This week’s reading covers three chapters on development in late adulthood. Next week is the final class with the last quiz. To help narrow our focus, please define one of the following key terms in your own words and apply it to an older adult whom you know. No repeats, please! Key terms: life span; life expectancy; neurogenesis; explicit memory; implicit memory; episodic memory; semantic memory; source memory; prospective memory; major depression; dementia; Alzheimer disease; Parkinson’s disease; integrity vs. despair (from Erikson’s theory); possible selves; and, ageism. Please make sure that everyone contributes as these terms will be the focus of quiz questions. Please use the term: Major Depression
