Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Range of convenience is the spectrum of events to which a construct can be applied. Some constructs are relevant to a limited number of people or situations; other constructs are broader.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: The popular tendency to opt for the secure, low-risk alternative may explain why some people persist in behaving in an unrewarding way. Hostile people do not know how others will react to friendliness because they have rarely tried it.
