Answer to Question 1

Instrumental traits enable one to accomplish tasks and goals, such as aggressiveness, self-confidence, and dominance. Expressive traits are those used to describe feminine behavior such as gentleness, lovingness, and supportiveness.

Answer to Question 2

Although cash value or whole-life insurance is considerably more expensive than term insurance, the policy builds savings, or a cash value that in recent years has paid a high return. The couple would have to assess whether they can afford the higher premiums. Whatever policy they choose should be one that would cover the economic loss that would occur at an early death.
