the behavior of any individual person.

Thus, the prediction made by Doug and Jim will predict the accurate judgement regarding Manesh's behavior.Other options are incorrect because both will give accurate predictions and judgment on the behavior can be made.Thus, the correct option is option(c).
