Long, complex babbles that sound identical in intonation to adult speech :

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2019, SET Exam - 2019,

Answer: C

Long, complex babbles that sound like adult speech in intonation are expressive jargon.

Towards the end of the first year, about 10-18 months, babies produce strings of syllables with the rise and fall, pauses and stresses of adult sentences, though they contain few or no real words. It sounds as if the child is talking in a foreign language.

Lallation is earlier babbling, repeating simple syllables such as 'la-la' or 'ma-ma', and cooing is the still earlier production of vowel-like sounds. Neither has the sentence-like intonation of jargon.

Infants, toddlers and young children are called in a safe and stimulating environment in absence of parents is called :

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2019, SET Exam - 2019,

Answer: D

A facility caring for infants, toddlers and young children in the absence of parents is a creche.

A creche is a day-care centre where young children, often from a few months old, are looked after in a safe and stimulating environment while their parents are at work. Its main purpose is care, with play and early stimulation.

Nursery schools, Montessori schools and kindergartens are pre-primary educational settings for children of about three to six years. They focus on early education for a few hours a day rather than substitute care for infants.

Vijay is first grade student with Spina bifida. Which of the assistive devices would Vijay belief from most :

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2019, SET Exam - 2019,

Answer: D

A child with spina bifida would benefit most from leg braces.

Spina bifida is a neural tube defect in which the spinal column does not close completely. Damage to the spinal cord commonly weakens or paralyses the legs, so orthotic devices such as leg braces, crutches or a wheelchair are the main aids for mobility. ('Belief' in the stem stands for benefit.)

Hearing aids are for hearing impairment and a Braille writer for visual impairment, neither of which is a typical feature of spina bifida. A word processor may help some children with writing, but it does not address the main physical need.

When sexual exploitation happens online, young boys and girls may forced to do except one of the following :

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2019, SET Exam - 2019,

Answer: A

The exception is being physically involved.

Online sexual exploitation takes place through the internet and devices. Victims may be coerced to send or post sexually explicit images of themselves, to perform sexual acts in front of a webcam or smartphone, or to engage in sexual conversations by text or online.

Direct physical contact with the abuser is not part of exploitation that happens online, although online grooming can lead to it later. The other three options all describe forms of online exploitation.

Virtue attached to Erikson's fourth stage Industry Vs. Inferiority :

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2019, SET Exam - 2019,

Answer: C

The virtue of Erikson's fourth stage, industry versus inferiority, is competence.

During the school years, roughly 6 to 12, children learn skills and take pride in completing tasks. Success builds a sense of industry and the virtue of competence; repeated failure produces feelings of inferiority.

Hope is the virtue of the first stage (trust versus mistrust), love of the sixth (intimacy versus isolation), and wisdom of the eighth (integrity versus despair).

Answer: A

The accurate statement is that adolescence is a social construct.

Development texts describe adolescence as a concept that emerged with industrialisation, when compulsory schooling, child labour laws and longer training created a distinct period between childhood and adulthood. The biological changes of puberty are universal, but the life stage called adolescence is defined by society.

So the idea has not existed throughout human history. Today it is recognised in most societies, not few, as schooling has spread. And adolescence is not the beginning of puberty: puberty is the biological process that begins it.

The relationship between body and mind :

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2019, SET Exam - 2019,

Answer: A

The relationship between body and mind is interactive and complex.

Physical states affect thoughts and feelings, as illness, hunger or hormones change mood, and mental states affect the body, as stress raises blood pressure and lowers immunity. Developmental and health sciences therefore treat the person as a whole in which body and mind influence each other continuously.

Saying the relationship does not exist, is unrelated or is imaginary denies the well documented psychosomatic links, such as stress-related disorders, so all three are wrong.

MMR vaccination protects children against measles, mumps and .......... .

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2020, SET Exam - 2020,

Answer: B

MMR protects against measles, mumps and rubella.

The combined live attenuated vaccine covers three viral diseases. Rubella (German measles) is usually mild in children but can cause congenital rubella syndrome, with deafness, cataract and heart defects, if a woman is infected in early pregnancy.

Rheumatic fever follows streptococcal infection and is not prevented by MMR, respiratory tract infection is a general category rather than one disease, and rickets is a vitamin D deficiency, not an infection at all.

Answer: A

Infant mortality rate is the number of babies dying in the first year of life per 1000 live births.

It counts deaths of infants under one year of age in a year for every 1,000 live births in the same year, and is one of the most sensitive indicators of a population's health and living conditions.

Deaths before one month (28 days) per 1,000 live births give the neonatal mortality rate. Deaths between ages 1 and 4 are measured by the child mortality rate, and '1 to 2 years' is not a standard indicator.

Answer: C

Dizygotic twins may be of the same or different sex.

Dizygotic (fraternal) twins develop from two separate eggs fertilised by two different sperm. Genetically they are no more alike than ordinary siblings, sharing about half their genes, so they can be two boys, two girls, or a boy and a girl.

Being genetically identical and coming from a single fertilised egg describe monozygotic (identical) twins. Dizygotic twins are true twins, born together from one pregnancy.
