Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
Lack of multicultural information in textbooks leads to racial bias, exemplified by invisibility, stereotyping, and linguistic bias. Promotion of open discussion of cultural differences would indicate that racial bias has the effect of promoting racial tension by not providing opportunity to discuss various cultural practices.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C
Distractibility, inability to stay focused on tasks, poor memory, poor organizational skills, and lack of follow-through are characteristics consistent with adult attention deficit disorder (ADD). Even-temperedness does not suggest ADD. The individual with ADD would be more likely to overreact to everyday situations and have a volatile temperament. Working the same job for 5 years with good evaluations is inconsistent with the characteristics of an individual diagnosed with ADD. The individual with ADD would be more likely to work for only a short time, have difficulty with supervisory relationships, and be seen as shirking work.
