Answer to Question 1

Barnum

Answer to Question 2

People low in need for achievement choose tasks that are either very easy or very hard, while people with a high need for achievement choose tasks that are moderately difficult. People with a high need for achievement choose challenging (but not impossible) tasks because they want to assess their own abilities. Very easy or very hard tasks do not give a good indication of one's ability level.
