Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Horney found that in the neurotic person, one of these three trends is dominant, whereas the other two are present to a lesser degree. In the person who is not neurotic, all three trends can be expressed as circumstances warrant.

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: In Horney's system, conflict is defined as the basic incompatibility of the three neurotic trends; this conflict is the core of neurosis. All of us, whether neurotic or normal, suffer some conflict among these basically irreconcilable modes.
