Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has consistently found that females tend to disclose more personal information than males, both in terms of the amount and depth of information shared.

Answer: B 
 While females may disclose more overall, males tend to disclose more about intimate topics, such as sex, especially in same-sex interactions.

Answer: D 
 While some research has shown that females may have greater psychological defenses in certain situations, this conclusion is not universally accepted or supported by all studies. There is also evidence that males may use different defense mechanisms, such as denial or distraction, to manage emotional reactions.

Therefore, the best choices are A and B as they are based on well-established findings from a large body of research. Option C is incorrect, as a person's self-disclosure history can play a significant role in how much and what is shared during counseling sessions, and D is not entirely accurate or universally applicable.
