Answer to Question 1

While both disorders are characterized by a lack of social contact, the motivation behind
the exhibited social isolation differs. Avoidant individuals are too frightened to initiate
relationships. Although alone, the avoidant personality very much wants to be with others
but is afraid of rejection. Schizoid individuals are alone because they have no desire to be
with others and are emotionally uninvolved.

Answer to Question 2

A

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
