1. Grace, Daniel et al. It's in Me to Give: Canadian Gay, Bisexual, and Queer Men's Willingness to Donate Blood If Eligible Despite Feelings of Policy Discrimination (2020)
Abstract:
Blood donation policies governing men who have sex with men have shifted significantly over time in Canada from an initial lifetime ban in the wake of the AIDS crisis to successive phases of time-based deferment requiring periods of sexual abstinence (5 years to 1 year to 3 months). We interviewed 39 HIV-negative gay, bisexual, queer, and other sexual minority men (GBM) in Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal to understand their willingness to donate blood if eligible. Transcripts were coded following inductive thematic analysis. We found interrelated and competing expressions of biological and sexual citizenship. Most participants said they were "safe"/"low risk" and "willing" donors and would gain satisfaction and civic pride from donation. Conversely, a smaller group neither prioritized the collectivizing biological citizenship goals associated with expanding blood donation access nor saw this as part of sexual citizenship priorities. Considerable repair work is required by Canada's blood operators to build trust with diverse. GBM communities. Which of the following categories best characterizes this type of research?

4. True/False: Blades and Linzer found evidence of deep-seated anti-American opinions in Iran, stemming from American interference in Iranian politics in the 20th Century, including instigating a coup and supporting a corrupt dictator.
5. Which of the following sentences best describes how Blades and Linzer's research would cause someone to doubt Friedman's prescription for breaking the deadlock in negotiating with Iran?
- Blades and Linzer's research suggested that Iranians would be skeptical of American appeals to the public even if the Iranian regime allowed more free speech and discussion around the issue.
- Blaydes and Linzer's research suggested that Friedman underestimated Iranian nationalism in the country's desire to develop nuclear capabilities.
- Blades and Linzer's research suggested that Friedman underestimated how the Iranian regime would respond to public calls to make concessions regarding the country's nuclear capabilities.
- Blaydes and Linzer's research suggested that Friedman was over-confident in the US Secretary of State's rhetorical abilities.
