Answer 1

a. The word "interactivity" should be changed to the word "reactivity."

Step-by-step explanation:

Temperament is a person's nature or behavior. It is way people behave or exhibit. If a person is is clam and does not get angry easily, he is said to have a calm temperament.

And self regulation is the way people tend to behave or control one's nature accordingly. This two are the most influencing dimensions in the temperament of a human being.
