Question 2

A form of jealousy that occurs when one suspects betrayal and has feelings of anxiety and insecurity is &#8230;&#10;A) fait accompli&#10;B) suspicious&#10;C) formative attention&#10;D) the jealous person

Accepted Answer

The term "suspicious" best describes the situation of suspecting betrayal and feeling anxious and insecure. This type of jealousy is often caused by a lack of trust in the partner and can lead to controlling behavior and relationship problems.

Question 3

A form of jealousy that occurs when betrayal is certain and the individual feels sad and angry is &#8230;&#10;A) fait accompli&#10;B) suspicious&#10;C) formative attention&#10;D) displaced

Accepted Answer

Fait accompli is a term that means "an accomplished fact." In the context of jealousy, it refers to a situation where the individual knows that betrayal has already occurred or is inevitable. This can result in feelings of sadness and anger, as the individual is powerless to prevent it. Suspicion and displaced jealousy, on the other hand, involve uncertainty and may not necessarily be associated with betrayal. Formative attention is not a term that relates to jealousy.
