Answer to Question 1

4
Dissociative identity disorder develops as a defense against prolonged and inescapable trauma.

Answer to Question 2

C
A lack of internal controls leads to manipulative behaviors such as lying, cheating, conning, and flattering. To protect the rights of others, external controls are implemented until the patient is able to develop internal controls (i.e., to control his behavior on his own). Properly implemented, limit setting does not provide the patient with undue attention. Although patients may become angry when limits are set, limits are not designed to draw the focus of a patient's anger off some other target. Limit setting can sometimes reduce patient anxiety but in other cases can temporarily increase it.
