PART II Item number 1 Answer: A. factor analysis Rationalization: Researchers studying personality traits in the present agree with five major dimensions of personality and this is a result of the factor analysis which many researchers took to answer the best measurement test of personality. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 383 paragraph 5 and page 406 Category: Easy Item number 2 Answer: D. 1980’s Rationalization: It was only until the 1980's when the case of psychologists having no common list or dimension of personality traits ended. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 383, paragraph 3 Category: Easy Item number 3 Answer: C. Hostility Rationalization: Each dimension of personality reiterates more indication of such traits. Neuroticism as a negative anxious emotional state disposes such negative indications- anxiety, hysteria, obsessive-compulsive disorders, or criminality in high scores. However, hostility covers for low scores on agreeableness which is a trait involving cooperation (high) or manipulation (low). Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 406, 3rd line Category: Easy Item number 4 Answer: B. NEO-PI-R Rationalization: NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R) is a personality inventory that examines a person's Big Five personality traits that is defined as showing a degree of long-term stability subjective to such specific age.

Item number 5 Answer: C. Gordon Allport Rationalization: While contemporary theorists agree that there are five personality domains, no more and no less, the beliefs of earlier theorists differ and one of then is Gordon Allport who began developing his theory through a dictionary, compiling every term found relating to personality traits. With thousands of initial lists of traits down to hundred, he categorized them claiming that there are 5-10 traits in central disposition. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Pages 383-384, paragraph 5 Category: Easy Item number 6 Answer: D. many earlier personality psychologists focus on traits as their study although they look on no particular dimension Rationalization: Early personality psychologists before the five major dimensions of personality came up had their own particular list of personality traits they focused on to explain a person’s behavior but there was little general agreement as to what the major dimensions of personality were. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 283 paragraph 3 Category: Average Item number 7 Answer: C. product of factor analytic techniques Rationalization: The factor analytic approach was used by researchers to determine the major dimensions of personality from varying lists of traits. As imposed from the text, in the present, most researchers who study personality traits agree that five, dominant traits continue to emerge from factor analytic techniques, no less and no additional. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 384 paragraph 4 Category: Average Item number 8 Answer: E. conscious versus unconscious determinants of behavior Rationalization: One of the views on humanity of McCrae and Costa’s theory asserted that people are able to evaluate their performance and to render reasonably reliable reports concerning their attitudes, temperament, needs, interests, and behaviors, an ability that is more than consciousness but indicates self-consciousness. 77

Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 405 paragraph 2 Category: Average Item number 9 Answer: D. Both A and B Rationalization: It is according to the text that the traits under the Five-Factor Theory may differ in terms to many researchers who have different cultural perspectives and background, the whole concept is still similar. The answer can also be supported by one of the theory’s views on humanity about individual differences over similarities. Five- Factor Theory does not accommodate how similar people may be but rather their traits that make them unique. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 384 paragraph 1 and page 405 paragraph 4 Category: Average Item number 10 Answer: B. ‘How can personality best be measured?’ and ‘How many traits or personal dispositions does a single person possess?’ Rationalization: There are many assessments, which majorly revolve around determining the best way to measure personality and the common number of traits a person has, that several research individuals and teams did during the past 25 to 45 years. By factor analytic approach, the contemporary theorists came up with five major dimensions of personality. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 383 paragraph 4 Category: Average Item number 11 Answer: C. In a way, yes, however there are still many different ways that one would describe or profile someone Rationalization: Traits tell an individual’s personality. However, this theory is only one way, given that it encompasses major dimensions such as openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism, there is also so much that other theories of personality can say since describing a person can be broad. From the context that traits are the focus of study of many personality psychologists but different psychologists in the history had their own particular list of personality traits, we can connote that there are varying views on how to describe a person but they are not told to be invalid.

