Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
An 8-year-child would be in the industry versus inferiority stage of development. During this stage, the child needs to be praised for accomplishments such as learning new skills. Developing devoted relationships 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. Separation anxiety is usually a part of the trust versus mistrust stage.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Biophysical development refers to how our physical bodies grow and change. Nurses and other health care providers are able to quantify and compare the changes that occur as a newborn infant grows into adulthood against established norms to detect abnormalities. Biophysical development refers to physical growth, not cognitive development, social behaviors, or psychological development.
