Generalizations or assumptions are often made about the characteristics of members in a group based on an image. When one imagines what a person is like without looking at them as an individual, errors are often made. Example: A couple gets lost in a big city and finds themselves in a low-income community. They lock their doors and try not to make eye contact with the children and adults walking on the sidewalk. The couple fears everyone living in this environment will try to steal from them because they are too lazy to find a job. This is an example of what theory?

  1. Social avoidance
  2. Racial grouping
  3. Stereotyping
  4. Discrimination

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Individuals like to simplify and predict the world by categorizing blocks of information. Prior assumptions lead to stereotyping groups of individuals into standard conceptions. This occurs when people find it difficult to accept all the complexities of others.



The first interactive relationship of an infant's life is the emotional attachment with a caregiver. This non-verbal experience determines how an individual will relate to other people throughout their life. A successful attachment gives one the ability to find happiness in being with others and maintain an emotional balance. If this connection is unsuccessful, there may be a failure to shape future intimate relationships. Children who become unable to attach to their caregiver are often diagnosed with which of the following?

  1. Reactive Attachment Disorder
  2. Conduct Disorder
  3. Failure to Thrive
  4. Attachment Conduct Disorder

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Children who become unable to attach to their caregiver are often diagnosed with an attachment disorder like RAD. The ability to shape all future relationships is based on the first emotional attachment with a mother or caregiver. Mothers who respond to their infant's needs create a sense of security. The strong basis of an attachment bond enables the child to be trusting, self -confident, and comfortable in the face of conflict. In cases where children's lives are disrupted at an early stage, such as being placed in a series of different foster homes, these children are at risk for being unable to form a bond with a caregiver, as they have no consistent caregiver in their lives.



The 8th stage of Erik Erikson's psychosocial model occurs in late adulthood, usually 60 years of age or older. Some people in this life cycle begin to experience a sense of mortality, thinking back upon their lives and coming to terms with their choices. Others will see the wrong choices they made and feel life is too short to make any changes. What is the name of this life stage?

  1. Ego integrity versus despair
  2. Intimacy versus isolation
  3. Generativity versus self-absorption
  4. Identity versus role confusion

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Older adults who are satisfied with their life's accomplishments have a sense of integrity. Those who realize integrity was not achieved, feel the outcome of despair which can cause bitterness and hopelessness. The elderly population at this stage of "ego integrity versus despair" reaches an understanding of the reality that death is close. They can have a positive or negative outlook, but must accept their lives as coming to an end.

Being a full time mom does not leave much time for studying. So I resorted to this braindumps questions and answers. With a 20% discount offer the price of $31 is well worth saving so much time. I managed to pass the exam with 78% mark. Now I have my certificate and don't have to worry for the whole year.

Well, the content is okay. It helped me with the exam but it is better you study outside these brain dumps if you want to learn the topics. Using this braindumps will only help you pass. It does not teach you much.
