HAVIGHURST'S DEVELOPMENTAL
TASK DURING THE LIFE SPAN
Robert J Havighurst elaborated on the Developmental Task
Theory in the most systematic and extensive manner. His main
assertion is that development is continuous throughout inter life span,
occurring in stages, where the individual moves from one stage to the
next by means by successful resolution of problems or performance of
developmental tasks. This tasks are those that typically encountered by
most people in the culture where the individual belongs.
Havigshurst proposed a Bio psychosocial model of development,
wherein the developmental task at each stage are influence by the
individuals Biology ( Physiological maturation and genetic make
up), His psychology ( Personal Values and Goals) and Sociology
( specific culture to which the individual belongs)

REFLECTION:
In this module it is more on about Developmental stages. We’ve
learned in this module about the task that we already completed
and the tasks that we are going to do from Infancy and early
Childhood to Later Maturity, But because we’re just in the
Adolescence stage, in this module it taught as also to prepare what
we are going to do or task that we will be encountered as we go on
to the next stage of our lives.
