Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: On average, one not two suicides a day occur in the U.S. military. From 2005 to 2009, relationship distress factored in more than 50 not 25 of Army suicides. Military suicides are associated with the diagnoses of substance use disorder, major depressive disorder, PTSD, and TBI, not narcissistic personality disorder. Statistically, in 2012, suicide rates of service members surpassed the number killed in combat.

Answer to Question 2

C
The superego contains the thou shalts, or moral standards internalized from interactions with significant others. Praise fosters internalization of desirable behaviors. The id is the center of basic instinctual drives, and the ego is the mediator. The ego is the problem-solving and reality-testing portion of the personality that negotiates solutions with the outside world. The preconscious is a level of awareness from which material can be retrieved easily with conscious effort.
