Initial Post Instructions
For the initial post, respond to one of the following options:
Option : As you have found, lifespan development research has several renowned theorists who attempted to explain human be
havior with different theories. Many people would argue that some theories explain human behavior, cognition, and socioemotional development better than others. After your review of the theories, which theory do you think best explains your development thus far and why?
Examples:
EriksonÂ’s theory
FreudÂ’s theory
BanduraÂ’s theory
PiagetÂ’s theory
Option 2: There is a large body of research that has been conducted on expectant mothers, and many conclusions have been drawn about what is and isn’t healthy for their unborn babies. Based on these results, doctors and parents have concerns about biological and environmental factors that we know to be “teratogens.” After reading the lessons for this week, carefully choose a teratogen that you feel is often ignored but that poses a significant risk to prenatal development. How does this teratogen impact the fetus? Why it is ignored? What should be done to address it?
