Stereotype threat is more likely to affect those who are high achievers because high achievers are prone to greater expectations than low achievers. Since expectations are bigger, whenever high achievers fail, they feel more unworthy of the expectation towards the people.

Answer:

This is an example of habituation.

Explanation:

Habituation refers to the decrease in the response to a stimulus after a prolonged exposition to that stimulus. In the situation we are analyzing here, you are experiencing habituation. The stimulus - the sound of the tornado siren - no longer provokes a response from you. When it was a novelty, something you hadn't gotten used to yet, you would be startled. However, after hearing it over and over again, you no longer jump at its sound. You are now habituated to it.

Why did the Americans want to expand across the continent?

Masja [62]

Answer: "The primary reason the U.S. expanded its influence in foreign countries: Economic reasons – industrialization in the late 1800s increased the need to trade with other countries. Sales of American goods to foreign countries were important to the workers in the U.S."

Explanation: "One of the main reasons was for personal economic gain. Many Americans believed that if they could not succeed where they were, they could always move West and start over. After all, that was how the nation had grown so large. The Panic of 1837 was an incentive for many, but the migration had begun before then."