Item number 12 Answer: C. Social psychologists Rationalization: There is a difference between explaining the behavior of a person by a situation and by enduring traits. By a situation is what social psychologists are likely to explain but by enduring traits is what personality psychologists are likely to explain on the other hand. Trait to define, is indeed a person’s distinguishing characteristic that built up his personality. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 383 paragraph 3 Category: Difficult Item number 13 Answer: D. Trait theory Rationalization: Trait theory explains that a person’s behavior lies on consistency in different situations over time and only not on a single situation, like in the given case, Anne’s current situation is that she is stressed and sleep- deprived causing her to exclusively behave that way. But in other situations that show her average behavior and actions, this refers to her traits explaining her personality. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 405 paragraph 2 Category: Difficult Item number 14 Answer: D. I will side on both of them Rationalization: Personality trait theorists, like McCrae and Costa, place equal emphasis on biological and environmental influences on personality. In the dimensions of biological versus social influences on personality, they believe that traits and factors are both inherited and have strong genetic and biological components but they also believe that environment plays a crucial role in shaping a person’s dispositions. Reference: Feist, Feist, and Roberts (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 405 paragraph 4 Category: Difficult Item number 15 Answer: B. conscious versus unconscious determinants of behavior Rationalization: More than consciousness, trait and factor theory places emphasis on self-consciousness which is one of the high abilities of humans. Humans are capable of evaluating their performance and rendering reasonably reliable reports concerning their attitudes, temperament, needs, interests, and behaviors. Thus, Kate imposes self- consciousness for the fact that she perceives real information about herself, therefore her personality which is different from what her peers perceive of her. 79

Eysenck Personality Inventory Rationalization: Eysenck developed Eysenck personality inventory that has a lie scale which detects faking measures extraversion and neuroticism separately. Reference: Feist, Feist, Roberts. (2018). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 421, paragraph 3 Category: Difficult Item Number 30 Answer: B. P, E and N affects social behavior and was affected by biological intermediaries.

McGraw-Hill Education, 2 Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10121. Page 422, paragraph 1 Category: Difficult Item number 31 Answer: B. Psychoticism 83

Rationalization: Psychoticism is actually part of eysenck's 3-part theory of personality. It is a personality type that is prone to take risks, might engage in antisocial behaviors, impulsiveness, or non-conformist behavior. The latest and weakest of eysenck's personality factors is psychoticism / superego. High psychotic symptoms indicate anxiety, hysteria, and egocentrism. Both normal and abnormal individuals may score high on the neuroticism scale. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 456 paragraph 4 Category: Easy Item number 32 Answer: D. Conscientiousness versus assertiveness Rationalization: Eysenck noted that the dimensions of extraversion and neuroticism have been recognized as basic elements of personality since the time of the ancient greek philosopher. The result of their efforts is a personality theory based on three dimensions as super factors. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 278 paragraph 6 Category: Easy Item number 33 Answer: A. Openness Rationalization: For instance, in a direct comparison of their model with eysenck's inventory, costa and mccrae reported that eysenck's first two factors (n and e) are completely consistent with their first two factors. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 389 paragraph 3 Category: Easy Item number 34 Answer: A. Neuroticism and psychoticism Rationalization: Neuroticism refers to a mild mental disorder characterised by physical and mental disturbance. Certain mental and physical disturbances and inner struggles characterize neurosis. Psychoticism, on the other hand, is a major personality disorder marked by mental and emotional disruptions. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 415 paragraph 1-5 Category: Easy Item number 35 Answer: C. Neuroticism and extraversion 84

Rationalization: After several years of alluding to psychoticism (p) as an independent personality factor, eysenck finally elevated it to a position equal to e and n. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 419 paragraph 1 Category: Easy Item number 36 Answer: D. All of the above Rationalization: Recall that eysenck's theory assumes that extraversion is a product of low cortical arousability. Therefore, introverts, compared with extraverts, should be more sensitive to a variety of stimuli and learning conditions. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 422 paragraph 2 Category: Average Item number 37 Answer: C. Heritability Rationalization: With these assumptions in mind, eysenck listed four criteria for identifying a factor. First, psychometric evidence for the factor’s existence must be established. A second criterion is that the factor must also possess heritability and must fit an established genetic model. Third, the factor must make sense from a theoretical view. The final criterion for the existence of a factor is that it must possess social relevance. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 414 paragraph 1-4 Category: Average Item number 38 Answer: B. Overview of factor and trait theory Rationalization: Eysenck proposed a theory of personality based on biological factors, arguing that individuals inherit a type of nervous system that affects their ability to learn and adapt to the environment. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 439 paragraph 2-3 Category: Average Item number 39 Answer: B. Eysenck's factor theory 85

