Answer:

Explanation:

1. Selective attention is the process of directing our awareness to relevant stimuli while ignoring the irrelevant. For example: when you pay attention to a professor in a class or doing your homework. A distraction defined by the Cambridge dictionary is “the state of being bored or something that prevents someone from giving their attention. For example, cellphones are a distraction when you are in school. Divided attention is when you perform two tasks at the same time. For example: when you watch a movie with subtitles or watch the tv while eating. Attentional capture is when an irrelevant item that is unique in some way affects the time to detect a target. For example: trying to find a seat at the cinema even though your friend is waving at you and you don’t notice. Scanning is reading a text quickly in order to find specific information. For example: A DMV employee needs to scan your information to get the details necessary.

2. The procedure consisted in turning down a volume of either one of the 4 sources that were available; or attenuate 3 in order to attend the fourth one. In the process they found that the participant could process the meaning of attend messages. Also, participants could still be able to identify the context of unattended messages; indicating they could identify both attended and unattended messages. The cocktail party effect is when you focus on a single speaker in any environment, even though the voice is surrounded by other noises. It demonstrated the capability of the human being to understand a speech if they really focus; listening to it and leaving all the distractions behind.

3. The broadbent’s model wanted to see how people were able to focus their attention (selective) by deliberately overloading them with stimuli. One of the ways was to send a message to one ear and a different message to the other. It is called the early selection model because it was one of the pioneers of creating a model who uses selective attention.

Answer:

South Carolina Ordinance of Nullification, Nov 24, 1832.How was this ordinance a defense of state's rights?

Federal taxes on imports cannot be imposed if the state considers the actions unconstitutional.

What 1828 political party rejected the national bank and supported the presidential campaign of Andrew Jackson?

Democratic Party.

Explanation:

The United States imposed a series of tariffs in the early 19th century to protect and promote US industries over European ones. The most important of these was the Tariff of 1828. While these tariffs benefited the northern industrial states, the agrarian southern ones suffered the most as they imported most of their manufactured products. When president Andrew Jackson failed to significantly change the tariffs in 1832, South Carolina reacted by issuing the "Ordinance of Nullification" in November 24, 1832, declaring the tariffs null and void in the state. They considered that any actions that were against the constitution, such as the federal taxes on imports, can be rendered void by states. The federal government prepared to intervene by force in the state, but the revised Compromise Tariff of 1833 was considered good enough by South Carolina, ending the crisis.

The Democratic Party arose as a result of a split of the old Democratic-Republican Party, as the Democratic faction led by Andrew Jackson sought a party that was based on Jefferson's ideas and closer to the "common man". It opposed slavery and the establishment of a national bank .
