My life so far

Infancy:Emotional Development
Talking to my parents I was a fairly calm baby with a mild temperament, but I did show some separation protest early on when it came to my mother. -
Infancy:Emotional Development
Talking to my mother, and as I covered in a different category, I was a securely attached child, and would have mild protests when my mother left. -
Infancy:Physical Development
I started walking at about 11 months, my mother tells me that she coached me in that development after my first steps and used things like toys to get me to try and take more steps -
Sensory motor stage:Cognitive Development
Piaget's sensory motor stage applies to infancy within cognitive development. The aspect of this that applied to me that I could be come up with is object permmanance. My mother says certain toys I was fond of I would get upset leaving home without them thinking they were gone and I would no longer have them -
Early Childhood:Cognitive Development
My mother helped me with language acquisition by recasting my sentences and expanding my sentences with everyday things as I began to talk and continued to develop speaking and language. -
Early Childhood:Cognitive Development
At this age I went to daycare while my mom worked and played with toys and outside with other kids and I think most of my interests and actions during that period I would fit with the research done on concept formation. -
Preoperational stage:Cognitive development
The best story I was able to dig up for that particular phase of Piaget's stages of development was one involving animism. One day when the car wouldn't start I asked my mother if the car didn't feel well. -
Early Childhood:Emotional Development
Family and friends would describe my emotions as a child as outgoing, very much trying to capture the attention of everyone and everything, having a hard time focusing in class and not being a distraction. -
Childhood:Physical Development
during my childhood period I was very active. At that time I lived out in the country and video games weren't really a common activity so I got outside and played a lot as well as playing organized sports, tee-ball, soccer, ect. -
Concrete Operational Stage:Late Childhood
Related to my preoperational stage I can vividly remember a time in my later childhood my mother and I were in the McDonald's drive through and pulled forward to wait for out order and the car wouldn't crank, instantly I knew the car battery had died. -
Adolescence:Physical Development
This question about puberty is sort of one you have to take a guess on in the fact I really don't remember when my friends entered puberty. However, I would think most of us were around the same time. I think it may have effected the friendships at that age if not, as it's such an odd stage in development where kids don't think it's cool to be around other folks that are different so not being either early or late into puberty helps that. -
Middle Childhood:Cognitive Development
In junior high we had this "gifted" class called ACCENT I was selected for, I honestly done remember how or taking any sort of test but the concept of it was primarily based on creativity and critical thinking, and it was an experience for 2 years 7th and 8th grade that sort of showed me that side of intelligence as I wasn't too concerned with book intelligence. -
Adolescent:Physical Development
I sustained my physical activity through out my adolescence. I had classes in high school that kept my physical level up and towards the end of my adolescence I joined the Navy and obviously was required to keep that up and enjoyed the physical fitness. -
Graduate Highschool
-
Adolescence:Emotional Development
Thinking back on relationships with in my adolescence I think that Sternberg would have described those relationships as mostly passionate so it would fall under infatuation. -
Joined the Navy
-
Adulthood:Emotional Development
being married now I think Sternberg would describe my most important relationship as affectionate love. -
Married
-
Adulthood:Physical Development
I still have maintained my physical fitness into adulthood. It has gotten much harder with a wife and 6 month old to seemingly find the time to do so, and I usually would much rather be doing other things. Every now and then though I do enjoy going on runs and clearing my head. -
Adulthood:Emotional Development
As a happily married man, I would say my closest relationship now is with my wife and that it is a secure attachement. -
Birth of first child
-
Formal Operational Stage: Cognitive Development
I think the best example i have is being able to understand how things work and assemble or change things in my head when faced with a challenge. A buddy of mine had a new deer stand the other day with 30 pieces or so, a pile of bolts and nuts, and we all just put it together. We were able to look at the pieces and visualize how it made a functional whole.
