Answer:
The electoral college consists of 538 electors, who choose the president of the United States. These electors are sent from the states, in proportion to their population, and in all states except for Maine and Nebraska, the electors are bound to the candidate that obtains the plurality of votes in the state.
Some presidents have been elected despite having lost the popular vote.
An example from the 19th century is Rutherford B. Hayes, who lost the popular vote to his contender, Samuel J. Tilden, but still won because he got 20 more electoral votes.
An example from the 21st century is the most recent election: Donald Trump lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton, but won the electoral college (304 votes vs Clinton's 227 votes). In part this is because Trump won several crucial states by very small margins, for example, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
Answer: Absolute threshold
Explanation: The absolute threshold is the minimum amount of energy, or quantity of a stimulus, required for it to be reliably detected at least 50% of the time it is presented. In this example, thedoctor is trying to find the quietest sound Ann can reliably detect (i.e., the absolute threshold). In contrast, to determine a difference threshold, the doctor would need to ask Ann if she perceived two sounds as being the same or different volumes.
Answer: The Value stage.
Explanation: This stage corresponds to the period in which there is an exchange of behavior between the couple; the appearance or physical attractiveness of the scale of values or both members of the dyad is no longer valued and is in this moment when the couple begin to really "know" each other personal facts or tendencies.
The answer that best fits the blank is PROJECTIVE MEASURE. Since Dr. Crane is searching for a test that he can utilize for a better understanding about the unconscious motivations of his client, therefore, he would most likely use a projective measure. This type of measure is by letting the client respond to the given stimulus.
