Transitions in Middle Adulthood Erikson’s seventh developmental stage is middle adulthood, encompassing the ages from 40 to 65. These years are often full of transitions. Physical transitions Mental transitions Emotional transitions Social transitions

Physical Transitions Middle Adulthood People in middle adulthood experience physical changes as their bodies begin to age. Skin loses its elasticity, the functioning of the body’s organs slows, and the body’s immune system becomes less effective. Females experience menopause around ages 45 to 55.

Mental Transitions Middle Adulthood Just as exercise strengthens the muscles, mental activities strengthen the brain. Solving puzzles, reading, and playing board games provide mental stimulation. An adult who “exercises” his or her brain remains mentally active. People reach middle adulthood with a great deal of knowledge and experience, which they can use to pursue new interests.

Emotional Transitions Middle Adulthood Emotional Transitions The midlife crisis for some individuals results from questions and concerns about: Having met their goals. Feeling loved and valued. Having made a positive difference in the lives of others. Keeping the health triangle in balance and continuing to set goals along the way will help people avoid these concerns.

Social Transitions Middle Adulthood Many adults of this age are faced with the death of a parent or the empty-nest syndrome with their children growing up and leaving home. People who maintain healthy relationships with family and friends have less difficulty adjusting to these changes. For many, this is a time to apply their talents and life experience to community and social programs.

Goals of Older Adults Late Adulthood Erikson’s final stage of development, late adulthood, occurs after age 65. One of the goals of people at this stage is to look at life with satisfaction and a sense of fulfillment. Older adults evaluate the events of their lives and their achievements. If they have lived their lives with integrity, they are likely to be satisfied.

Expanding Opportunities in Late Adulthood Many adults look forward to retirement so that they can pursue new interests. Others choose to continue to work or even change careers. For many, volunteering is another way of staying active.

Public Health Policies and Programs for Older Adults Late Adulthood Public Health Policies and Programs for Older Adults The government offers Medicare to people 65 years of age and older and Medicaid to people with low incomes and limited resources. Many workers must plan for their own retirement with personal or company-run long-term savings plans. Through use of these funds in conjunction with Social Security benefits, the poverty rate for older adults has been reduced.
