MULTIPLE CHOICE

THAT A CHILD IS A(N):
(A) WONDER POSSIBILITY
(B) SERVANT TO BIOLOGY
(C) EMPTY CUP
(D) BLANK SLATE
(E) UNSHAPED MOLD
ANSWER:>(D)
JOHN LOCKE BELIEVED THAT CHILDREN ARE BORN WITHOUT INNATE
IDEAS OR PRECONCEIVED NOTIONS AND THAT THEIR EXPERIENCES SHAPE
THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF THE WORLD. THE TERM "BLANK SLATE"
REFERS TO THIS CONCEPT, IMPLYING THAT THE MIND OF A CHILD IS LIKE
A CLEAN SLATE, READY TO BE FILLED WITH EXPERIENCES.
2. ACCORDING TO GILLIGAN (1982), AN ETHIC OF CARING WHEN MAKING
MORAL JUDGMENTS STEMS FROM:
(A) THINKING OF PEOPLE AS SEPARATE BEINGS
(B) A VIEW OF THE INTERCONNECTEDNESS OF PEOPLE
(C) THINKING OF ALL PEOPLE AS HAVING VALUE
(D) VIEWING OTHERS AS BEING EQUAL IN VALUE TO ONESELF
(E) FOCUSING ON INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OVER RELATIONSHIPS
ANSWER:>(B)
CAROL GILLIGAN ARGUED THAT AN ETHIC OF CARE FOCUSES ON
RELATIONSHIPS AND THE INTERCONNECTEDNESS OF INDIVIDUALS. THIS
, MORAL APPROACH EMPHASIZES THE IMPORTANCE OF RELATIONSHIPS,
EMPATHY, AND CARE IN MORAL DECISION-MAKING, AS OPPOSED TO A
JUSTICE-BASED FRAMEWORK.
3. AMONG INDIVIDUALS, INTERNALIZING TENDS TO:
(A) INCREASE WITH AGE
(B) DECREASE WITH AGE
(C) DECREASE WITH FURTHER EDUCATION
(D) INCREASE INVERSELY TO THE NUMBER OF FRIENDS ONE HAS
(E) REMAIN THE SAME THROUGHOUT ADULTHOOD
ANSWER:>(A)
INTERNALIZING BEHAVIORS, SUCH AS FEELINGS OF GUILT OR ANXIETY,
TEND TO INCREASE AS PEOPLE GROW OLDER. THIS IS BECAUSE
INDIVIDUALS OFTEN BECOME MORE SELF-REFLECTIVE AND ARE EXPOSED
TO MORE SOCIETAL NORMS AND EXPECTATIONS OVER TIME.
4. ADOLESCENT GIRLS IN THE US HAVE MORE SIMILAR ATTITUDES ABOUT
__ WITH THEIR FRIENDS THAN BOYS:
(A) SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT
(B) SEXUAL BEHAVIORS
(C) NORMATIVE BEHAVIORS
(D) SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
(E) CAREER CHOICES
ANSWER:>(B)
RESEARCH INDICATES THAT ADOLESCENT GIRLS TEND TO SHARE MORE
SIMILAR ATTITUDES ABOUT SEXUAL BEHAVIORS WITH THEIR FRIENDS
COMPARED TO BOYS. THIS IS OFTEN DUE TO THE WAY GIRLS ARE
SOCIALIZED TO EMPHASIZE EMOTIONAL AND RELATIONAL FACTORS.
