  a. contemporary norms
  b. computer scoring
  c. incorporation of items scored on scales rather than just true-false items
  d. nearly complete re-scaling

Question 2

Why did the MMPI-2 number the clinical scales rather than retain the scale names that specified clinical conditions such as paranoia and depression?
 
  a. Scales of the MMPI-2 no longer correspond directly to specific diagnoses.
  b. Elevations on a particular scale do not necessarily mean the individual has a particular diagnosis.
  c. The names of the scales made it easier for people to fake and indicate they had the condition when they did not.
  d. Use of numbers made it easier to perform statistical analyses such as regression.

These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
