Personality stabilisation in the family refers to which of the following?

• A. Economic production
• B. Educational instruction to children
• C. Emotional support and reassurance for adults
• D. Tax collection

Answer: (C)

The idea here is that the family provides a emotional safety net for adults, helping to keep their personalities steady. In this view, the home supports and soothes adults, offering reassurance and care after the stresses of work and public life. That emotional buffering helps adults stay psychologically balanced so they can perform their other social roles effectively. So the best choice is emotional support and reassurance for adults.

Economic production and educating children are important family functions too, but they relate to different aspects (provision and primary socialisation). Tax collection isn’t a function of the family at all.
