Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: On the naturenurture issue, Rogers gave prominence to the role of the environment. Although the actualization tendency is innate, the actualizing process itself is influenced more by social than by biological forces.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Rogers used the word actualizing, not actualized, to characterize the fully functioning person. The latter term implies a finished or static personality, which was not Rogers's intent. Self-development is always in progress. Rogers wrote that being fully functioning is a direction, not a destination.
