Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: The major way parents weaken or prevent security is by displaying a lack of warmth and affection. Horney believed that childhood was dominated by the safety need, by which she meant the need for security and freedom from fear. She believed children could withstand much that is usually considered traumatic, such as abrupt weaning, occasional beatings, or even premature sexual experiences, as long as they feel wanted and loved and, therefore, secure.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: An early feminist, she argued that psychoanalysis focused more on men's development than on women's. Horney believed that social forces in childhood, not biological forces, influence personality development. Horney believed that childhood was dominated by the safety need, by which she meant the need for security and freedom from fear. A child's security depends entirely on how the parents treat the child.
