Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Adler considered only-borns to be more selfish. However, research has not consistently supported this notion. One study found that only children were more cooperative than first-borns or last-borns.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Adler predicted that last-born children, if excessively pampered, would have adjustment problems as adults. Other research suggests that last-borns may feel a greater degree of academic rivalry with their siblings than first-borns do.
