Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Horney focused on her patients' visible emotional reactions toward her, believing that
these could explain her patients' attitudes toward other people. She did not delve into presumed infantile sexual fantasies but inquired about the early years of patients' life only after evaluating their present attitudes, defenses, and conflicts.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: The most basic difference in technique between Horney and Freud was in the relationship between analyst and patient. Horney believed that Freud played too passive a role and was too distant and intellectual. She suggested that analysis should be an exquisitely cooperative enterprise between patient and therapist.
