Some thoughts about the development in adulthood. /part 8/
Changes in the functions of intelligence - Shine periods. The essence of the cognitive development of the elderly consists in changing the structure of cognitive abilities and their flexibility. Developments mainly in youth are related to the formation and development of the I-concept, which passes through three stages, which are on the one hand independent, but on the other they are altered by the influence of different circumstances and interactions in society and culture. "I"as an individual - three basic concepts - identity, proximity, generability / generation, production.
According to Eriksson, the main task of joy is to establish identity. It is a continuous process not only characteristic of youth. Fully devoted to their work part of their identity as "working". Another part - with the formation of proximity in the family, in the collective. And the third - inherentness is the evaluation of the experience and the feeling of it - of the satisfaction or not of the assigned tasks and how they are achieved, from the trace left behind - in a professional or family aspect 2. A family member - Family tasks, responsibilities, mutual assistance are established. Man embarks on this process of individualization gradually, and not suddenly, the separation from the parents. Young people here aspire to 4 types of independence: Emotional - less and less dependent on parents, b. receive maintenance and leverage from their partner;
Attitudes among young people are usually very different from those of their parents; Functional / financial / - the ability to sustain themselves; Conflict - Separation from parents is not associated with a sense of guilt, betrayal of them. Not all young people need to achieve these independence. As a worker - work is an important factor in human life - determines status, income, prestige, social contacts, etc. Work is a source of income, a chance to express creativity, a high self-esteem, for some even - is intoxication, the meaning for everyone is different. Factors that motivate a person to do a job: - Inner - special - What are the requirements of the job itself and what specific features are needed to accomplish it; - external - what are the wages, the comfort, the working hours, the colleagues, the opportunities to rise in the service hierarchy. The development of the personality during the ages is also characterized by love - Stenberg creates a three component love theory.
From how components are combined, Stenberg defines the type of love: intimacy - a sense of connection to one another, sympathy, closeness, common interests, sharing / thoughts, feelings, belongings. A decisive factor in turning relationships into love. It can cause passion, but it can also appear after it; passion - physical attraction and sexual intercourse; Decisions / Obligations - the decision is short-lived - you decide that you love someone, and the long-term aspect is mandatory - to preserve this love in some form. It was mentioned that the absent time for the development of man's psyche is childhood.
