Chapter 7 of the course textbook examines theories of cognitive development during
adolescence and later adulthood. For this assignment, refer to the textbook and two
peer-reviewed journal articles to compare and contrast the theories and models of two
cognitive theorists with respect these stages of human development.
In your paper must respond to the following:
1) Briefly summarize the main elements of each theorist’s analysis of cognitive
development during the transition from adolescence to early adulthood.
2) Compare and contrast the two approaches to this critical and difficult stage of
development, illustrating in what ways, and with respect to what issues, each
approach provides insights and/or exhibits shortcomings.
3) Compare and contrast cognitive development during adolescence versus early
adulthood, evaluating whether and to what extent one or the other stage is more
or less amenable to one of the two frameworks examined.
4) Be sure to integrate terms and research associated with major cognitive theories
into your analysis such as egocentrism, inductive reasoning, or fluid/crystalized
intelligence.
Your paper should be 1600 words in length and cite and integrate at least two peer-
reviewed journal articles.
