Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
During the fifth theme (50s), Gould finds a realization of mortality with a concern for one's state of health. During the first theme (20s), Gould finds individuals wanting to get away from their parents. During the second theme (30s), Gould finds young adults working to accept who they are and to accept their growing children as being unique and separate. During the fourth theme (40s), Gould finds resignation and the belief that possibilities are limited.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
During Piaget's concrete operations stage of cognitive development, the child is able to under-stand that objects or quantities remain the same despite a change in their physical appearance, such as when ice becomes water. During Piaget's sensorimotor stage of cognitive development, the child is exploring the environment but is unable to understand the concept of ice becoming water. During Piaget's preoperational stage of cognitive development, the child is learning to think with the use of symbols and mental images but is not able to understand the concept of ice becoming water. According to Piaget's formal operations stage of cognitive development, the individual's thinking moves to abstract and theoretical subjects.
