Answer to Question 1

3
Toddlers engage in temper tantrums when they learn to focus their aggression on what they believe is responsible for their anger.

Answer to Question 2

B
Fear of abandonment is a central theme for most patients with borderline personality disorder. This fear is often exacerbated when the patients experience success or growth or begin to develop relationships with others, because these changes increase anxiety and renew fears of abandonment. Research does not indicate that self-injurious behavior is genetic, nor that difficulty regulating affect is constitutional (integral to the person and unchanging) in nature. Although splitting is a frequently demonstrated defense mechanism in borderline personality disorder, projective identification is less common; neither is related to self-injurious behavior.
