PSY 5052 DEVELOPMENTAL PSYC: ADULTHOOD AND AGING

After adolescence, we continue to develop as an adaptive response to continuous changes in life circumstances. We will explore the current theories about adult development and then proceed to examine what current research can tell us about: adults' capabilities, changes in these capabilities that occur over time, influences of the environment on our characteristics, and how we influence our own environments and development. In addition, we will explore what is known about continuities between childhood/adolescence and adulthood. Prerequisite: PSY.2002: Developmental Psychology: Early through Late Adolescence.
