Dr. Gore is conducting a survey examining people's opinions toward funding for collegiate athletics on his campus. He notices that several participants agree with all 12 questions. This could be an example of all of the following EXCEPT:a. a response set.b. acquiescence.c. yea-saying.d. fence sitting.

Fence sitting is the situation were a person is unable to decide between two options present in any argument, questioning, competition etc.This indecisiveness can be due to lack of courage or confusion.

According to the question, fence sitting concept is not applicable on results obtained from research of Dr.Gore as mostly students are able to make decision about the question.Thus, lack of decisiveness is not shown through this scenario.

Other options are incorrect because yea-saying, response set and acquiescence are not the factors that lack to define opting between two or more side in any situation or argument.Thus, the correct option is option(d).
