Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Much of Rogers's research used the Q-sort technique, a procedure developed by William Stephenson (1953). Applying the correlational method, Rogers used Q-sort responses to determine how closely a client's self-image or perceived self corresponded to the ideal self.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Rogers was enthusiastic about research on the nature of the therapy sessions, an idea resisted by many clinicians who saw it as a violation of privacy. What Rogers did was to introduce what was then a radical procedure. He recorded and filmed therapy sessions to enable researchers to study the clienttherapist interaction.