Rationalization: Eysenck's theory of personality focused on temperaments, which he believed were largely controlled by genetic influences. He utilized a statistical technique known as factor analysis to identify what he believed were the two primary dimensions of personality: Extraversion and neuroticism. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 440 paragraph 5 Category: Average Item number 40 Answer: D. Criteria for identifying factors Rationalization: Eysenck's theory of personality focused on temperaments, which he believed were largely controlled by genetic influences. He utilized a statistical technique known as factor analysis to identify what he believed were the two primary dimensions of personality: Extraversion and neuroticism. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 450 paragraph 4 Category: Average Item number 41 Answer: A. People high on psychoticism. Both normal and abnormal individuals may score high on the neuroticism scale. Rationalization: A high score in neuroticism can mean you: Often feel vulnerable or insecure. Get stressed easily. Struggle with difficult situations. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 498 paragraph 1-3 Category: Difficult Item number 42 Answer: C. High on biological influences and the uniqueness of individuals. Low on social factors. Average unconscious versus unconscious influences. The concept of free choice, optimism versus pessimism, and causality versus teleology are not clearly addressed. Rationalization: Eysenck assumed that personality springs from genetic and neurophysiological bases. If this assumption has validity, neurophysiological differences should exist between people high on one end of a dimension (for instance, introversion) and those high on the other end of that dimension (extraverts). Second, the basic personality dimensions should be universal and not limited to a given culture. Another of eysenck's hypotheses that has generated some research is optimal level of arousal. Eysenck theorized that introverts should work best with lower levels of sensory stimulation and extraverts with higher levels. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018).

Category: Difficult Item number 43 Answer: C. Epq Rationalization: The eysenck personality questionnaire (epq) is a questionnaire to assess the personality traits of a person. In devising a temperament-based theory, eysenck did not exclude the possibility that some aspects of personality are learned, but left the consideration of these to other researchers. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 421 paragraph 1-2 Category: Difficult Item number 44 Answer: B. Eysenck's complex model of personality Rationalization: Eysenck's theory argues strongly that biological predispositions towards certain personality traits combined with conditioning and socialization during childhood in order to create our personality. This interactionist approach may, therefore, be much more valid than either a biological or environmental theory alone. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality, 9th ed (9).: Mcgraw-hill international editions. Page 422 paragraph 3-4 Category: Difficult Item number 45 Answer: C. Neurophysiology Rationalization: The brain regions showing this association include a number of cortical regions implicated in emotion regulation, depression and anxiety, in addition to many sub-cortical/limbic regions. Currently, there are few studies directly assessing the relationship between extraversion and the cortical arousal system in the context of varying stimulations but data available so far are remarkably consistent with eysenck's model. Future neuroimaging studies guided by relevant personality and cognitive theories, and with sufficient power to allow application of sophisticated analysis methods (for example, machine learning) are now needed to improve our understanding of the biological basis of individual differences and its application in the promotion of well-being and mental health.

Item number 46 Answer: D. L-data. Rationalization: In Cattell’s objective measurements of personality, the L-data technique involves observers’ ratings of specific behaviors exhibited by people in real-life settings such as a classroom or office. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 274- 275, paragraph 1 Category: Easy Item number 47 Answer: B. Q-data Rationalization: The Q-data technique, in Cattell’s objective measurements of personality, relies on questionnaires. Whereas L-data calls for observers to rate the research subjects, Q-data requires subjects to rate themselves. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 274- 275, paragraph 2 Category: Easy Item number 48 Answer: C. 16 PF Test Rationalization: Cattell developed several personality tests but the most notable among all of them is the 16PF. This test is intended for use with people 16 years of age and older and yields scores on each of the 16 scales. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 275- 276, paragraph 1 Category: Easy Item number 49 Answer: A. T-data Rationalization: According to Cattell, T-data technique involves the use of “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. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 274- 275, paragraph 1 Category: Easy 88

