Answer to Question 1

D
Freud associated a girl's feelings of disappointed with her feelings of deprivation, since she no longer receives the level of love and attention from her mother that the girl received as a baby. The other three options relate to earlier developmental stages according to the psychoanalytic framework.

Answer to Question 2

C
Women more commonly than men experience predominant depression. Women are about twice as likely to be affected by unipolar depression as men. However, women are no more likely than men to have bipolar disorder. Some of the difference in rate between the two conditions is due to the increased frequency of unipolar disorder in women. Depressive disease in men is about evenly divided between unipolar and bipolar.
