Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

Scenario is a manifestation of the life-span construct through expectations about the future. One example is planning to complete a doctoral program in psychology. Social clock is tagging future events with a particular time or age by which they are to be completed. One example is planning to be a licensed psychologist within two years after graduating from a doctoral program. A life story is a personal narrative that organizes past events into a coherent sequence. A life story may start with me describing how I chose and applied to doctoral programs, how I decided where to attend, and how I arrived at my new school. Possible selves represent what we could become, what we would like to become, and what we are afraid of becoming. Some examples include professional psychologist, competitive rock climber, and collaborative partner in marriage.
