Answer to Question 1

B
Repression is the involuntary exclusion of a painful or conflicting thought, impulse, or memory from awareness.

Answer to Question 2

C
When examining the childhood of a person affected with dependent personality disorder, it is quite common to find a history of parents being overly protective and not allowing the child to do things for him- or herself. The parents continued to nurture the child beyond the age when it was appropriate to do so. As a result of not being allowed to do things for him- or herself, the child becomes incompetent and begins to believe that he or she cannot do anything.
