Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

Role transition is a process by which a person assumes or develops a new role. Norms are the general expectations that support role behaviors, and validating these norms is essential to role development. Cognitive dissonance is a situation in which what a person knows intellectually does not match experience. The role incumbent is the person who is assuming a role.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Faculty has multiple assignments and responsibilities. The best way to assure that the faculty member is prepared to help the student is for the student to call for an appointment. Although it might be more convenient for the student to catch the faculty member after a lecture or during lunch, the faculty member is likely not to be focused on the student's needs at those times. Dropping by the faculty member's office is the second best option, but the faculty member may be engaged with another student or another responsibility, so the best use of time is to call for an appointment.
