Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Even inherited facets of personality can be modified, disrupted, prevented, or allowed to flourish by the process of learning. Skinner taught us the value of positive reinforcement, successive approximation, superstitious behavior, and other learning variables in shaping what others call personality, but which he described as simply an accumulation of learned responses.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Evidence is overwhelming that learning plays a major role in influencing virtually every aspect of our behavior, not only personality but our major life goals as well. All of the social and environmental forces that shape personality do so by the methods of learning.
