I DID DO IT BUT GOT THE WRONG ANSWERS.. HAVE TO DO AGAIN FOR 1/2 CREDIT.

We do not do your work for you. Have you consulted your textbook? Just in case your text does have the info...

I searched Google under the key words "psychological theories personality" to get this:

http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=psychological+theories+personality&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.

I hope this helps.

All of these answers can be found in chapter 2 of the textbook (or electronic material found under the materials tab in the OLS.) You can find most of the sentences A - N in the introductions, and Healthy Personalities section. The sentences are worded almost exactly as they appear in the book.

The assignment is easy. Reread your chapter assignment. Everything you need to know to get full credit is there. I cannot give you the answer because it would be plagarism as indicated in the Axia website. This site will give you information that is helpful for us when doing our assignments. Jiskha is not allowed to to the work for us.
