PSY 2305 Growth & Development Planning Worksheet

OVERVIEW
In this assignment, you will be completing a developmental assessment of a specific person and
comparing them to established norms, developmental milestones, and theories you have learned
about in this course.
Then you will provide comparisons between the norms and your observations of your participant,
determine which developmental tasks have been met and unmet, and suggest methods to assist in the
healthy development of an unmet or delayed topic area discussed in the paper.
The assessment is not a chronological lifespan report of development from the viewpoint of a single
theorist. It should focus on the subject’s current period of life utilizing multiple theories. However, if
the subject has unmet tasks, you can examine earlier periods of life influential to the delay.
Important note: This guide was created to help you guide and plan the organizational structure of
your paper. You will not submit this document; you are tasked with submitting an APA-formatted
paper for this assignment. Make sure you carefully read the assignment instructions and consult the
grading rubric for all requirements.
