Question 1

The text defines the confusion, forgetfulness, and personality changes associated with old age as:
◦ dementia
◦ psychosis
◦ depression
◦ neurosis

Question 2

The text suggests that older adulthood is best thought of as consisting of 4 distinct age-related periods. Why is older adulthood, but not other stages of development, divided into "substages"?
◦ This is the fastest growing part of the U. S. population.
◦ Older adults differ more dramatically from each other than do people in other age groups.
◦ Older adults are mostly White, so they generally are not divided into racial/ethnic categories, making age the best way to divide them into groups.
◦ Everyone in older adulthood is pretty much alike in most regards, so they need to be divided into different age groups so they can be studied more accurately.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
