Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Zia's belief about choosing developmentally appropriate toys and activities for children and not expecting beyond their capabilities is consistent with the organismic theory, which emphasizes the importance of considering a child's biological and psychological needs in child-rearing practices. The other theories (psychodynamic, behavioral, and biopsychological) do not specifically address this idea.
