Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development

1. Learning Basic Trust Versus Basic Mistrust (Hope) Chronologically, this is the period of infancy through the first one or two years of life. The child, well - handled, nurtured, and loved, develops trust and security and a basic optimism. Badly handled, he becomes insecure and mistrustful. 2. Learning Autonomy Versus Shame (Will) The second psychosocial crisis, Erikson believes, occurs during early childhood, probably between about 18 months or 2 years and 3½ to 4 years of age. The "well - parented" child emerges from this stage sure of himself, elated with his new found control, and proud rather than ashamed. Autonomy is not, however, entirely synonymous with assured self - possession, initiative, and independence but, at least for children in the early part of this psychosocial crisis, includes stormy self - will, tantrums, stubbornness, and negativism. For example, one sees may 2 year olds resolutely folding their arms to prevent their mothers from holding their hands as they cross the street. Also, the sound of "NO" rings through the house or the grocery store. 3. Learning Initiative Versus Guilt (Purpose) Erikson believes that this third psychosocial crisis occurs during what he calls the "play age," or the later preschool years (from about 3½ to, in the United States culture, entry into formal school). During it, the healthily developing child learns: (1) to imagine, to broaden his skills through active play of all sorts, including fantasy (2) to cooperate with others (3) to lead as well as to follow. Immobilized by guilt, he is: (1) fearful (2) hangs on the fringes of groups (3) continues to depend unduly on adults and (4) is restricted both in the development of play skills and in imagination. 4. Industry Versus Inferiority (Competence) Erikson believes that the fourth psychosocial crisis is handled, for better or worse, during what he calls the "school age," presumably up to and possibly including some of junior high school. Here the child learns to master the more formal skills of life: (1) relating with peers according to rules (2) progressing from free play to play that may be elaborately structured by rules and may demand formal teamwork, such as baseball and (3) mastering social studies, reading, arithmetic. Homework is a necessity, and the need for self-discipline increases yearly. The child who, because of his successive and successful resolutions of earlier psychosocial crisis, is trusting, autonomous, and full of initiative will learn easily enough to be industrious. However, the mistrusting child will doubt the future. The shame - and guilt-filled child will experience defeat and inferiority. 5. Learning Identity Versus Identity Diffusion (Fidelity) During the fifth psychosocial crisis (adolescence, from about 13 or 14 to about 20) the child, now an adolescent, learns how to answer satisfactorily and happily the question of "Who am I?" But even the best - adjusted of adolescents experiences some role identity diffusion: most boys and probably most girls experiment with minor delinquency; rebellion flourishes; self - doubts flood the youngster, and so on. Erikson believes that during successful early adolescence, mature time perspective is developed; the young person acquires self-certainty as opposed to self-consciousness and self-doubt. He comes to experiment with different - usually constructive - roles rather than adopting a "negative identity" (such as delinquency). He actually anticipates achievement, and achieves, rather than being "paralyzed" by feelings of inferiority or by an inadequate time perspective. In later adolescence, clear sexual identity - manhood or womanhood - is established. The adolescent seeks leadership (someone to inspire him), and gradually develops a set of ideals (socially congruent and desirable, in the case of the successful adolescent). Erikson believes that, in our culture, adolescence affords a "psychosocial moratorium," particularly for middle - and upper-class American children. They do not yet have to "play for keeps," but can experiment, trying various roles, and thus hopefully find the one most suitable for them. 6. Learning Intimacy Versus Isolation (Love) The successful young adult, for the first time, can experience true intimacy - the sort of intimacy that makes possible good marriage or a genuine and enduring friendship. 7. Learning Generativity Versus Self-Absorption (Care) In adulthood, the psychosocial crisis demands generativity, both in the sense of marriage and parenthood, and in the sense of working productively and creatively. 8. Integrity Versus Despair (Wisdom) If the other seven psychosocial crisis have been successfully resolved, the mature adult develops the peak of adjustment; integrity. He trusts, he is independent and dares the new. He works hard, has found a well - defined role in life, and has developed a self-concept with which he is happy. He can be intimate without strain, guilt, regret, or lack of realism; and he is proud of what he creates - his children, his work, or his hobbies. If one or more of the earlier psychosocial crises have not been resolved, he may view himself and his life with disgust and despair.

A woman suffers a hemorrhage into her pituitary gland, destroying only the portion of the anterior pituitary responsible for producing luteinizing hormone. What will be the effect of this destruction on her menstrual cycle?

f the portion of the anterior pituitary that produces LH is destroyed, then LH levels will not surge during the menstrual cycle and ovulation would not occur (choice C is correct and choices B and D are wrong). In the absence of ovulation, the corpus luteum would not develop either, although if FSH is unaffected, the follicle would most likely develop and release estrogen.

he dancer is wearing a necklace which consists of a chain and a pendant of mass, m. When the dancer is spinning at a constant speed, the pendant pulls away from her body, and the chain makes an angle, θ, with the dancer's body. If the pendant is spinning at a constant speed, v, and the chain has a tension, T, what is the radius of the circle created by the pendant?

