Answer to Question 1

After years of having conditions of worth imposed on us by other people, we begin to apply conditions of worth to ourselves. We give ourselves affection and acceptance only when we meet those conditions. This pattern of self-acceptance/self-rejection (conditional self-regard) makes us shift behavior to fit the self-imposed conditions of worth. These behavioral changes engender changes in our personalities, which can interfere with self-actualization. Self-actualization should have first priority, but because the need for positive regard is so salient, it is often the prevailing influence.
