Human Development focuses on human
growth and changes across the lifespan, including physical, cognitive, social, intellectual, perceptual, personality and emotional growth. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGES
The study of human developmental stages is
essential to understanding how humans learn, mature, and adapt. Throughout their lives, humans go through various stages of development. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGES
The human being is either in a state of growth
or decline, but either condition imparts change. Some aspects of our life change very little over time, are consistent. Other aspects change dramatically. By understanding these changes, we can better respond and plan ahead effectively. DEVELOPM ENTAL STAGES HAVIGHURST’S DEVELOPMENTAL TASKS DURING THE LIFE SPAN
Robert J. Havighurst elaborated on the Developmental
Tasks Theory in the most systematic and extensive manner. His main assertion is that development is continuous throughout the entire lifespan, occurring in stages, where the individual moves from one stage to the next by means of successful resolution of problems or performance of developmental tasks. HAVIGHURST’S DEVELOPMENTAL TASKS DURING THE LIFE SPAN
These tasks are those that are typically encountered by
most people in the culture where the individual belongs. If the person successfully accomplishes and masters the developmental task, he feels pride and satisfaction, and consequently earns his community or society’s approval. This success provides a sound foundation which allows the individual to accomplish tasks to be encountered at later stages. HAVIGHURST’S DEVELOPMENTAL TASKS DURING THE LIFE SPAN
Conversely, if the individual is not successful at
accomplishing a task, he is unhappy and is not accorded the desired approval by society, resulting in the subsequent experience of difficulty when faced with succeeding developmental tasks. This theory presents the individual as an active learner who continually interacts with a similarly active social environment. HAVIGHURST’S DEVELOPMENTAL TASKS DURING THE LIFE SPAN
Havighurst proposed a bio psychosocial model of
development, wherein the developmental tasks at each stage are influenced by the individual’s biology (physiological maturation and genetic makeup), his psychology (personal values and goals) and sociology (specific culture to which the individual belongs).

Encouragement is the key ingredient for improving your
relationships with others. It is the single most important skill necessary for getting along with others—so important that the lack of it could be considered the primary cause of conflict and misbehavior. Encouragement develops a person’s psychological hardiness and social interest. Encouragement is the lifeblood of a relationship and yet, this simple concept is often very hard to put into practice. Most common ways of discouragement:
1. High standards for others to meet because one is overly
ambitious. 2. Focuses on mistakes as a way to motivate change or improved behavior. 3. Make constant comparisons (e.g., self to others, siblings to one another) 4. Automatically gives negative spin to the actions of others. 5. Dominates others by being overly helpful, implying that they are unable to it as well. The power of Personal Declarations by: Dr. Emily De Carlo
Declarations are meant to encourage a person to take
control of the influences in their lives. They serve as suggestions as to what positive things you can speak about your own life instead of accepting whatever has been said about them in the past.
