True

Answer to Question 2

1. Biological forces. These refer to all genetic and health-related factors. For example, is a person genetically predisposed to getting cancer? Also included in this area of development are lifestyle choices such as diet, exercise, smoking, and alcohol consumption. Race and ethnic differences are also included because some races are more predisposed for certain illnesses such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
2. Psychological forces. These refer to all cognitive, emotional, and perceptual factors. Among the aging, things such as cognitive impairment due to certain diseases, and memory loss and retention are considered.
3. Sociocultural forces. These include cultural, ethnic, societal, relational, and interpersonal factors. In this area of development, family scientists consider employment, living arrangements, marital status, parenting and grandparenting, and caregiving.
4. Lifecycle forces. All of these forces interact and combine to create a person's unique, individual developmental experiences.
