PSYCH 504 Week 2 DQ 3 Watch the “Erik Erikson's Legacy” video in the Week Two Media Enhancements link. Think about your current psychosocial stage of development. Reread the stages of development and decide which one you believe is your current stage. Do not be led by Erikson´s suggestions of the corresponding chronological age. If there is a discrepancy between the stage you believe you are in and your chronological age, please discuss why this is so. For example, maybe you are in your early 20s but you believe you are in the generativity versus stagnation stage, which is associated with an older chronological age. Do you think this is because your development occurred earlier because of a specific factor in your life? Do you think that Erikson´s stages should be in a different order? Do you think that different chronological ages should be attached to Erikson´s stages? |

Positive psychologists believe in the power of optimism, positivity, enthusiasm, etc. in terms of improving quality of life (both physical and psychological). Martin Seligman was the founder of the positive psychology movement. It is hard not to think about positive psychology when we read Rogers' theory that is filled with adjectives such as acceptance, positive regard, support, optimism, etc. What do you think about the key tenets of Positive Psychology?

PSYCH 504 Week 5 DQ 3 Sex Differences We read in our textbook this week how the field of evolutionary psychology has tried to assess whether male and female brains are different. We learned that research studies have found contradictory evidence. If male and female brain differences do exist then they should be universal. Studies have demonstrated differences between cultures, which suggest that biology may not be the only determinant of sex differences. What do you think evolutionary psychology tells us about sex differences? What other factors besides biology may play a role in sex differences? |
