In principle of equivalence, Jung argued that:
a.
the greater the conflict between the opposing processes or tendencies in a personality, the greater will be the psychic energy produced.
c.
psychic energy is continually redistributed
within a personality.
b.
only one among a pair of psychological functions is dominant, as even the functions in a pair are opposing.
d.
there is a tendency toward maintaining a balance or equilibrium in a personality.
ANS: C
FEEDBACK: For his principle of equivalence, Jung applied the physical principle of the conservation of energy to psychic events. He stated that energy expended in bringing about some condition is not lost but rather is shifted to another part of the personality. The principle of equivalence dictates that energy is continually redistributed within the personality.
