Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: Freud sensed strong sexual conflicts in the infant and young child, conflicts that seemed to revolve around specific regions of the body. From this information, he derived his theory of the psychosexual stages of development; each stage is defined by an erogenous zone of the body. In each developmental stage, a conflict exists that must be resolved before the infant or child can progress to the next stage.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: A way of defending against disturbing impulses is to project them on to someone else. This defense mechanism is called projection.
