Answer to Question 1

B
It is important for therapy to assist the client in combining the personalities into one, so that the individual is able to function and cope effectively with daily stressors. Naming the personalities might occur without thought but is not necessary. In addition, realizing when alters are about to emerge and learning how to move among personalities are not goals of treatment.

Answer to Question 2

C
Personalistic illnesses are seen as aggression or punishment directed toward a specific person. Naturalistic illnesses are caused by impersonal factors without regard for the individual. Forces that exist outside the individual cause mental illness.
