Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: There is a similarity between the extraversion and neuroticism factors of McCrae and
Costa and the extraversion and neuroticism dimensions proposed by Eysenck. Further, agreeableness and conscientiousness in the McCrae Costa model may represent the low end of Eysencks psychoticism dimension (impulse control). Openness shows a high positive correlation with intelligence. Similarly, agreeableness correlates with Adlers concept of social interest.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Working at the Gerontology Research Center of the National Institutes of Health in Baltimore, Maryland, Robert McCrae and Paul Costa embarked on an extensive research program that identified five so-called robust or Big Five factors. These factors are neuroticism, extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness.
