(Answer to Q. 1)  ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Allport is often considered to be one of the first psychologists to bring humanistic values and concerns to the field. Interest in Allport's work has been revived recently as part of the current focus on personality traits, which is providing empirical support for some of his ideas.

(Answer to Q. 2)  ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Allport's theory has been well received by a number of psychologists who continue to maintain that Allport's views provide a better basis for understanding personality than the approaches of most other theorists. His approach to personality development, his emphasis on uniqueness, and his focus on the importance of goals are reflected in the work of the humanistic psychologists Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers.

(Answer to Q. 3)  ANS: D
FEEDBACK: To illustrate expressive and coping behaviors, Allport offered the example of public speaking. The speaker communicates with the audience on two levels. The formal, planned level (coping behavior) includes the lecture's content. The informal, unplanned level (expressive behavior) consists of the speaker's movements, gestures, and vocal inflections.

(Answer to Q. 4)  ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Expressive behavior is spontaneous and reflects basic aspects of the personality. In contrast to coping behavior, expressive behavior is difficult to change, has no specific purpose, and is usually displayed without our awareness.

(Answer to Q. 5)  ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Consciously planned behavior determined by the needs of a given situation and designed for a specific purpose, usually to bring about a change in one's environment, is called coping behavior. Coping behavior is easy to change and is displayed with our awareness.
