Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Beginning in the 1970s, psychologist Marvin Zuckerman, at the University of Delaware, conducted research on a limited-domain aspect of personality he called sensation seeking. This trait has a large hereditary component initially noted by Eysenck.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: A large-scale research program using both college students and sales representatives as subjects reported a strong relationship between Rotter's concept of locus of control and Bandura's concept of self-efficacy (Judge, Erez, Bono, & Thoresen, 2002). Some researchers have suggested that both ideas deal with our perception or belief about the degree of control we have over events in our life and our ability to cope with them.
