Question 2

Question 3

The basic strength called purpose should be realized during the muscular-anal stage, which is characterized by initiative versus guilt.

(Answer to Q. 1)  ANS: F
FEEDBACK: Adolescence, between ages 12 and 18, is the stage at which we must meet and resolve the crisis of our basic ego identity. This stage of development is linked to identity cohesion versus role confusion as ways of coping with crisis.

(Answer to Q. 2)  ANS: T
FEEDBACK: Erikson's latency stage of psychosocial development, which occurs from ages 6 to 11, corresponds to Freud's latency period. The child's growing powers of deductive reasoning and the ability to play by rules lead to the deliberate refinement of the skills displayed in building things.

(Answer to Q. 3)  ANS: F
FEEDBACK: In the locomotor-genital stage, children express a strong desire to take the initiative in many activities. The basic strength called purpose arises from initiative. Purpose involves the courage to envision and pursue goals.

(Answer to Q. 4)  ANS: F
FEEDBACK: During the muscular-anal stage at the second and third years of life, corresponding to Freud's anal stage, children rapidly develop a variety of physical and mental abilities and are able to do many things for themselves. Of all these abilities, Erikson believed the most important involved holding on and letting go. When parents frustrate their child's attempt to exercise independence, the child develops feelings of self-doubt and a sense of shame in dealing with others.

(Answer to Q. 5)  ANS: T
FEEDBACK: Basic strengths, or virtues, emerge once the crisis at each developmental stage has been resolved satisfactorily. He suggested that basic strengths are interdependent in that one strength cannot develop until the strength associated with the previous stage has been confirmed.
