Answer to Question 1

While both disorders are characterized by a lack of social contact, the motivation behind
the exhibited social isolation differs. Avoidant individuals are too frightened to initiate
relationships. Although alone, the avoidant personality very much wants to be with others
but is afraid of rejection. Schizoid individuals are alone because they have no desire to be
with others and are emotionally uninvolved.

Answer to Question 2

A
