Answer to Question 1

B
Piaget believed that growth and development occurred as a result of the interrelationship between intellectual (cognitive) and emotional (affective) development. The id and the ego are part of Freud's beliefs regarding personality development. Anxiety is a vague feeling of uneasiness. Personification is a term developed by the theorist Sullivan to describe distorted images of certain relationships that occur in development of the personality.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
The client with an exaggerated sense of self-importance often brags about his special abilities, sets unrealistic goals because he feels he is capable of anything, and sets unrealistic dreams for himself for the same reason. The belief that everything in life is either right or wrong is a polarized view that is seen in clients with a negative outlook about life.
