Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
According to Erikson, failure to master academic and social pursuits leads to inferiority and hin-ders attempts to try new things. Option 1 is associated with failure to develop will power. Option 2 is associated with failure to develop purpose. Option 3 is associated with failure to develop fi-delity.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
According to Sullivan, the expected development of the preadolescent permits him or her to work with peers toward a common goal and to develop a sense of oneness. Option 2 is not in-dicated as part of any interpersonal theory of development. Option 3 develops in late adoles-cence. Option 4 is suggested as a developmental issue of 12- to 18-year-olds in Erikson's model.
