ISSUES ON PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

Each of us has own informal way of looking at our own and other people’s development.
These paradigms of human development while obviously lacking in scholastic vigor, provide us with a
conceptual framework for understanding ourselves and others. Scholars have come up with their
own model of human development. Back up by solid research, they take stand on issues on human
development.

Choose your topic for debate:

1. ______________________________ Nature versus Nurture _____________________________

Which has a more significant influence on human development? Nature or nurture?

2. ______________________________ Continuity versus Discontinuity _______________________

Does development involve gradual, cumulative change (continuity) or distinct changes

(discontinuity)?

3. ______________________________ Stability versus change ______________________________

Is development best described as involving stability or as involving change? Are we what our first
experiences has made of us or do we develop into someone different from who we
were vat an earlier point in development?