Item number 50 Answer: C. 3 Rationalization: In Cattell’s objective measurements of personality used three primary assessment techniques, which he called L-data (life records), Q-data (questionnaires), and T-data (tests). Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 274- 275, paragraph 1 Category: Easy Item number 51 Answer: A. The first statement is incorrect while the second statement is correct. Rationalization: Cattell’s definition of personality gives us clues about his view of human nature. He wrote, “Personality is that which permits a prediction of what a person will do in a given situation” (Cattell, 1950, p. 2). For behavior to be considered predictable, it must be lawful and orderly. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 273, paragraph 1 Category: Average Item number 52 Answer: C. Common traits Rationalization: On the uniqueness-universality issue, Cattell took a moderate position, noting the existence of common traits, which apply to everyone in a culture, and unique traits, which describe the individual. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 273, paragraph 3 Category: Average Item number 53 Answer: A. He predicted we would gain greater awareness of and control over our environment. Rationalization: Cattell’s personal view of human nature is clearer. In his younger years, he was optimistic about our ability to solve social problems. He predicted we would gain greater awareness of and control over our environment. He expected to see the level of intelligence rise, along with the development of “a more gracious community life of creatively occupied citizens”. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 273, paragraph 4 Category: Average 89

Item number 54 Answer: D. None of the above. Rationalization: For behavior to be considered predictable, Cattell believed that it must be lawful and orderly. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 273, paragraph 1 Category: Average Item number 55 Answer: A. Society Rationalization: Reality did not live up to his expectations, and eventually he came to believe that human nature and society had regressed. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 273, paragraph 4 Category: Average Item number 56 Answer: B. L-data. Rationalization: James used the L-data technique to observe the frequent absence of his student Carl. The L-data technique involves observers’ ratings of specific behaviors exhibited by people in real-life settings such as a classroom or office. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 274- 275, paragraph 1 Category: Difficult Item number 57 Answer: A. The first statement is correct while the second statement is incorrect. Rationalization: Cattell’s view of human nature admits little spontaneity because that would make predictability more difficult. On the free will versus determinism issue, Cattell falls more on the side of determinism. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 273- 274, paragraph 1 Category: Difficult Item number 58 Answer: D. Q-data. 90

Rationalization: The Q-data technique is a self-report questionnaire rating of our characteristics, attitudes and interests. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 274- 275, paragraph 2 Category: Difficult Item number 59 Answer: E. T-data. Rationalization: T-data technique involves the use of “objective” tests, in which a person responds without knowing what aspect of behavior is being evaluated. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 274- 275, paragraph 3 Category: Difficult Item number 60 Answer: D. The first statement is incorrect while the second statement is correct. Rationalization: According to Cattell, the Rorschach, Thematic Apperception Test, and the word association test are considered to be objective because they are resistant to faking. Reference: Schultz, Schultz. (2009). Theories of Personality Ninth Edition. Wadsworth Cengage Learning. Page 274- 275, paragraph 4 Category: Difficult Item number 61 Answer: B. Extraversion, neuroticism and psychoticism Rationalization: According to eysenck theory, the three (3) dimensions of personality are extraversion, neuroticism and psychoticism. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality ninth edition. Mcgraw-hill Education, 2 penn plaza, new york, ny 10121. Page 415, paragraph 2 Category: Easy Item number 62 Answer: E. Biological and genetic in nature Rationalization: According to eysenck (1982), however, the principal differences between extraversion and introversion are not behavioral, but rather biological and genetic in nature. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality ninth edition. Mcgraw-hill Education, 2 penn plaza, new york, ny 10121. Page 417, paragraph 2 91

