Define and provide some general information about the Physical and Cognitive Development in Early Adulthood.

Then describe an example of that topic in action, that you have experienced in your own early adulthood, that you've observed in other adults, or that you anticipate as you look ahead. Explain why you feel that your example is well-explained (or not) by the theory or information you included.

You might begin by thinking about what it means to "become an adult." Jeffrey Arnett (as cited in Santrock, 2020, p. 306) has conducted research on "emerging adulthood," what could be conceptualized as a new life stage ranging from age 18-25. Most people perceive that their adolescence, with its puberty, idealistic thinking, and peer pressure, ended around age 18. However, they feel like adulthood proper didn't start until significantly later. In this video, Arnett describes what in the world has changed to produce this cultural shift.
