Answer to Question 1

Ans: A

The child is demonstrating characteristics of the stage of IntuitiveProjective Faith. During this stage, the child takes on parental attitudes toward religious or moral beliefs without an understanding of them. During the MysticalLiteral Faith stage, the child accepts the existence of a deity. SyntheticConvention al Faith is the characteristic stage for many adolescents when they begin to question life-guiding values or religious practices in an attempt to stabilize their own identity. The IndividuativeReflec tive Faith stage often occurs during the older adolescent and young adult years, as individuals become responsible for their own commitments, beliefs, and attitudes.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A

In the settling-down phase (age 30-40), the adult invests energy into the areas of life that are most important, such as family, work, and community. The years of the middle to late 20s (age 22-28) are a time to build on previous decisions and choices, and to try different careers and lifestyles. It is defined as the phase of entering the adult world. During early adult transition, the major concerns of the young adult (age 18-22) are to break away from the parents, to make initial career choices, and to establish intimate relationships. Midlife transition (age 40-45) involves a reappraisal of one's goals and values.
