    Study Notes

    Conservation and Psychosocial Development

    • Children develop at different rates, leading to frustration and limited understanding of consequences.
    • Children begin to master conservation, recognizing that object properties remain constant despite changes in appearance and position.
    • Erickson's industry vs. inferiority stage: children develop self-concept, fear failure, and feel left out.

    Teaching Strategies

    • Include children in the learning process, using single, logical terms and observing their reactions.
    • Parents should be taught to foster independence, gearing towards normal development.
    • Use audiovisual aids, clarify terminology, and provide opportunities for privacy.

    Adolescence (12-19 years old)

    • Use adjunct instructional tools, clarify terminology, and share decision-making with adolescents.
    • Approach them with respect, expecting some negative responses, and avoid confrontation.

    Long-Term Learning

    • Accept adolescents' personal fable and imaginary audience as valid, acknowledging their feelings.
    • Allow them to test their own convictions and promote positive health actions in daily life.

    Developmental Stages of Adulthood

    Andragogy (Adult Learning)

    • Knowles' framework assumes adults are self-directed, autonomous, and problem-centered learners.
    • Adults accumulate experiences, and learning is based on social roles and tasks.
    • Adults need structure, clear guidance, and concise information despite being autonomous.

    Young Adulthood (20-40 years old)

    • Establish long-term relationships, decide on occupations, and cope with stress.
    • Physical abilities peak, cognitive capacity is fully developed, and intimacy vs. isolation is a psychosocial concern.

    Teaching Strategies for Older Adults

    • Understand older adults' development tasks, coping mechanisms, and meaning of life.
    • Use reminiscing to establish therapeutic relationships, talking about their life and abilities.
    • Accommodate physical needs, such as bright lighting, large print, and minimal noise.

    Helpful Tips for Older Adults

    • Eliminate extraneous noise, speak slowly, and keep sessions short with frequent breaks.
    • Be aware of medication effects, avoid patronizing, and focus on relevant information.
    • Allow time for processing and reacting, and summarize with time for questions.
