| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | C)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | academic self-esteem also will have high physical appearance self-esteem. |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | D)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | levels of self-esteem in one distinct dimension may not necessarily have high levels of self-esteem in another. |

28 | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) In Erikson's theory of development, people move through eight stages of psychosocial development by resolving the psychosocial crises of each stage. What does Erikson mean by the successful resolution of a particular stage? |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | A)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | coming through the crisis entirely positively |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | B)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | coming through the crisis entirely negatively |

|
|
![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) |
29 | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) According to Erikson, the developmental stage that must be successfully resolved during the adolescent years is: |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | A)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | industry vs. inferiority. |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | B)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | integrity vs. despair. |

|
|
![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) |
30 | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) According to Erikson, psychosocial moratorium refers to the need of adolescents to: |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | A)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | be given substantial responsibilities to foster maturity. |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | B)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | be given substantial obligations to foster maturity. |

31 | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) According to Erikson's theory, problems in identity development characterized by an incoherent, disjointed, incomplete sense of self is called: |

| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | B)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | identity foreclosure. |

|
|
![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) |
32 | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) When an adolescent bypasses the period of exploration and experimentation that precedes the establishment of a healthy sense of identity, and prematurely commits themselves to a certain identity, the adolescent may have be experiencing: |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | A)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | identity diffusion. |
| ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | B)![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | identity foreclosure. |

![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) |
33 | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) Marcia and other identity status researchers developed a scheme for determining an adolescent's identity status by assigning individuals to one of four categories. An adolescent who has established a coherent sense of identity is assigned to the category of: |
