Part I – Developmental Stages

For each developmental domain, physical, cognitive, and social, identify two major changes or challenges associated with Adult development.

Part II – Developmental Gaps

Respond to the following in at least 150 words:

Demonstrate the interdependence of all the areas of development (physical, cognitive, and social) by imagining a persons’ behavior with one area missing. Create a scenario with an area of development lacking and describe the possible results. You may focus on a specific age or imagine how a later age would be affected by the lack of an area during an earlier age (e.g., how a lack of cognitive development during infancy would affect the behavior of an adult).
