In terms of developmental psychology, which concept indicates how well a person interacts with his or her environment?

Adaptability
Learning Theory
Conflict Resolution
Cognitive Theory

The correct answer is: Adaptability

Adaptability is the correct answer because it refers to an individual's ability to adjust and change in response to their environment. This is important in developmental psychology as it reflects how well a person can navigate and interact with their surroundings. The other options are incorrect because they do not specifically address an individual's interaction with their environment. Learning Theory focuses on how people acquire new knowledge and skills, Conflict Resolution refers to how people handle conflicts and Cognitive Theory looks at how the mind processes information. While all of these may have some relation to a person's environment, they do not directly measure their ability to interact with it.
