Modifications to guidelines governing actions of agencies are described by which term?

• A. Change in policy
• B. Campaigns for change
• C. Change in law
• D. Media effectiveness

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is that guidelines directing how an agency should act are part of its policy framework. When those guidelines are updated or altered, what has happened is a change in policy. This reflects a shift in how the agency is supposed to operate in practice without changing the underlying legal statutes.

A change in law would involve formal legislation and statutory rules, not simply updating internal guidelines. Campaigns for change refer to efforts to persuade others to adopt new policies or laws, rather than the actual modification of guidelines. Media effectiveness concerns how well media influences policy, not the act of modifying guidelines.
