Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Projection is attributing strong conflicting feelings to another person. Splitting is seeing oth-ers and oneself as all good or all bad. Suppression is incorrect because the person avoids thinking about problem areas. Displacement, or transferring a feeling to a less threatening person, is not being used in this scenario.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Identification is wishing or trying to be like someone else. Denial is an unconscious refusal to acknowledge some reality. Humor is not being used. Splitting is viewing oneself and others as all bad or all good.
