Answer to Question 1

A
Research by Andrews and Boyle (2008) suggests that Asians require smaller doses of neuroleptics. This may be due in part to a slower metabolism and the low-protein, high-carbohydrate diet of Asians in comparison to European Americans.

Answer to Question 2

B
A person displaying passive-aggressive or negativistic personality behaviors most likely had a childhood marked with an abrupt loss of nurturance, followed by unfair or excessive developmental demands. This most frequently occurs when the firstborn child is displaced by the birth of a younger sibling. Eventually the child learns to get back at authority figures indirectly by taking a long time to perform tasks or by doing the task requested poorly, with obvious flaws. The person's passive-aggressive behavior is a result of being unwilling or unable to directly express one's frustrations with others.
