Answer to Question 1

Answer: 3
Explanation: Safety and security include emotional and physical security in home, neighboring, and work environments. Until these needs are met, higher order needs cannot be addressed. The services at the shelter provide for the physiological needs of food and housing. The needs of love and belonging and self-actualization must follow meeting more basic needs.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 1, 3, 4
Explanation: The child is at the concrete operational stage when reasoning begins; she should be able to understand when clear information is presented and concrete items are used in explanations. Encouraging participation in favorite activities supports normal developmental processes. The need for privacy is usually typical of adolescence. Touching and playing with equipment is advised at an earlier developmental stage.
