\n Learning Goal: <\/b>I’m working on a literature writing question and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.<\/p>\n

This week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s discussion topic is Lars Tornstam\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s theory of gerotranscendence (1995, 2005). For your post, you are asked to use the information presented in the PPT titled \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Social and Developmental Theories of Aging\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd, as well as Kyle Kowalski’s blog post (click here<\/a> to access).<\/p>\n

Think of an older adult you know either from your personal life or a character from a favorite movie or book. With this person in mind, answer the questions posted below:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What behavior has this person displayed that may be explained by the theory of gerotranscendence? (Be specific in your answer and provide examples).<\/li>\n
  2. What behavior have you observed that may be viewed as an impediment to developing gerotranscendent traits?<\/li>\n
  3. In your opinion, do gerotranscendent traits have an effect on life satisfaction? Why or why not?<\/li>\n
  4. What differences and similarities do you see between this theory and some of the earlier aging theories discussed in your textbook? (Explain your position and provide rationale).<\/li>\n
  5. If you had to be the caregiver for a gerotrascendent person, what unique approaches would you use to create an environment of acceptance and promote further fostering of these traits?<\/li>\n
  6. Explain what connections you have been able to make between the concepts studied in this week’s assigned readings and the content presented in this blog<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
