Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Propriate motives are unique to each individual. The ego determines which motives will be maintained and which will be discarded. We retain motives that enhance our self-esteem or self-image.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Propriate functional autonomy is more important than perseverative functional autonomy and is essential to understanding adult motivation. The word propriate derives from proprium, Allport's term for the ego or self.
