Match List - I with List - II and indicate your answer using the codes given below :

List - I (Accomplishments)List - II (Cognitive Developmental Stage)
p. Egocentric thought1. Sensorimotor
q. Object permanence2. Formal operational
r. Abstract reasoning3. Pre operational
s. Conservation-reversibility4. Concrete operational

Codes : p q r s

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: B

The correct matching is egocentric thought with the pre-operational stage (3), object permanence with the sensorimotor stage (1), abstract reasoning with the formal operational stage (2) and conservation-reversibility with the concrete operational stage (4). The code is 3, 1, 2, 4.

These are the accomplishments that Piaget placed in each stage of cognitive development, and the other codes put at least one of them in the wrong stage.

Three mountains task was used by Piaget to study ______ in children.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: C

The three mountains task was used by Piaget to study egocentrism in children. A child views a model of three mountains and is asked what a doll at another position can see, and young children tend to describe their own view.

Centration, conservation and reversibility were studied by other tasks, such as the liquid and number conservation tasks. They are therefore not the answer.

As compared to primary school students, middle school students use more of

1. Rehearsal
2. Elaboration
3. Metacognition
Codes :

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

Middle school students use rehearsal, elaboration and metacognition more than primary school students, so the code is 1, 2 and 3. Memory strategies develop with age: young children rehearse little, and older children use more rehearsal, organise and elaborate the material, and monitor their own learning.

The codes that leave out any of the three are incomplete, and so they are rejected.

Arrange the following treatment methodology in order in which they got known :

1. Client Centered Therapy
2. Psychoanalytic Therapy
3. Reciprocal Inhibition Technique
4. Reinforcement Contingency
Codes :

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: C

The order in which the methods became known is psychoanalytic therapy, client centered therapy, the reinforcement contingency and then reciprocal inhibition, which is the code 2, 1, 4, 3.

Freud's psychoanalysis is the oldest, and Rogers's client centered therapy followed it. Skinner's reinforcement contingency came next, and Wolpe's reciprocal inhibition technique later. The codes that begin with client centered therapy or with reciprocal inhibition place a later method before an earlier one.

Match the following items of List - I & List - II and indicate your answer using the codes given below :

List - IList - II
p. Authoritarian & unloving parents1. Conflicted and irritable children
q. Permissive and loving parents2. Moody and conduct disordered children
r. Neglectful and uninvolved parents3. Friendly and competitive children
s. Authoritative and loving parents4. Impulsive and aggressive children

Codes : p q r s

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

The key gives the matching as authoritarian and unloving parents with moody and conduct disordered children (2), permissive and loving parents with conflicted and irritable children (1), neglectful and uninvolved parents with impulsive and aggressive children (4) and authoritative and loving parents with friendly and competitive children (3). The code is 2, 1, 4, 3.

The authoritative style gives the best outcomes in the list, and the other three styles are matched to poorer outcomes. The other codes give friendly and competitive children to a style other than the authoritative one.

Given below are two statements, Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Indicate your answer using the codes given below :

Assertion (A) : The most important neurotransmitter implicated in schizophrenia is Dopamine.
Reason (R) : Clinical evidence suggests that drugs which reduce the level of dopamine in the brain also give rise to psychotic states like schizophrenia.
Codes :

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: C

The Assertion is true and the Reason is false, which is the third code. Dopamine is the neurotransmitter most strongly implicated in schizophrenia, so (A) is true.

The Reason says that drugs reducing the level of dopamine give rise to psychotic states. In fact the reverse holds: antipsychotic drugs block dopamine receptors and reduce psychotic symptoms, while drugs that raise dopamine, such as amphetamines, can produce psychotic states. So (R) is false, and the codes which accept it are rejected.

Match List - I with List - II and indicate your answer using the codes given below :

List - I (State of attachment)List - II (Description)
p. Privation1. the state of a child who has never formed a close attachment with anyone.
q. Anaclitic depression2. a condition or disorder found among juvenile delinquents involving a lack of guilt and remorse.
r. Deprivation3. a condition experienced by some children who are poorly cared for having loss of appetite and feeling of helplessness.
s. Affectionless psychopathology4. the state of a child who has formed a close relationship to someone, but is later separated from that person

Codes : p q r s

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: A

The correct matching is privation with a child who has never formed a close attachment (1), anaclitic depression with loss of appetite and helplessness in poorly cared for children (3), deprivation with a child who formed an attachment but was later separated (4) and affectionless psychopathology with lack of guilt and remorse among juvenile delinquents (2). The code is 1, 3, 4, 2.

Privation means never having had the bond, and deprivation means losing one already formed. The other codes swap these two or the other pair.

Select the pair of poles of dimensions for 'permissive parenting style' as proposed by Maccoby and Martin among the given below :

1. Demanding 2. Responsive
3. Unresponsive 4. Undemanding
Codes :

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

In the Maccoby and Martin scheme, permissive parenting is responsive and undemanding, so the pair is 2 and 4.

The scheme crosses two dimensions, demandingness and responsiveness. Permissive parents are high on responsiveness and low on demandingness. Demanding with unresponsive parenting is the authoritarian style, and unresponsive with undemanding is the neglectful style, so the other pairs are rejected.

The child who says "Milk gone" is engaging in ________. This type of utterance demonstrates that children are actively experimenting with rules of ________.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: B

The child is engaging in telegraphic speech, which shows experimenting with the rules of syntax.

Telegraphic speech, in the two-word stage, uses only the main content words, as in Milk gone, and drops the small grammatical words. By putting words in an order the child is testing the rules of syntax, which govern word order.

Babbling is the early production of speech sounds without meaning, and semantics is the study of meaning, which is not what this word order shows.