Category: Easy Item number 63 Answer: C. Strong behavioral base exists Rationalization: Eysenck contended that each of these factors meets his four criteria for identifying personality dimensions. First, strong psychometric evidence exists for each, especially factors e and n. Second, eysenck (1994a, 1994b) argued that a strong biological base exists for each of his three superfactors. Third, eysenck’s three personality dimensions make sense theoretically. Fourth, eysenck repeatedly demonstrated that his three factors relate to such social issues. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality ninth edition. Mcgraw-hill Education, 2 penn plaza, new york, ny 10121. Page 417, paragraph 1-5 Category: Easy Item number 64 Answer: D. Cortical arousal level Rationalization: Eysenck (1997a) believed that the primary cause of differences between extraverts and introverts is one of cortical arousal level, a physiological condition that is largely inherited rather than learned. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality ninth edition. Mcgraw-hill Education, 2 penn plaza, new york, ny 10121. Page 417, paragraph 3 Category: Easy Item number 65 Answer: C. Pessimistic Rationalization: Introverts are characterized by traits opposite those of extraverts. They can be described as quiet, passive, unsociable, careful, reserved, thoughtful, pessimistic, peaceful, sober, and controlled. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality ninth edition. Mcgraw-hill Education, 2 penn plaza, new york, ny 10121. Page 417, paragraph 2 Category: Easy Item number 66 Answer: E. Have higher sensory thresholds Rationalization: Because extraverts have a lower level of cortical arousal than do introverts, they have higher sensory thresholds and thus lesser reactions to sensory stimulation. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality ninth edition. Mcgraw-hill Education, 2 penn plaza, new york, ny 10121. Page 417- 418, paragraph 3 Category: Average 92

Item number 67 Answer: A. Introverts have higher levels of cortical arousal while extroverts have lower levels of cortical arousal. Rationalization: Introverts have higher level of arousal, and as a result of a lower sensory threshold, they experience greater reactions to sensory stimulation while extraverts have a habitually low level of cortical arousal where they need a high level of sensory, stimulation to maintain an optimal level of stimulation. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality ninth edition. Mcgraw-hill Education, 2 penn plaza, new york, ny 10121. Page 418, paragraph 3-4 Category: Average Item number 68 Answer: B. Avoid situations that will cause too much excitement Rationalization: To maintain an optimal level of stimulation, introverts, with their congenitally low sensory threshold, avoid situations that will cause too much excitement. Hence, introverts shun such activities as wild social events, downhill skiing, skydiving, competitive sports, leading a fraternity or sorority, or playing practical jokes. Reference: Feist, feist (2009). Theories of personality seventh edition. The mcgraw-hill Company, page 412, paragraph 3 Category: Average Item number 69 Answer: D. They become bored and uninterested Rationalization: Because extraverts have a lower level of cortical arousal, however, they become more quickly accustomed to strong stimuli (sexual or otherwise) and respond less and less to the same stimuli, whereas introverts are less likely to become bored and uninterested in routine activities carried on with the same people. Reference: Feist, feist (2009). Theories of personality seventh edition. The mcgraw-hill Company, page 412, paragraph 4. Category: Average Item number 70 Answer: C. Introverts - pessimistic; extroverts - optimistic Rationalization: Extraverts are characterized primarily by sociability and impulsiveness but also by jocularity, liveliness, quick-wittedness, optimism, and other traits indicative of people who are rewarded for their association with others (eysenck & eysenck, 1969). Introverts are characterized by traits opposite those of extraverts. They can be described as quiet, passive, unsociable, careful, reserved, thoughtful, pessimistic, peaceful, sober, and controlled. Reference: Feist, feist (2009). Theories of personality seventh edition. The mcgraw-hill Company, page 411, paragraph 1-2 93

