Journal prompt: Moral development
• Professor Higgins has been giving unfair quizzes all semester. You have failed a few and several of your friends are in danger of failing the class due to poor quiz performance. His quiz items simply do not correlate well with what was presented in class or what was in the book. You stop by his office during his office hours to discuss a problem you have understanding a particular theory. He is not there, but the door is wide open, and sitting on his desk is a stack of tomorrow’s quiz. You know that you can improve both your performance on the quiz and perhaps helps several of your friends pass the class if you get a look at it.

Adulthood’s Ages and Stages
Psychologists doubt that adults pass through an orderly sequence of age-bound stages. Mid-life crises at 40 are less likely to occur than crises triggered by major events (divorce, new marriage).
Neuroticism scores, 10,000 subjects(McCrae & Costa, 1996).
26
Middle Adulthood
Muscular strength, reaction time, sensory abilities and cardiac output begin to decline after the mid-twenties. Around age 50, women go through menopause, and men experience decreased levels of hormones and fertility.
