Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Kelly believed no life event or experience could be reproduced exactly as it occurred the first time. However, some aspects of a situation will be similar to those experienced earlier, and it is on the basis of these similarities that we are able to predict or establish anticipations about how we will deal with that type of event in the future.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: With the individuality corollary, Kelly introduced the notion of individual differences. He pointed out that people differ from one another in how they perceive or interpret an event, and because people construe events differently, they thus form different constructs.
