Answer to Question 1

B
Behavioral theorists see personality disorders as the result of conditioned responses caused by previous events. Social stressors refer to sociocultural theories; neurophysical refers to biological theories; and imbalance among the three forces of the personality describes psychoanalytical theories.

Answer to Question 2

C
Internal losses are personal and include losses that involve the self. Expected loss occurs gradually; imagined loss is perceived; and temporary loss is reversible.
