At the grocery store, mothers often keep children busy by letting them drive the cart. Little do the children realize that the steering wheel they are playing with does not control anything.
 
  This example demonstrates our sometimes misplaced sense of control over
   a. free will and our own behavior.
   b. self-esteem and our own feelings.
   c. schemas and their contents.
   d. heuristics and their processes.

Question 2

In a study on facilitated communication, headphones were used to ask the communication-impaired person one question and the facilitator a different question (unbeknownst to the two parties).
 
  Then the answers provided by the communication-impaired person with the help of the facilitator were examined. Findings indicated that the technique was
   a. successful; the facilitators conveyed the answers of their partners and ignored the questions they themselves were asked.
   b. a fraud; the facilitators were deliberately faking their answers.
   c. ineffective; the facilitators answered the question they were asked but believed they were answering the question asked of the others.
   d. ineffective; there were technical problems with the keyboard.
