Explanation:

For Question 14:

Inner-directed people are guided by their own inner values and self-reliance. The Marlboro cowboy ad emphasizes self-sufficient, rugged individualism, which aligns with inner-directed traits. Other ads rely on popularity or group appeal, which targets other-directed people.

For Question 15:

The passage explicitly states other-directed people prioritize the approval of others over personal values. The other options are specific examples or opposite traits of inner-directed people, not general traits of other-directed people.

For Question 16:

Other-directed people seek others' approval. A practicing religious member follows community norms and seeks group acceptance, fitting this type. The other options describe independent or isolated people, which are inner-directed traits.

For Question 17:

The ad claims the Equal Rights Amendment will take away women's rights to be homemakers, avoid combat, and get alimony, framing it as removing existing privileges for women.
