Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

HIGH IN NEED FOR AFFILIATION: (1) Need to be with others and would not want to be thought of as disagreeable, therefore, if a group exerts pressure on them, they are likely to go along with the group compared to those lower in need for affiliation; (2) get nervous when they think others are judging their attractiveness and interpersonal skills; (3) are likely to initiate contacts and try to establish friendships with others; (4) are nominated more often as group leaders; (5) spend more of their time actively engaged in social activities (such as conversing or letter writing when randomly paged, making more phone calls, and, when alone, likely to express a wish to be interacting with others).
