Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: Erikson viewed the developmental choice of the middle-aged adult as generativity versus stagnation. Generativity is defined as concern for establishing and guiding the next generation. This could be accomplished through a mentor program with school-age children.
Rationale 2: Peer socialization is a task of the young adult and adolescent.
Rationale 3: Finding civic responsibility is a task of the young adult and adolescent.
Rationale 4: Taking inventory of past accomplishments is the task of the older adult.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Recommended immunizations for this age group include tetanus-diphtheria booster every 10 years.
Rationale 2: The hepatitis B series would not be recommended for travel within the United States.
Rationale 3: Recommended immunizations for this age group include the meningococcal vaccine if not given in early adolescence.
Rationale 4: There are recommended immunizations for this age group.