B. The question describes the pendant travelling in a circle making an angle, θ, with the dancer's body. A force diagram of the pendant is below. Notice that the component of tension directed into the center of the circle is T sin θ, not the full tension in the chain. It is just this component of tension that provides the centripetal force. Centripetal force is always equal to mv2 /r so in this case T sin θ = mv2 / r. Solving for the radius of the circle shows r = mv2 / T sin θ. The correct answer is choice B. mv^2 / Tsin(theta)

A 10 kg dancer raises her leg in the air in a développé. Her 2 kg leg is 1 m long and can be assumed to have uniform mass throughout its length. What angle, θ, between the working leg and the standing leg will create the most torque in the dancer's hip? A. 30° B. 45° C. 90° Correct Answer D. 135° Your Answer

C. Torque can be calculated using the equation τ = Fd sinθ, where F is the force creating torque, d is the distance from the force to the rotation point, and θ is the angle between F and d. In this case, the force is the weight of the leg which is (2 kg)(10 m/s2) = 20 N. Since the question states that the leg can be assumed to have uniform mass throughout its length, then the weight can all be considered to be acting in the middle of the leg. So the distance from the rotation point to the force is half the length of the leg, or 0.5 m. Using the values for force and distance, the torque equation becomes τ = (20 N)(0.5 m)sin θ = (10 N·m)sin θ. So the torque is greatest where sin θ is greatest. The angle between the two legs is the same as the angle between the force and the distance, so taking the sine of each of the answer choices shows the greatest torque is when the angle is 90°. While it might be tempting to select choice D since it is the largest angle, remember that the largest value sine can have is at an angle of 90°. The correct answer is choice C.

In a culture of mammalian skeletal muscle cells, the consumption of oxygen and glucose is measured. Which of the following would occur in response to inhibition of electron transport?

In the absence of electron transport, oxygen is not needed (it is the final electron acceptor in the transport chain) so the consumption of oxygen would decrease (choices A and B are wrong). Since the electron transport chain is not available to make energy (ATP) the cells will rely solely on anaerobic respiration - glycolysis. Further, since the energy demands of the cells have not changed, and since glycolysis makes fewer ATP than electron transport, the rate of glycolysis will have to increase to keep the level of ATP normal. Thus, glucose consumption would increase (choice D is correct and C is wrong). Oxygen consumption will decrease, and glucose consumption will increase

The 10 kg dancer leaps into the air with an initial velocity of 5 m/s at angle of 45° from the floor. How far will she travel in the air horizontally before she lands on the ground again?

The question is asking for the range R of the projectile (in this case, a dancer). Use v0x as the initial velocity in the x-direction and v0y as the initial velocity in the y-direction. So range = (v0x)(time in the air), or in this case, R = (5 m/s)(cos 45°)(total time). To find the time in the air, consider the time it takes to get to the top of the projectile parabola. The time to the top of the parabola can be calculated since the velocity in the y-direction at the top of the parabola is zero. So 0 = v0y - g(time to top) and time to the top = v0y / g = (5 m/s)(sin 45°)/(10 m/s2) = √2/4 s. Since the time in the air is twice the time to the top, the time in the air = 2(√2/4 s) = √2/2 s. Plug this into the original equation for range, so range = (5 m/s)(cos 45°)(√2/2 s) = 5(√2/2)(√2/2) = 5(2/4) = 2.5 m. The correct answer is choice B. Anwser = 2.5m

moving an object closer to a concave mirror makes the image

smaller

an object is placed in front of a concave mirror between the focal point and the mirror. If the object is then moved closer to the mirror, the image would be:

smaller and closer to the mirror (an object that is placed at the focal point creates no image) Conceptually, an object placed directly at the focal point would produce no image (i.e., an image infinitely far away). Therefore it makes sense that moving away from the focal point would produce an image closer to the mirror. This would eliminate choices A and B. Also, when an object is placed between the focal point and the mirror, the image is virtual and larger than the object. As the object moves closer to the mirror, the image would get smaller and eventually become the same size as the object when the object is touching the mirror. The answer is therefore choice D.

