Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Peer pressure and lack of management support are examples of internal variables that can affect training transfer. In this case, Anderson may not be receiving the necessary reinforcement and support from his colleagues and superiors to apply the safety measures he learned during the training program, leading to a lack of transfer.
