The correct answers are; 1) a, psychological. 2) b, obsessive. 3) a, dis-associative identity (not necessarily a disorder). %26amp; 4) b, cognitive.Can someone please check my psychology questions?
I believe #3 is C not A. Other then that it looks good.



EDIT: I am pretty sure #3 is indeed C or FugueCan someone please check my psychology questions?
A I think because claustrophobia is a psychological term. If it said genes then I would go with biological B because it is a thought. I think a compulsion would be some kind of behavior or act. A because it is an identity yet how about forgetting being amnesia? B because the emphasis thoughts (cognition) which leads to behavior or actions. Now that I have not studied will you please check it out thoroughly as I don't know for sure what the right answers are. Maybe the online encylopedia Wykopedia or however it is spelled would help.
