Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: At Wisconsin, Maslow found the behavioral psychology of John B. Watson, leader of the revolution to make psychology a science of behavior. Like many people in the early 1930s, Maslow became enraptured, believing that behaviorism could solve all the world's problems.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: When Maslow's early attempts at compensation to achieve recognition and acceptance as an athlete did not succeed, he turned to books. The library became the playground of his childhood and adolescence, and reading and education marked the road out of his ghetto of poverty and loneliness.
