GWD5-Q12 help........

Behavior science courses should be gaining prominence in business school curricula.  Recent theoretical work convincingly shows why behavioral factors such as organizational culture and employee relations are among the few remaining sources of sustainable competitive advantage in modern organizations.  Furthermore, (10) empirical evidence demonstrates clear linkages between human resource (HR) practices based in the behavioral sciences and various aspects of a firm’s financial success. Additionally, some of the world’s most successful organizations have made unique HR practices a core element of their overall business strategies.

Yet the behavior sciences are struggling for credibility in many business schools.  Surveys show that business students often regard behavioral studies as peripheral to the mainstream business curriculum. This perception can be explained by the fact that business students, hoping to increase their attractiveness to prospective employers, are highly sensitive to business norms and practices, and current business practices have generally been moving away from an emphasis on understanding human behavior and toward more mechanistic organizational models.  Furthermore, the status of HR professionals within organizations tends to be lower than that of other executives.

Students’ perceptions would matter less if business schools were not increasingly dependent on external funding—form legislatures, businesses, and private foundations—for survival.  Concerned with their institutions’ ability to attract funding, administrators are increasingly targeting low-enrollment courses and degree programs for elimination.       

Q12:

The author of the passage considers each of the following to be a factor that has contributed to the prevailing attitude in business schools toward the behavioral sciences EXCEPT

 

A.      business students’ sensitivity to current business norms and practices

B.       the relative status of HR professionals among business executives

C.      business schools’ reliance on legislatures, businesses, and private foundations for funding

D.      businesses’ tendency to value mechanistic organizational models over an understanding of human behavior

E.       theoretical work on the relationship between behavioral factors and a firm’s financial performance

答案是E,

这道题我有大问题。。。不知道是我没读懂还是怎么了,文章第二段和第三段明明就在讲behavior science在business school不那么受欢迎的原因,为什么这道题偏偏问关于为什么受欢迎啊?而且选项罗列的内容都是2,3段提到行为科学在商学院之所以不受欢迎的因素啊,学生的态度问题,HR的公司地位问题,商学院对课程的重视问题,哪里是说欢迎了嘛。。。郁闷。。。怎么选啊。。。

是不是我这篇文章彻底理解错误了?
