Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: CE competing was linked to high self-esteem and low depression among high school students. Researchers identified two types of competitiveness: competing to win (CW) in order to dominate others, and competing to excel (CE) to surpass one's personal goals.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Hyper-competitive men were found to be hyper-masculine or macho, who believe that women are sex objects who deserved neither respect nor consideration. People who scored high on competitiveness were also high in narcissism, neuroticism, authoritarianism, dogmatism, and mistrust, and low in self-esteem and psychological health.
