Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: The major methods used in personality research are the clinical method, the experimental method, virtual research, and the correlational method. The primary clinical method is the case study or case history, in which psychologists probe their patients' past and present lives for clues to the source of their emotional problems.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Although some personality tests have been translated for use in other cultures, there are potential problems with their cross-cultural application. Responding to items in a true-false format or multiple-choice format seems natural to American college students, who have been taking these types of tests since childhood. To others, it may be an awkward and alien way of answering questions.
