Q Hi, For this week, find an article from the library website in PsycARTICLES that pertains to coping and a developmental stage. In Course Documents under the Discussion Board Folder, there is an article to help you understand how to find an article from the library website. Pick a stage of development in which you are interested (e.g. infancy, early childhood,adolescence, adulthood etc) . You can type in coping and childhood, adolescence, adulthood or old age, as well as any other terms you wish to use for a developmental stage (I tried these terms and a lot of articles appeared). Look on page 64 of your book and you will see the developmental stages and developmental tasks. Read the developmental tasks for the stage you have chosen and talk about how: 1. they do or do not make sense to you based on people that you know of in this stage 2. the coping process for this stage reviewed in the article. Some stages are divided into 2 or 3 parts, so you can read the age ranges of the participants in the study and see what in what stage they belong. Remember that your post should add something unique, so if you see that someone has posted about an article that you wanted to talk about, find another article or add something detailed and unique about that article. Your posts should reflect your deep level of thought into the subject and a thorough and comprehensive coverage of the subject. Don't forget to indicate the articles title, journal, pages, author(s) and date.
