Answer:

defensive bias

Explanation:

Defensive bias is a form of defense mechanism that people do when they are feeling a threat. Rather than acknowledging the threat, people with defensive choose to minimize the fear from the threat by attributing the cause of the threat to something that is outside of their control.

We can see this in Jared's situation.

When he received a negative review, he felt threaten that he might lost his job since he fail to met a certain standard.  

To cope with the fear from the threat, he attribute it to other things and blame the management for giving 'unrealistic goals' rather than improving his productivity.

Sati [7]
The correct answer is regression.
The child is regressing to a previous age when he used to wet the bed. He is now six years old, so he is supposed to be old enough not to wet the bed anymore, which was the case until his baby brother was born. Now the older child feels neglected and starts regressing to an earlier age in order to be noticed by his parents again.

Majority voting fails to incorporate the strength of the preferences of individual voters and therefore?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: It produces inefficient economic results under certain conditions

Explanation: The above situation is known as the paradox of voting,which tries to show that the cost of voting will always be higher than the result obtained from the voting process.This is because Majority voting undermines the importance of an individual voter. This issue was first highlighted in 1793 by Nicolas de Condorcet,where noted that in a single stage election the influence of a single voter reduces as the number of voters increase.

The paradox of voting further highlights that the expected results/outcome of a voter from an electioneering process is less than what the initial expectations.
