Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Researchers found that some Freudian conceptsnotably the id, ego, superego, death wish, libido, and anxietycould not be tested by the experimental method. Every effort was made to restrict the investigation to data thought to have a high degree of objectivity.
