Answer to Question 1

Answer: Your partner's neuroticism can affect you in negative ways. One study has found that heart surgery patients had more depressive symptoms 18 months later if they had a neurotic spouse.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Randy likely scores better under pressure than those who score higher on neuroticism. Neurotic people often choke under pressure because they are not calm and worry a lot.
