Answer 1

About the Four Stages of Adaptation. The Four Stages of Adaptation model was developed by Dr. Nancy Miller, a psychotherapist and social worker. She worked with four moms over a period of five years and distilled their experiences into the book Nobody's Perfect: Living and Growing with Children Who Have Special Needs.

Answer 2

Adaptation is a process of getting familiarised with the world.
It's stages are as follows...
1.) ASSIMILATION...This means absorbing something into the present schemas.
2.) ACCOMODATION...This means changing the ways of of thinking and actions for managing objects.
3.) EQUILIBRATION/DISEQUILIBRATION....
Equilibration takes place when a child's schemas can deal successfully with the present information given through the assimilation.