Category: Average Item number 71 Answer: D. Joshua went to a pool party with his friends. Rationalization: Extraverts are characterized primarily by sociability and impulsiveness but also by jocularity, liveliness, quick-wittedness, optimism, and other traits indicative of people who are rewarded for their association with others (eysenck & eysenck, 1969). Reference: Feist, feist (2009). Theories of personality seventh edition. The mcgraw-hill Company, page 411, paragraph 1 Category: Difficult Item number 72 Answer: A. Neuroticism and extraversion are not limited to pathological individuals, although disturbed people tend to have higher scores than a normal person on a scale measuring these factors. Rationalization: Neuroticism and psychoticism are not limited to pathological individuals, although disturbed people tend to score higher than normal people on scales measuring these two factors. Reference: Feist, feist (2009). Theories of personality seventh edition. The mcgraw-hill Company, page 410, paragraph 3. Category: Difficult Item number 73 Answer: C. People who score high in extraversion tend to be dominant, assertive and impulsive. Rationalization: Extraverts are oriented toward the outside world, prefer the company of other people, and tend to be sociable, impulsive, adventurous, assertive, and dominant. Reference: Schultz,Schultz. (2009). Theories of personality ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning, 10 Davis Drive,Belmont, ca 94002-3098, usa. Page 280, paragraph 1 Category: Difficult Item number 74 Answer: Enjoying a cup of coffee at home instead of going out with friends. Rationalization: Extraverts are oriented toward the outside world, prefer the company of other people, and tend to be sociable, impulsive, adventurous, assertive, and dominant.

Item number 75 Answer: E. Because introverts are quiet while extroverts are very lively. Rationalization: Neuroticism and psychoticism are not limited to pathological individuals, although disturbed people tend to score higher than normal people on scales measuring these two factors. Reference: Feist, feist (2009). Theories of personality seventh edition. The mcgraw-hill Company, page 410, paragraph 3. Category: Difficult Item number 76 Answer: A. Hodge podge Rationalization: He described the big five as a “hodge-podge” Of factors and superfactors. Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 295, paragraph 3 Category: Easy Item number 77 Answer: C. Genetic determinants Rationalization: Eysenck believed that individual differences in the three major superfactors are primarily due to genetic determinants. Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 294, paragraph 3 Category: Easy Item number 78 Answer: D. Intelligence Rationalization: A final superfactor that eysenck believed plays a major role in personality is intelligence. Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 303, paragraph 5 Category: Easy Item number 79 Answer: B. Biosocial Rationalization: Eysenck advocated a biosocial approach in which he emphasizes biological and genetic factors as well as social and environmental ones. 95

Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 288, paragraph 1 Category: Easy Item number 80 Answer: A. Evoked potential Rationalization: Eysenck believed that the physiological mechanism for intelligence is related to evoked potential. Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 304, paragraph 6 Category: Easy Item number 81 Answer: A. Cattell focused on traits while eysenck focused on supertraits. Rationalization: Cattell’s theory was primarily concerned with traits whereas eysenck preferred to emphasize supertraits. Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 295, paragraph 2 Category: Average Item number 82 Answer: D. Proximal and distal consequences Rationalization: Eysenck argued that an effective theory of personality should predict both proximal and distal consequences. Reference: Feist, feist, roberts. (2018). Theories of personality ninth edition. Mcgraw-hill education, 2 penn plaza, new york, ny 10121. Page 422, paragraph 3 Category: Average Item number 83 Answer: A. Serotonin Rationalization: Schizophrenics and people who score high on psychoticism have lower levels of serotonin, a chemical neurotransmitter in the brain. Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 300, paragraph 3 Category: Average 96

Item number 84 Answer: B. A more or less stable and enduring organization of a person’s character, temperament, intellect, and physique. Rationalization: Eysenck defined personality as “a more or less stable and enduring organization of a person’s character, temperament, intellect, and physique which determines his unique adjustment to the environment”. Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 292, paragraph 3 Category: Average Item number 85 Answer: A. Orthogonal Rationalization: Cattell’s sixteen personality factors are oblique, which is to say that the various factors may also correlate with each other, whereas eysenck’s superfactors are orthogonal, or without further correlations. Reference: Engler. (2014). Personalities theories ninth edition. Wadsworth, cengage learning. Page 295, paragraph 3 Category: Average Item number 86 Answer: A. Psychoticism Rationalization: Eysenck hypothesized that psychoticism (p) is related to genius and creativity. Children with the same creative potential who are also high in psychoticism (p) are able to resist the criticisms of parents and teachers and to emerge as creative adults.
