Theories of Erikson, Vaillant, and Levinson
Theories of Erikson, Vaillant, and Levinson
using the theories of Erikson, Vaillant, and Levinson, create a set
of 15 questions related to the socioemotional, physical, and cognitive
development of middle-aged people.
Submit the 15 interview questions only for preapproval to the instructor by the end of Day 2 of Module 7.
Using your questions, interview two middle-aged people (they may be
your parents, relatives, or friends). Note: American Psychological
Association (APA) ethical guidelines indicate that interviewees have the
right to refuse to answer any question posed to them by an interviewer.
Please ensure that your interviewees are aware of this and do not force
an answer where the opportunity to reply has been refused.
From your interviews, write an essay of 1,000-1,500 words in which you
relate your findings. Where are your interviewees in relation to the
development stages of Erikson, Vaillant, Levinson, and Peck? Explain
your rationale for placing the interviewees as you did.
