question 5

Multiple Choice

A longitudinal study in Germany by Asendorpf, Denissen and van Aken (2008) followed children aged 4 to 6 years old until they were 23. Researchers were interested in whether childhood emotionality translates to adulthood and how it may impact an individual's relationship and occupational status in adulthood. The key finding from this study suggests that emotionality in childhood:

• A) does not predict emotionality, relationship or occupational status in adulthood.
• B) predicts how long it will take an individual to enter into their first stable romantic relationship as an adult but not how long it will take them to find their first full-time job.
• C) predicts how long it will take an individual to find their first full-time job but not how long it will take them to enter into their first stable romantic relationship as an adult.
• D) predicts how long it will take an individual to enter into their first stable romantic relationship as an adult as well as how long it will take them to find their first full-time job.
