Adult development

There are seven stages a human moves through during his or her life span. These stages are infancy, early childhood, middle childhood, adolescence, early adulthood, middle adulthood and old age.

Infancy (Developmental stage)

  </ref>Infancy is recognized as the stage of life from a human 's birth up until he or she learns how to speak: generally until the age of one or two. During this stage, the child transitions from a dependent toddler to a relatively active child; he or she is typically able to crawl, roll over and walk. In terms of physical development, the stage of infancy witnesses the most growth. Also during infancy the child gains a sense of trust when its caregivers provide affection and reliability.

Adult development: can be defined as the changes that occur within an adult human's body. The pattern of development is the product of Physical processes which are changes in an individual's biological nature. It is also known as how we change over time. Secondly, our cognitive processes which are changes in an individual's thinking, intelligence and language. Thirdly, socio-emotional processes which is how we change in terms of emotions, and individual relationships. The major theme of adulthood is independence. 

Early adulthood begins in late teens/ early 20's and lasts through the 30's. Early adulthood is often viewed as a time of establishing personal and economic independence, developing a career, selecting a mate, starting a family, and possibly learning to live with someone in an intimate way. Additionally, most adults reach their peak physical development and are healthiest during their 20's. In fact, 95.8% of young adults believe that they were physically fit and in good health. Young adults rarely recognize that eating habits, heavy drinking, and smoking in in early adulthood can impair health as they age.

Whereas, middle adulthood is the period from age 40 to about 60 years of age. Middle adulthood is a time of expanding personal and social involvement, assisting the next generation in becoming a competent, mature individual. The themes of responsibility and experience are strongly shown at this stage. Also, at this stage people tend to reach and maintain their satisfaction within a career because they have had already gone through other careers for the experience and are certain with the current one. 

Late adulthood is the period that begins in the 60's and lasts until death. Late adulthood is often viewed as a time of adjusting to retirement, where people tend to get weaker, and people often identify new social roles at this stage. Some physical changes in middle adulthood includes changes in appearance. for instance, individuals tend to look shorter as a result of poor posture or scoliosis. Fundamentally, people tend to become more concerned about their health in their late 40's. Late adulthood is the fastest growing segment of the population. [1]

Reverted your edit at Template:Citation needed/doc

I've reverted your edit to Template:Citation needed/doc which I assume you've done by mistake. I've seen that you've made similar edits to this page in the past. Please, be more careful! Attomir (talk) 20:31, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Help me!

How to CORRECTLY add the necessary references. for instance, i read somewhere that you can put {{PD-self}} in the article that I want to publish. however, i'm getting some issues with my references so i need help please thank you. This is hindering my article from getting posted on wikipedia so that it can be graded. i need help. much appreciated. thank you

Have you taken a look at Help:Referencing for beginners? That page explains how to easily create nicely formatted footnotes for your references, with how-to videos. For example, your draft's reference 2 would look like this:

The {{pd-self}} tag has nothing to do with references; it is a copyright tag for images. It specifies that an image is your own work and that you release it into the public domain, giving up all copyright claims.

That said, Draft:Adult Development was declined for reasons unrelated to either reference formatting or copyright but rather because we already have an article that covers that topic, namely development of the human body, and we don't need two articles on the same topic.

Response

Hi! Ian (Wiki Ed) is actually your content expert for the class - here are some thoughts I have offhand though:

• This needs more sourcing to back up the claims, as it's all sourced with only one citation. The source you have is good, but more sourcing would likely be better.
• I'm kind of confused where this is meant to go - there's already an article on adult development and this looks to be fairly general.
• Be careful of writing style - you want to make sure that you avoid a casual, essay/response type tone. Things like "in fact" are more conversational than encyclopedic, for example, so it's good to be careful since some things may not seem like it would pose a style problem at first sight.

I hope this helps - Ian can give you more in-depth responses. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:47, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

Short Term Memory Loss

Short term memory loss is the process of forgetting things that recently happened. Additionally, anything that is in the memory for 15-30 seconds is considered Short Term Memory. For example, temporarily memorizing a phone number until you get the chance to write it down. A Study by George A. Miller (1956) illustrated that the time limit of the memory for normal adults is 7 chunks of information when it is first presented, however, some people have as much as 9 and others have as few as 5 chunks of information. Fundamentally, some examples of short term memory loss are misplacing common objects such as keys, not being able to think of a right word and walking into a room and not remembering why you are there. Many people suffer from Short Term Memory Loss Sleep Apnea is a major cause of Short Term Memory Loss. Sleep Apnea is a sleeping disorder where breathing temporarily stops during sleep. Some symptoms of sleep Apnea are morning headaches and daytime fatigue. One of the reasons sleep apnea affects the memory is because during the night, the brain is briefly deprived of oxygen and lack of oxygen eventually impacts the function of the brain and memory. Also, medications can clog the memory and cause Short Term Memory Loss. Examples of such medications are sleep-aids, anti-anxiety medications, and pain killers. Stress, anxiety, and depression can lead to short term memory loss. Some necessary steps to help prevent Short Term Memory Loss are by getting the adequate amount of sleep. Sufficient sleep promotes healthy brain function. Exercising and avoiding unnecessary medications can reduce the chances of experiencing Short Term Memory Loss.
