Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Adler believed that getting along with others is the first task we encounter in life. Our level of ability to get along with other people becomes part of our style of life, and therefore influences how well or poorly we will deal with all of life's problems. He described this as the concept of social interest.
