Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
Self-esteem is usually highest in childhood, drops during adolescence, rises gradually throughout adulthood, and declines again in old age. Although variability exists, in general this pattern holds true across gender, socioeconomic status, and ethnicity.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
For some adolescents, a decline in self-esteem results in increased risk-taking behavior. This is demonstrated in unsafe behaviors such as premature sexual activity, unprotected sex, risky driv-ing, or substance abuse. The remaining options represent factors that may affect decision making but they do not have as big an impact on this age-group as is poor self-esteem.
