Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: According to Kelly, it is the operation of our rational mental processes and not the specific events that influence the formation of personality. We live by constructs based on our interpretation of events.

FEEDBACK: Kelly suggested that if several people construe an experience similarly, we can conclude that their cognitive processes are similar. Their anticipations and expectations of one another will have much in common and they will construe many of their experiences in the same way.
