Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Rogers taught at the University of Wisconsin from 1957 to 1963. His clinical experience while in academia was mostly with college students in the counseling centers. Thus, the kind of persons he treated during that time were people who were young, intelligent, highly verbal, and, in general, facing adjustment problems rather than severe emotional disorders.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: During his trip to China, Rogers came to recognize the importance of an autonomous self as a factor in his own development. His early research reinforced the importance of the self in the formation of the personality.
