Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: Jung did not believe that libido was primarily a sexual energy; he argued instead that it was a broad, undifferentiated life energy. Jung used the term libido in two ways: first, as a diffuse and general life energy, and second, from a perspective similar to Freuds, as a narrower psychic energy that fuels the work of the personality, which he called the psyche.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: Jung concluded that the most crucial stage in personality development was not childhood, as Freud believed, but middle age, which was the time of his own crisis.
