Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Kohlberg's gender-typing theory posits that gender stability (the recognition that one's gender is stable over time) is a precursor to gender consistency (the realization that gender is invariant despite changes in appearance or behavior). The analogy between stability and consistency is one of time and situation, as the former relates to a perception over time and the latter pertains to a realization across different contexts. Therefore, the best option is D, time and situation. The other choices are not related to the analogy between stability and consistency.
