Answer to Question 1

Ans: A

Erikson characterized development as a series of crises. The preschooler typically must choose between initiative (seeking new experiences and learning) and guilt. Freud focuses on psychosexuality while Kohlberg prioritizes moral development. Fowler explains development through the lens of faith.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A

The preconventional level is based on external control as the child learns to conform to rules imposed by authority figures. At stage 1 (punishment and obedience orientation), the motivation for choices of action is fear of physical consequences of authority's disapproval. At stage 2 (instrumental relativist orientation), the thought of receiving a reward overcomes fear of punishment, so actions that satisfy this desire are selected. The conventional level involves identifying with significant others and conforming to their expectations.
