Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
An 8-year-child would be in the industry versus inferiority stage of development. During this stage, the child needs to be praised (proper support) for accomplishments such as learning new skills. Developing a strong identity is part of the identity versus role confusion stage, usually occurring during puberty. During the autonomy versus shame and doubt stage, limiting choices and harsh punishment lead to feelings of shame and doubt. Providing consistent, devoted relationship to meet needs is usually a part of the trust versus mistrust stage.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Jean Piaget's theory includes four stages in sequential order: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operations, and formal operations. Intimacy versus isolation is part of Erik Erikson's psychosocial theory of development. Latency is stage 4 of Freud's five-stage psychosexual theory of development. The postconventional level of reasoning is part of Kohlberg's theory of moral development.
