Preview 4 out of 107 pages

Prepare for developmental psychology coursework with this study resource for Discovering the Life Span, 4th Edition by Robert S. Feldman. This 2026 study listing is designed to support revision of key concepts in human growth and development from conception through late adulthood. Topics include physical, cognitive, social, and personality development across the lifespan, childhood development, adolescence, adulthood, aging, and end-of-life issues. Use practice questions and review materials to reinforce textbook concepts, identify knowledge gaps, and prepare for quizzes, assignments, and examinations. Suitable for students taking introductory psychology, lifespan development, and human development courses, this resource can complement textbook reading, lecture notes, and independent study. The fourth edition was published by Pearson in 2017; “2026” refers to the study listing update, not a new textbook edition. Confirm the contents and edition of any test-bank file before purchase.
