Core areas of coverage include biological health, cognitive abilities, and evolving social relationships. The presentation also examines how individuals manage everyday stress, employ coping strategies, and navigate personal transitions across the lifespan.
Drawing on large longitudinal investigations alongside studies of diverse populations, the text demonstrates how demographic and cultural factors shape individual growth. The volume is designed for academic courses in adulthood, aging, and the psychology of aging.
