Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Self-control and abstract thinking increase during adolescence and the transition to adulthood, which can lead to the development and sharpening of moral values. Intiative and industriousness (A) may contribute to the formation of personal goals but may not directly impact moral values. Intuition and generativity (C) are related to psychological development in later life stages and are not directly associated with moral values. Animism and egocentrism (D) are cognitive limitations that are typically overcome during early childhood and not relevant to moral values during adolescence and adulthood.
