Question 8 1 / 1 pts What is the basic mechanism that accounts for change in bioecological theory? time, including time at task and developmental time Proximal processes that occur regularly over extended periods the interaction of microsystems in a mesosystem personal qualities such as temperament and intelligence Question 9 1 / 1 pts Which of the following is a weakness of bioecological theory? the theory has a specific approach to measuring environments that can not be validated the theory does not include a developmental analysis of direction of normative changes in self-understanding, reasoning, or other aspects of competence over time the theory places emphasis on observing and recording behaviors in natural settings the theory has not been useful in guiding practical applications Incorrect Question 10
0 / 1 pts Which of the following was an important shift of focus in the field of human development prompted by Bronfenbrenner’s bioecological theory? greater consideration of unconscious processes in the study of young children a new method for measuring attention a new appreciation for infant intelligence and problem-solving abilities greater attention to characteristics of settings and description of behavior across settings Question 11 1 / 1 pts ______ refers to environments that involve frenetic activity, lack of structure and routine, unpredictability, and high levels of background stimulation that interfere with or interrupt proximal processes. pathological niches chaotic systems defensive realities black holes Question 12 1 / 1 pts In line with the idea of probabilistic epigenisis, dynamic systems theory suggests that organisms change in the direction of recurrent patterns or stable states which can be
modified depending on the circumstances. What is the term for these patterns or stable states? magnetic states attractor states adaptive states desired states Question 13 1 / 1 pts What is the meaning of the term “probabilistic epigenesis”? developmental patterns are relatively innate; a few early life experiences shape determine the path of development development is a product of many factors that influence one another; the direction of development is not predetermined there is no such thing as causation; all relationships are a result of chance when thinking about the future, a person needs to consider the likelihood of many possible outcomes Question 14 1 / 1 pts The basic mechanism that accounts for the emergence of more complex behaviors from simpler elements is: self-organization

self-awareness self-other interactions self-sustaining reform Question 15 1 / 1 pts In dynamic systems theory, the process of developmental change is referred to as: nanochange collective dynamics alternative reality emergence Question 16 1 / 1 pts When the Verma family (Anjali, Ray, and their kids) adopted a new child, this prompted a number of changes in their household: the two older children needed to take on new responsibilities for child care and household tasks, Anjali changed her work hours, and Ray quit his nighttime job so he could be with the baby in the evenings. From a family systems perspective, these changes are an example of which of the following? adaptive self-stabilization function coordination
feedback mechanisms adaptive self-organization Partial Question 17 2 / 3 pts Matching. The column on the left contains descriptions. The column on the right lists levels of nested contexts. For each description, select the level of nested context that correctly corresponds. Some levels may be used more than once or not at all. A setting in which a person has frequent face-to-face interactions with other people, objects, and/or activities microsystem The relationship between the demands and rewards of different roles mesosystem The laws, policies, and legal procedures of a country exosystem Partial Question 18 1 / 2 pts Select all that apply. In the bioecological model of development, the interaction between which of the following elements is emphasized? person time
relationships contexts culture process Question 19 2 / 2 pts Select all that apply. Which of the following is/are an assumption of bioecological theory? the person functions in more than one setting the person is passive and static settings are changing Question 20 2 / 2 pts Select all that apply. Which of the following are features of open systems? they transform energy into some type of product that is characteristic of the system they manage environmental fluctuations they maintain balance despite change
