life doesnt always

October 22, 2020 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), Psychology and Education

Life does not always go as planned, and as a person ages into adult and middle adulthood those unexpected life changes can be significantly disruptive. As our readings described, there are unexpected changes (non-normative life events) that influence our lives, but there are also the more silent changes that occur over time. These changes are cumulative and are based on our lifestyle.

Using sources such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, research some information on the leading causes of death related to lifestyle choices. Explain some of the factors that may influence choices regarding lifestyle. Also, research some ways in which individuals can improve their lifestyle, especially during adulthood.

Post your response to the Discussion Area by the due date assigned. Respond to at least two posts by the end of the week.

Justify your answers with appropriate reasoning and research from your text and course readings.
