Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Individuals strong in commitment believe in the truth and value of who they are and what they are doing. They have a sense of meaning and purpose in work and relationships. Therefore they remain committed and deeply involved rather than allowing themselves to become alienated by fear, uncertainty, or boredom. The term challenge reflects an outlook on life that enables an individual to perceive change as an opportunity for growth rather than a threat to one's sense of security or survival. Change, rather than stability, is seen as the common mode of life. The term control reflects a belief that one can influence the course of life events within reasonable limits. Hardy individuals have an internal sense of personal mastery, confronting problems with confidence in their ability to implement effective solutions.
