Question

As people enter adolescence they start focusing more time on romantic relationships, and spend less time with friends as a result. This illustrates how development is:_______

a) plastic
b) contextual
c) multidisciplinary
d) multidirectional.

Answer 1

The correct option is d) multidirectional

Step-by-step explanation:

Many biological, cognitive, and socioemotional changes occur in a person as he/she develops. The dimensions shrink and grow at different points in a person during development. Some dimensions might become more important in different stages of life.

Certain things which were important first in the life of a person may become secondary during the developmental phases. Each phase will have a more important direction to look upon and hence, the priorities change with them.
