Answer to Question 1

The decisions that adults are forced to make require them to be flexible, reflective,
and dialectical, stimulating moral growth. Students may point out that the decisionmaking
process can lead adults to deeper convictions. Examples will vary but
should demonstrate this claim.

Answer to Question 2

The possibility that one's appearance or behavior will be misused to confirm another
person's oversimplified, prejudiced attitude is referred to as stereotype threat.
Examples will vary. Answers will vary, but may include the following: (1) Women
might not get involved in technological fields because they are afraid that they will do poorly and their performance will be evidence in support of the stereotype that
women are not technologically savvy. (2) Women may come to believe the
stereotype. (3) Women may tell themselves that technological abilities are
unimportant and thus devalue these skills.
