c. that a self-psychology approach would regard Mr. Z's grandiosity as stemming from unmet needs, while psychoanalysis emphasizes intrapsychic conflicts organized around the Oedipal process.
d. that classical psychoanalysis would interpret Mr. Z's arrogance in light of a persistent merger with an idealized mother, while self-psychology would be concerned with the unmet needs of the autonomous self.
