Question

With regard in nature-nurture, continuity-discontinuity and change stability controversies, the wiser stand is

Answer 1

Answer:

Two of the more highly debated issues in life‐span development psychology today are continuity versus discontinuity and nature versus nurture.

At the heart of the continuity versus discontinuity debate lies the question of whether development is solely and evenly continuous, or whether it is marked by age‐specific periods. Developmentalists who advocate the continuous model describe development as a relatively smooth process, without sharp or distinct stages, through which an individual must pass. Meanwhile, supporters of the discontinuous model describe development as a series of discrete stages, each of which is characterized by at least one task that an individual must accomplish before progressing to the next stage. For example, Freud, in his stage model of psychosexual development, theorized that children systematically move through oral, anal, phallic, and latency stages before reaching mature adult sexuality in the genital stage. Theories of human development, according to Freud and Erikson, appear in Table . Table shows Piaget's stages of cognitive development, and Table outlines Levinson's stages of passage from age 17 to 65 and over.

Answer 2

Answer:

What is the most sensible stance in the debates over nature vs. nurture, continuity vs. discontinuity, change vs. stability? Nurture-teacher is the more wise position.

Explanation:

• The nature-nurture divide debate about which factors—heredity or environment—have a greater impact on a person's IQ, behaviour, and other traits.
• Genetic inheritance and other biological elements impact nature, which is what we refer to as pre-wiring. Most people think of nurture as the effect of outside forces after conception.
• Nature generally examines how physical factors like neurotransmitters and genome sequencing affect a child's development, whereas nurture focuses on things like peer pressure and social impacts.

The English Victorian polymath Francis Galton originally used the phrase "nature versus nurture" in a discussion of how environment and heredity interact in the middle of the 1800s.
