Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Native American culture stresses living in harmony with nature. Cooperative, sharing styles rather
than competitive or intrusive approaches are preferred; thus the more passive style described in
option 4 would be best received. The other options would be more effective to use with clients with
a Western orientation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Fixation at the oral stage sometimes produces dependent infantile behaviors in adults. Option A:
Latency fixations often result in difficulty identifying with others and developing social skills,
resulting in a sense of inadequacy and inferiority. Option B: Phallic fixations result in having
difficulty with authority figures and poor sexual identity. Option C: Anal fixation sometimes results
in retentiveness, rigidity, messiness, destructiveness, and cruelty.
