Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Cultural background plays an important role in behavior, including demonstrations of attachment. Infants will show attachment in a manner consistent with their culture. The nurse should note the cultural background of the observed infants. The other information may be useful, but is not as important in judging attachment as is cultural background.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
According to Piaget, children age 11 to 15 should be in the formal operational stage, in which they are able to use abstract reasoning and can consider both sides of an issue.
