Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The newborn is exhibiting the Babinski reflex, one of the normal primitive reflexes that should disappear by 9 months of age. Documentation is all that is required.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
In stage 0undifferentiated (infancy)the infant is learning a fund of basic trust and the relational experience of mutuality with the one(s) providing primary love and care. In stage 1intuitive-projective (ages 2 to 6 or 7)beliefs and faith are unquestioning. It is a time of fantasy and magical thinking. In stage 2mythical-literal (ages 6 to 11)the child retells the spiritual stories and takes them literally and concretely. In stage 3synthetic-convention (typically begins around 12 or 13 years)the young person begins to personalize beliefs.
