Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Developing intimacy and reorganization (in Erikson's theory of psychosocial development) and tasks in adolescent mourning both involve forming new relationships and adjusting to changes in relationships. Adolescents may experience a reorganization of their social networks and seek to develop new intimate relationships after the loss of a loved one.

B) establishing emotional separation and disorganization is not properly matched as tasks in adolescent mourning typically involve difficulties with emotional attachment and regulation, not separation.

C) Achieving competency or mastery and protest/searching may have some overlap in terms of exploring identity and achieving independence, but it is not a direct or clear comparison to tasks in adolescent mourning.

D) None of these options are properly matched for all pairs.
