Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Body transcendence versus body preoccupation calls for the individual to adjust to decreasing physical capacities and at the same time maintain feelings of well-being.
Rationale 2: Ego transcendence is the acceptance without fear of one's death as inevitable. This acceptance includes being actively involved in one's own future beyond death. Peck proposes that there are three developmental tasks during old age, in contrast to Erikson's one-integrity versus despair.
Rationale 3: Ego differentiation versus work-role preoccupation maintains that an adult's identity and feelings of worth are highly dependent on that person's work role.
Rationale 4: Erikson proposed Integrity versus despair not Peck.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale: Roger Gould studied adult development and described seven stages. Stage 2 (ages 18-22) is where individuals have established autonomy, feel it is in jeopardy, and feel they could be pulled back into their families.
