Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Role overload involves having more roles or responsibilities within a role than are manageable. Role overload is common in individuals who unsuccessfully attempt to meet the demands of work and family while trying to find some personal time. Role confusion is an aspect of the developmental task of adolescence and young adulthood (identity versus role confusion). Role ambiguity involves unclear role expectations. Role performance is the way in which individuals perceive their ability to carry out significant roles; it is not a stressor unless it is judged ineffective. There is no data in the question to indicate this.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The initiative versus guilt developmental stage occurs between the ages of 3 and 6 years. The patient is a 5-year-old kindergarten student. If a child shows initiative, the outcome of this developmental task is to develop purpose. A neonate developmental task is to develop trust. An 11-year-old is into new skill mastery (industry), and a 15-year-old is struggling with identity versus role confusion.
