Answer to Question 1

FALSE
Explanation: According to the Big Five model, a drawback of extraverts is that they tend to be more impulsive than introverts and engage in risky behavior such as unprotected sex, drinking, and other sensation-seeking acts.

Answer to Question 2

A

Not only do they see their work as more fulfilling and challenging, they are also more likely to gravitate toward challenging jobs in the first place.
