Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: The T-data technique involves the use of what Cattell called objective tests, in which a person responds without knowing what aspect of behavior is being evaluated. These tests circumvent the Q-data's shortcomings by making it difficult for a subject to know precisely what a test is measuring.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: The Q-data technique relies on questionnaires. Whereas the L-data technique calls for observers to rate the subjects, the Q-data technique requires them to rate themselves.
