Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Unlike the emotionally maladjusted patients in a psychiatric ward or a psychoanalyst's office, Kelly's clients were much more capable of discussing their concerns rationally, of expressing their problems in intellectual terms, the level of functioning expected in an academic setting. Had circumstances placed Kelly during his formative professional years at work with schizophrenics in a mental institution, his theory might not have depended so heavily on cognitive information-processing abilities.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Kelly's patients were students who had been referred by their teachers for counseling. The people he treated were not severely disturbed psychotics in mental hospitals or neurotics with troublesome emotional problems.
