Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: In Erikson's theory, human development involves a series of personal conflicts. The potential for these conflicts exists at birth as innate predispositions, each of which will become prominent at different stages when our environment demands certain adaptations. Each confrontation with our environment is called a crisis. The crisis involves a shift in perspective.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: According to the epigenetic principle of maturation, inherited forces are the determining characteristics of the developmental stages; development depends on genetic factors. However, it is the social and environmental forces to which we are exposed that control the ways in which the genetically predetermined stages of development are realized. Thus, our personality development is affected by both biological and social factors.
