Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: The idea that we are free to revise or replace our constructs with alternatives as needed is known as constructive alternativism. If our constructs were inflexible and incapable of being revised (which is what would happen if personality was totally determined by childhood influences), then we would not be able to cope with new situations.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Revising our constructs is a necessary and continuous process; we must always have an alternative construct to apply to a situation. If our constructs were inflexible and incapable of being revised (which is what would happen if personality was totally determined by childhood influences), then we would not be able to cope with new situations.
