Answer to Question 1

ANS: F
FEEDBACK: The id has no awareness of reality. The only ways the id can attempt to satisfy its needs are through reflex action and wish-fulfilling hallucinatory or fantasy experience, which Freud labeled primary-process thought.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: The id operates in accordance with what Freud called the pleasure principle. Through its concern with tension reduction, the id functions to increase pleasure and avoid pain.
