Question: Consider the theory that you proposed on screen 5 for how brain development in middle adulthood can affect a person’s life. Explain how accurate your theory may or may not have been based on what you learned in the rest of the activity.
Answer feedback: Middle adulthood is a time when people describe improvement in many areas of life — greater knowledge, better relationships, more satisfying careers, or newfound leisure activities. During this age, there are signs of senescence in the brain, including the thinning of gray and white matter. However, the reduction in the number of synapses (in gray matter) acts to fine-tuning the neural circuits. This fine tuning may lead to a greater efficiency in information processing, and this may explain some of the improvements described by those between ages 30 and 65.
Explanation / Answer
The middle age stage the ages between 30 and 65 is a stage of gains and loss with regard to the cognitive abilities. The memorization skills and perceptual abilities may be on decline during this stage, but, a middle-aged mind is calmer, less neurotic, and have better able to sort out the social situations. The middle-aged brain is better at spatial reasoning, abstract reasoning, simple mathematical operations, and language skills than before. This helps the middle aged individuals to incorporate their experiences and knowledge, while critical thinking and reach accurate solutions than before. Thus, the middle aged individuals have better information processing abilities, and critical thinking skills, though they may feel slower and duller than their youth stage.
