Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Source traits are stable and permanent traits that are the basic factors of personality, derived by the method of factor analysis. Each source trait gives rise to some aspect of behavior.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Surface traits are personality characteristics that correlate with one another but do not constitute a factor because they are not determined by a single source. For example, several behavioral elements such as anxiety, indecision, and irrational fear combine to form the surface trait labeled neuroticism, which does not derive from a single source.
