Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Rogers's therapy has broad application not only as a treatment for emotional disturbances but also as a means of enhancing the self-image. In the helping professions, it is used to train clinical psychologists, social workers, and counselors. In addition, psychotherapists of many different orientations have accepted some of Rogers's core concepts in their therapeutic work with clients.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Critics charge that Rogers ignored those factors of which the client was not consciously aware but which could influence behavior. People may distort reports of their subjective experiences, repressing some events and elaborating on or inventing others, to conceal their true nature and present an idealized self-image.
