Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: One of the manifestations of the commitment block is called ignoring commonalities. It occurs when individuals fail to identify similarities between disparate pieces of data. The inability to do this can overload a problem solver by requiring him or her to solve each problem individually, instead of dealing with common elements only once.
