UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B and C correctly define the cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains as mental, attitudinal and physical skill areas. Statement E is also true because objectives can be framed across domains to promote balanced development. Statement D is false since focusing only on cognitive outcomes ignores attitudinal and skill aspects of holistic education. Hence, A, B, C and E only is the correct combination of statements.

Option A:
Option A includes A, B and C but omits E, overlooking the important point that objectives can and should be distributed across domains for balance. Since E is also correct, A, B and C only is incomplete.

Option B:
Option B groups B, C and E, leaving out A, which provides the central idea of cognitive objectives. Without A, the account of domains is not comprehensive, so B, C and E only cannot be accepted.

Option C:
Option C brings together A, B, C and E, which together describe the domains and the possibility of integrating them in planning. It correctly excludes D, which claims cognitive objectives alone are sufficient. Therefore, this is the correct option.

Option D:
Option D selects A, C and E, but omits B, ignoring the affective domain, which is a key part of the tripartite classification. As a result, A, C and E only does not fully represent the domains.
