Identify a topic or issue in human development that is relevant from adolescence to older
adulthood that you are interested in understanding in greater depth. Examples of topics
may include bullying in adolescence, the impact of divorce in older adulthood, and
parenting a child with special needs such as Autism. Write a literature review of that
topic using a minimum of 3 studies found in journals. (Not Review Articles). Relate
the topic or issue to three theories discussed in class or from the review articles and
explain how each theory could be applied to better understand your topic. For example,
how does attachment theory explain marital conflict?
The layout is entirely up to the student but may look like the following:
1. A) Introduction (.5-1 page)
2. B) Literature Review (2-3 pages)
3. C) Explanation of the issue in relation to 3 theories–(3-4 pages)
4. D) Directions for Future Research (1 page)
5. E) Conclusions (1-2 pages)
6. F) References (not included in the page count)
A minimum of three scholarly readings must be used to write this paper. Your paper
should be written in APA format and should be between 8-10 pages double-spaced in
length (excluding the title and reference page) 12 font. Scholarly readings means
peer reviewed journal articles. Absolutely no websites should be mentioned in your paper.
