Answer to Question 1

Included in responses should be differentiation of the three schools of thought. Psychoanalytic
psychologists will stress underlying motivation, possible psychosexual explanations, and Dina's
psychosocial stage; behaviorists will concentrate on her specific behaviors and ways to reinforce
changes in it; cognitive psychologists will consider her thinking and her developmental stage.

Answer to Question 2

Answers should describe the person's original way(s) of thinking, the use of assimilation, or, more
likely, accommodation, to deal with the new experience that put the thinking into disequilibrium, and
the establishment of equilibrium after the change.
