Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Freud believed that personality was shaped and fixed by the age of 5 and that it was difficult after that to change any aspect of it. While it does seem clear that the childhood years are indeed crucial to personality formation, research also indicates that personality continues to develop well beyond childhood, perhaps throughout the entire life span.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Researchers who subscribe to the primacy of genetic factors in personality tend to reject or minimize the parental effect, suggesting that the family environment contributes little to personality. However, one question remains: Is personality fixed in early life by influences such as parents, peers, and genes or can it be changed in later years?
