    c) The more CDs Jamila buys, the less money she has in her bank account.

    Explanation:

    A hypothesis is an assumption of relationship between two or more variables.

    Sociological hypothesis is an assumption that one human behaviour will influence another.

    Let's take each of the options.

    a) The more study halls students are given during the school day, the worse they perform on their tests.

    Implies that the action of giving more study hall caused a decline in performance in tests (behavioural).

    b) The longer an inmate spends in prison, the more difficult it is for him to adapt to the outside world.

    Implies that when an inmate stays longer in prison behavioural ability to adapt to the outside work declines (behavioural).

    c) The more CDs Jamila buys, the less money she has in her bank account.

    Does not involve assumptions about behaviour, just a financial fact that the more CDs Jamila buys her money will reduce.
