Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: In attempting to realize their unattainable idealized self-image, neurotics engage in what Horney called the tyranny of the shoulds. Because they find their real self-image so undesirable, they believe they must live up to their illusory, idealized self-image, in which they see themselves in a highly positive light, for example, being virtuous, honest, generous, considerate, and courageous.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: In normal people, the self-image is built on a realistic appraisal of our abilities, potentials, weaknesses, goals, and relations with other people. This image provides a sense of unity and integration to the personality and a framework within which to approach others and ourselves.
