• Statement I is false and Statement II is true.

• Both Statements I and II are true.

• Both Statements I and II are false.

Answer 1

Both Statements I and II are false.

Explanation: 

The “gang age” (late childhood, 7–11 years) is when children shift focus to peers, cluster around friends and engage in group activities rather than preferring solitude. They also develop social roles, cooperation, leadership and take responsibilities within their peer groups, so it is not characterized by avoiding roles or responsibilities.
