Answer to Question 1

Ans: A

According to Erikson, the crisis of identity versus role confusion is characteristic of adolescence. Consequently, a nurse who provides care in a junior high school is likely to see frequent manifestations of this crisis. Early childhood, middle adulthood, and late adulthood are not typical life stages for the resolution of this crisis.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A

Havighurst identifies the acceptance and adjustment to physical changes as a task associated with middle adulthood. Adjusting to declining health and reduced income are associated with later maturity, while learning to live with a marriage partner is a developmental task of young adulthood.
