To address this, it will be necessary to watch the videos and read the article. Describe the main ideas in Strawbridge reflecting how you plan to talk about them.

Which ideas discussed so far in class are relevant to this main idea?  Are these ideas interesting?  Could you expand on them in a way that would make for an interesting read?  How do you plan to do that ((Explain and discuss thoroughly – be clear about why these are connected to Successful Aging).
a. NOTE: You could look for a relevant research article on this topic..
b. NOTE: There are topics that are NOT relevant – brain aging, any physical changes — stay close to the topic here.  If you are really stretching it is probably not related.

There are many psychological processes associated with perceiving one’s aging as positive / successful. (Remember psychological processes can be coping or personality like optimism/pessimism, emotion regulation, letting go of negative stuff, and so on.) Is there one of these processes that you can clearly describe and clearly explain how it leads older adults to perceive their aging as positive even though they are managing late life challenges (e.g., disease). So, adults are coping with late life challenges in psychologically adaptive ways.  Explain how that works from at least one of these perspectives. 

Take the idea in #3 and explain it in a different way.  Remember human behavior is complex, and even though psychologists prefer describing the most typical behaviors – there is a lot of variability.  Embrace that variability here.  Maybe you like this idea better than the one in #3.

So, we take Strawbridge’s findings and we discuss all kinds of implications.  This may lead you to identify another study that could look at the psychological processes you are describing. A “future study” — one that has not been done.  Describe this study – the important variables – the sample – and what it might tell us.

Outline your plans – both the timeline and a little bit about the content.  For example — This Friday I plan to reread Strawbridge and write the paragraphs about their study.  On Saturday, I plan to discuss the findings (focus on the main ones please, or ideas relevant to the main ones).  On Sunday, I plan to edit all of this and make up my mind aout what ideas I am going to develop.
