Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: Horney envied her older brother, Berndt, because he was a boy, and girls were considered inferior. She also felt belittled and rejected when her father often made disparaging comments about her intelligence and appearance.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Primarily due to the women's movement that began in the 1960s, Horney's books again attracted attention. Her writings on feminine psychology and sexuality may constitute the most influential of her contributions, of value to scholars on the role of women in society well more than 50 years after Horney's death.
