Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Current research indicates that smoking cessation efforts should include stress management and improvement of self-esteem and body image. Weight concerns, especially in females, promote continued smoking. Obeying parents and reducing television viewing are not effective smoking cessation strategies. The developmental task of generativity versus self-absorption occurs in adulthood. Role overload is not a usual contributor to smoking in adolescents, although it could be; addiction counseling is not a smoking cessation intervention; depression is associated with decreased self-esteem but is not a primary smoking cessation target for adolescent girls in general.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Identify versus role confusion occurs between the ages of 12 and 20 years. Body image and self-esteem are attitudes related to personal reflection and attitudes. Role performance is the result of creating an identity.
