Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: During and after her marriage, Horney had a number of love affairs. When she realized these attachments were not helping to alleviate her depression and other emotional problems, she decided to undergo psychoanalysis.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Until the age of 8, Horney was a model child, clinging and compliant. Despite her efforts, however, she did not think she was getting sufficient love and security. Her self-sacrifice and good behavior were not working, so she changed tactics and deliberately became ambitious and rebellious, deciding that if she could not have love and security, she would take revenge for her feelings of unattractiveness and inadequacy.
