According to psychoanalysis psychotherapy, which of the following events occurs in dreams, and their contents are related with actual dreams?

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: B

The manifest content is what occurs in the dream as it is experienced and remembered. In Freud's psychoanalysis the latent content is the hidden, symbolic meaning, so latent is the wrong choice here. Free dream and unconscious dream are not standard terms. Freud divided the content of a dream into the manifest content, the story as dreamed, and the latent content, the hidden meaning that the analyst interprets.

In which of the following techniques is a person's phobia treated by rapidly and intensively exposing him to fear-provoking situations?

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: D

Flooding is the technique in which a phobia is treated by rapid and intensive exposure to the feared situation until the anxiety fades. Systematic desensitisation exposes the person gradually, and modelling shows another person facing the fear. The first option, printed as exposer therapy, refers to exposure in general and is not the rapid, intensive form the question describes. In flooding the client stays in contact with the feared object until anxiety falls, unlike systematic desensitisation, in which the exposure is graded and combined with relaxation.

Reduced intake is the pattern of anorexia. Bulimia nervosa is marked by recurrent binge eating followed by compensatory behaviour, such as vomiting, and it differs from anorexia nervosa in that body weight can be normal.

Answer: B

Al-Anon supports the families of people with alcoholism.

Al-Anon Family Groups were founded in 1951 as a companion to Alcoholics Anonymous. They are mutual-help groups in which spouses, parents and other relatives of problem drinkers share experiences and use a twelve-step programme to cope with the effects of a family member's drinking; Alateen serves younger members.

Families of people with intellectual disability, cancer or Alzheimer's disease have their own support organisations, but Al-Anon is specifically for those affected by someone else's drinking.

An inclusive approach to education:

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2018, SET Exam - 2018,

Answer: B

An inclusive approach accommodates a diverse range of learners.

Inclusive education changes the school itself, its curriculum, teaching methods and environment, so that all children, whatever their abilities, backgrounds or disabilities, learn together in the same classroom with the support they need.

Mainstreaming and integration place children with special needs in regular classes but expect them to fit into an unchanged system, which is narrower than inclusion. A special division for special children is segregation, the opposite of inclusion.
