Answer to Question 1

Benefits of employment in meeting generativity needs include developing and using
personal skills, mentoring, creativity, providing for a family, and contributing to the
community. With age and maturity, adults want meaningful work, not just a
paycheck. Intrinsic rewards of work are intangible, including friendship, job
satisfaction, pride, and self-esteem. Extrinsic rewards include salary, employee
benefits, and pension plans.

Answer to Question 2

Premarital factors that render divorce more likely include having divorced parents,
cohabitation before marriage, age at marriage, family opposition, previous divorce
and disparity in age, background, values and interests. Marital factors include
financial stress and unemployment, substance abuse, disparate child-rearing
practices, communication problems, little time together, emotional or physical
abuse, and unsupportive relatives.
