Common use of Hypotheses Clause in Contracts

Hypotheses. We expected to find an association between preference and friendship quality and that this association would be mediated by empathy and prosocial behavior, since previous studies have found these three constructs to be related. When distinguishing actor and partner effects, we expected an actor effect of preference on a more positive percep- tion of the friendship by the actor, due to more empathy and more prosocial behavior of the actor. For both preference and popularity we expected partner effects. For preference as a predictor, we expected these effects to be explained