Plugging in the variables gives us Delta G = 0 + Rtln ([ 10 x 10^-3][10 x 10^-3]^2) / [10 x 10^-3] = RTln10^-4 = -4RTln10 (this tells us that because both R and T are +, and natural log values are greater than 0, then Delta G must be - and coreespond to a negative Delta G)

phthalamide

used as the nucleophile in the gabriel synthesis

ion exchange chromatography

uses a charged column and a variably saline eluent

Jones Oxidation

uses chromium trioxide dissolved in dilute sulfuric acid and acetone (stronger oxidizing agent) to oxidize primary alcohols to carboxylic acids or secondary alcohols to ketones

Fluorescent in situ hybridization

uses fluorescent DNA probes to bind to chromosomes and could detect a translocation by detecting a gene on an unexpected chromosome

Weak intermolecular forces

van der Waals force - weak attractive force between molecules from dipole-dipole/induced dipole inetrations

moderating variable

variable that changes the nature of the relationship between two other variables decreasing of increasing the strength of an association

when the object is situation at longer than the focal length, lenses form what type of images

virtual and reduced (lenses have a - focal length since they are diverging)

diverging species...(convex mirrors and convex lenses) will always produce

virtual images

R cerebral hemisphere controls

visuospatial skills, music perception, and emotion processing

what depolarizes the cell after depolarization

voltage gated potassium channels

Most stable chair conformation

want the largest subs to be equitorial and trans to give the least amount of steric strain

to form a geminal diol, what could attack a carbonyl carbon

water this represents a hydration reaction to form a geminal diol (a compound with 2 OH groups on the same C)

a cell placed in a hypotonic enviorment causes what movemnt

water moves from high concentration of water from the enviorment into the cell

how does vacuum distillation work

we can lower boiling point by reducing Patm, which can be accomplished through the introduction of a vacuum.

What is the normality of a 0.015 M solution of phosphoric acid?

we need to consider the protons since this is an acid H3PO4 so in this case we multiply 0.015N x 3 H+ ions = 0.045N

Low Ka

weak acid (will react with a base)

Buffer

weak acid or base that can react with strong acids or bases to help prevent sharp, sudden changes in pH ex: citric acid is a weak triprotic acid that acts as a buffer over a range of pH

dissociation of weak acids in water

weak acids will only partially dissociate ; H2CO3 becomes H+ and HCO3- in only a very small amount

Good leaving groups are (list H2O HO- Br- and H- in order of decreasing LG ability)

weak bases H2O > Br-> HO- > H-

what causes the spontaneous formation of anhydrides (specifically cyclic anhydrides)

when a dicarboxyic acid is exposed to heat

Hypotonic

when comparing two solutions, the solution with the lesser concentration of solutes (like NaCl) with a higher concentration of water when a cell is placed in an enviorment with low solute concentration, water travels from environment into the cell

when is vaccum distillation usefull

when components have very high BP and would otherwise be difficult to distill (nucleation sites must be provided by boiling chips or scratching the side of the flask)

virtual image

when image and object are on the same side as the lense creates a negative image distance

kinship of affinity

when individuals are related by choice, rather than through blood ie when a father and stepmother merge children from previous marriages

diffraction of light waves

when light passes through a narrow opening , the light waves spread out; as the slit narrows,the light waves aprad out even more

looking-glass self

when people shape their self concepts based on their understanding of how others perceive them an individual will internalize bias/stigma that is directed towards them

when is work done on a gas

when the gas changes volumes (will be visible on a P vs V graph)

at what point are two populations descended from the same ancesteral stock considered to be seperate species

when they can no longer produce viable, fertile offspring

how can electrons GAIN energy

when they jump to a higher E level ie going from n=2 to n=6

which of the following directly provides the E needed to form ATP in the mitochondrian electron transfer in the electron transport chain an electrochemial proton gradient oxidtion of acetyl CoA B oxidation of fatty acids

while all of the answeres contibute to E production, it is the electrochemical gradient / proton motive force that directly drives the phosphorylation of ATP by the F1 portion of ATP synthase

When a patient is on the operating table for heart surgery, surgeons need to clamp major nearby blood vessels before cutting them because, according to Bernoulli's equation, a volume of pressurized blood opened to the atmosphere:

will convert its pressure to kinetic energy, rapidly exiting the body and causing shock.

when is UV spectroscopy best used

with conjugated systems of double bonds (ie aromatic systems such as with the aromtic AA)

in vitro

within a glass, observable within a test tube

when you treat a 2ndary alcohol with a strong oxidizing agent...

you get a ketone

emission of a photon occurs when

you go from a high energy state to a low energy state

what is the pH of a 0.010M solution of sodium hydroxide at 25C

you know that NaOH is a strong base and will therefor completely dissociate therefor the Hydroxide ion concentration is 1.0 x 10^-2 M the negative log of the OH concentration gives a pOH of 2 since pOH + pH = 14 then 2 + pH = 14 so pH = 12

Type 1 error (alpha)

you sAw a difference that did not really exist (convicting an innocent man)

Type 2 error (beta)

you were Blind to a difference that did exist (FN: setting a guilty man free)
