According to Erikson, preschoolers a. find a new sense of power and freedom as they develop the motor skills and the language skills they need to become fully engaged in the environment and the social interactions around them. They discover that with this power and freedom comes new adult pressure to control immature impulses. b. begin to develop self-help, self-feeding, potty learning, and
dressing skills, among others, at this age. Their self-confidence in this stage hinges on their negotiation of this difficult new territory with caregivers. c. depend on school as the critical factor of their social development. Children make a transition from the world of home into the world of community, school, and peers. Home is still important, but succeeding outside the home takes on new importance. d. none of these. e. all of these.
Jermaine was an average to above average student in all respects until he reached the fourth grade. Then, during subject matter instruction, he frequently "tuned out" the teacher, daydreamed instead of working on classroom assignments, often blurted out answers to the teacher's questions without first thinking about a reasonable answer, and frequently left his seat to sharpen pencils or visit
with other students. These behaviors rarely occurred, however, during art and music instruction. On the basis of this description, would you propose that Jermaine be classified as having attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)? a. Yes, because he is inattentive, impulsive, and demonstrates a high level of activity. b. Yes, because ADHD is defined as a disorder that only occurs past the age of seven and during subject matter instruction. c. No, because Jermaine's behavior is not consistent over time or situations. d. No, because Jermaine's behavior is more consistent with the definition of behavior disorder.
