Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Conditional positive regard is the approval, love, or acceptance granted only when a person expresses desirable behaviors and attitudes. If a parent expresses annoyance every time the infant drops an object out of the crib, the child learns to disapprove of himself or herself for behaving that way.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Unconditional positive regard is the approval granted regardless of a person's behavior. In Rogers's person-centered therapy, the therapist offers the client unconditional positive regard.
