Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: The self-report inventory or test approach involves asking people to report on themselves by answering questions about their behavior and feelings in various situations. These tests include items dealing with symptoms, attitudes, interests, fears, and values.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
