Explanation / Answer

80.Projection is an unconscious process that protects people from the anxiety they would feel if they were to discern their faults. Thus, persons exhibiting this defense mechanism tend to see their faults in others rather than in themselves. 81.The term character refers to favorable and unfavorable personal characteristics. 82.Reading a book on history to increase your knowledge would be considered intrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation refers to behavior that is driven by internal rewards. In other words, the motivation to engage in a behavior arises from within the individual because it is naturally satisfying to you. 83.Emotion focused coping is best suited to managing stressors you cannot control. While many stressors elicit both kinds of coping strategies, problem-focused coping is more likely to occur when encountering stressors we perceive as controllable, while emotion-focused coping is more likely to predominate when faced with stressors that we believe we are powerless to change (Folkman & Lazarus, 1980). Clearly, emotion-focused coping is more effective in dealing with uncontrollable stressors. For example, if at midnight you are stressing over a 40-page paper due in the morning that you have not yet started, you are probably better off recognizing the hopelessness of the situation and doing something to take your mind off it; taking a problem-focused approach by trying to accomplish this task would only lead to frustration, anxiety, and even more stress. 86.A person’s perception of his or her own personality is the core of self concept.
