Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Cattell accepted the influence on personality of both nature and nurture. For example, constitutional traits are innate, whereas environmental-mold traits are learned.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Cattell's definition of personality gives us clues about his view of human nature. He did not propose any ultimate or necessary goal that dominates behavior, no drive for self-actualization to pull us toward the future, no psychosexual conflicts to push us from the past.
