Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Anecdotal records are objective descriptions of behavior recorded on plain paper or a form. Characteristic behavior cannot be determined unless several incidents depicting similar behavior are recorded.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
In the halo effect, a logical error occurs when a person is given a high rating on one characteristic because the person received a high rating on another characteristic that is understandably related.
