Answer to Question 1

A
The student is most likely in foreclosure because he will be attending the same college his father attended and plans to be a lawyer like his father. Foreclosure occurs when individuals have not thoroughly explored the possibilities of identity before making a commitment about adult status. They are closely tied to their families because to question caregiver values would be too threatening and would make them feel guilty.

Answer to Question 2
