absolutes (Chapter 10) words like always, never, and entirely that often make a statement false in a true-false question

accountability (Chapter 10) understanding the consequences of doing a good job or a poor one
acronym (Chapter 8) a short word made up of the first letters of a longer phrase; a mnemonic device
adaptability skills (Chapter 11) flexibility; how well you cope with change and solve problems as they come up
adequacy (Chapter 5) having enough information; a condition of a sound argument
alternating (Chapter 4) a rebalancing strategy in which concentrated doses of important parts of life are alternated, rather than handled at the same time
analogy (Chapter 8) comparison analytical decision-making style (Chapter 5)
This decision-making style emphasizes a logical approach. Analyticals search carefully for the best decision, and they sometimes get hung up with overanalyzing things and take too long to finally make a decision.

analyze (Chapter 10) break into separate parts and examine or discuss each part
aptitude (Chapter 2) natural ability
argument (Chapter 5)
An argument is a line of reasoning that uses evidence to persuade.
assertions (Chapter 10) statements you claim to be true
assumptions (Chapter 5) things you take
