Question

consider this claim: what you wear can affect how well you work. which is the strongest evidence to support the claim? researchers have found that a combination of appearance and communication skills affects how people behave toward you in a work environment. in one study, participants reported feeling more professional when they wore professional dress. a study conducted at the kellogg school of management at northwestern university showed that when research subjects wore a scientists or medical doctors white coat, they performed better on a test.

Explanation:

To support the claim that what you wear affects work performance, we analyze each option:

• The first option focuses on how others behave toward you (not your work output/quality).
• The second option is about feeling more professional (subjective feeling, not direct work performance).
• The third option (Kellogg School study) shows that wearing a white coat led to better test performance, directly linking attire to work - related performance (test results as a measure of work - like output).

Answer:

A study conducted at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University showed that when research subjects wore a scientist's or medical doctor's white coat, they performed better on a test.
