Life-Span Perspective

The Life-Span Perspective is an approach that views human development as a continuous process throughout all stages of life, from birth to old age. It emphasizes that development is shaped by a mix of biological, psychological, and social factors, and that change can happen at any age. This perspective recognizes that experiences, choices, and environments influence growth and that each stage of life offers unique opportunities and challenges. Overall, it encourages understanding development as a lifelong journey rather than just early childhood or adulthood.
