Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: As described by Maslow, self-actualizers accept their strengths and weaknesses. They do not try to distort or falsify their self-image, they do not feel guilty about their failings, and they rarely hide their feelings or emotions or play a role to satisfy society. They do not openly rebel against cultural norms or social codes, but they are governed by their own nature rather than the strictures of society.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Based on his research on emotionally healthy people, Maslow concluded that self-actualizers perceive their world, including other people, clearly and objectively, unbiased by prejudgments or preconceptions. Maslow's research on emotionally healthy people formed the basis of his personality theory (1970b, 1971).
