(Answer to Q. 1)  ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Kelly's fixed role therapy is a psychotherapeutic technique in which clients act out constructs appropriate for a fictitious person. The therapist expects the client to discover that the new constructs in the fixed role sketch work better in anticipating events than do the old constructs by which the client was living.

(Answer to Q. 2)  ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Kelly promoted a form of psychotherapy he called fixed role therapy. To help clients formulate new constructs and discard old ones, he asked them to write a self-characterization sketch describing them as the lead character in a play.

(Answer to Q. 3)  ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Kelly did not intend the test to be a standardized, objective self-report inventory. He designed it as a way to assess constructs as a necessary stage in psychotherapy, to induce clients to reveal the constructs by which they organize their world.

(Answer to Q. 4)  ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Kelly devised the Role Construct Repertory (REP) Test to uncover the constructs we apply to the important people in our lives. Kelly did not intend the test to be a standardized, objective self-report inventory.

(Answer to Q. 5)  ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Kelly found self-characterization sketch useful for learning how clients perceive themselves in relation to other people. Kelly's instructions to his clients were as follows. I want you to write a character sketch of client's name just as if he were the principal character in a play. Write it as it might be written by a friend who knew him very intimately and very sympathetically, perhaps better than anyone ever really could know him.

(Answer to Q. 6)  ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Kelly recognized that a person might deliberately lie or distort the reported version of events. However, what the client said must be respected, even if not always fully believed.
