c. Few physical differences are apparent among
children at the end of middle childhood.
d. Fat gradually increases, which contributes to
the child's heavier appearance. - ANSWER-ANS:
B
In middle childhood, growth in height and
weight occur at a slower pace. Between the
ages of 6 and 12 years, children grow 2
inches/year. In middle childhood, children's
weight will almost double; they gain 3 kg/year.
At the end of middle childhood, girls grow taller
and gain more weight than boys. Children take
on a slimmer look with longer legs in middle
childhood.

b. 11 years in girls, 11 years in boys
c. 10 years in girls, 12 years in boys
d. 12 years in girls, 10 years in boys - ANSWERANS: C
Puberty signals the beginning of the
development of secondary sex characteristics.
This begins in girls earlier than in boys. Usually
a 2-year difference occurs in the age at onset.
Girls and boys do not usually begin puberty at
the same age; girls usually begin earlier than
boys do.
3. Which statement describes the cognitive
abilities of school-age children?
a. Have developed the ability to reason
abstractly
b. Become capable of scientific reasoning and
formal logic
c. Progress from making judgments based on
what they reason to making judgments based
on what they see
d. Have the ability to classify, group and sort,
and hold a concept in their minds while making
decisions based on that concept - ANSWERANS: D
In Piaget's stage of concrete operations,
children have the ability to group and sort and
make conceptual decisions. Children cannot
reason abstractly until late adolescence.
Scientific reasoning and formal logic are skills of
adolescents. Making judgments on what the
child sees versus what he or she reasons is not
a developmental skill.
4. What describes moral development in
younger school-age children?
a. The standards of behavior now come from
within themselves.
b. They do not yet experience a sense of guilt
when they misbehave.
c. They know the rules and behaviors expected
of them but do not understand the reasons
behind them.
d. They no longer interpret accidents and
misfortunes as punishment for misdeeds. -
ANSWER-ANS: C
Children who are ages 6 and 7 years know the
rules and behaviors expected of them but do
not understand the reasons for them. Young
children do not believe that standards of
behavior come from within themselves but that
rules are established and set down by others.
Younger school-age children learn standards for
acceptable behavior, act according to these
standards, and feel guilty when they violate
them. Misfortunes and accidents are viewed as
punishment for bad acts.
