Answer 1

Answer:

Psychological hardiness is characterized by all of the following except C. an unyielding sense of self.

Explanation:

Psychological hardiness refers to a group of attitudes and behaviors the individual has which helps him/her deal with and withstand stress.

It has 3 components or C's:

• Challenge
• Control
• Commitment

As the example states, it is a belief that change is an opportunity for personal growth, a commitment to pursue life goals and it involves a lot of internal control.

The unyielding sense of self is not a characteristic trait of this concept.
