Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Erikson divided the growth of the personality into eight psychosocial stages of development. To Erikson, eight successive stages encompass the life span. At each stage, we must cope with a crisis in either an adaptive or a maladaptive way.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: In his observations of American Indians in South Dakota and in California, Erikson noted certain psychological symptoms that appeared to be related to a sense of alienation from cultural traditions and resulted in the lack of a clear self-image or self-identity. This phenomenon, which Erikson initially called identity confusion, was similar to the condition he had observed among emotionally disturbed veterans after World War II.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
