Answer to Question 1

B
This generation situation can be a problem for many adults in that they face multiple responsibilities, resulting in increased levels of stress.

Answer to Question 2

A
Identification occurs when an individual takes on personal characteristics of someone she admires, especially when she has low-self esteem or poor self-concept. Symbolization involves the use of unrelated objects to represent a hidden idea. Displacement involves the redirecting of energies to another person or object; projection occurs when an individual projects onto another person his or her unacceptable thoughts or emotions.
