Textbook Passage: "Do you think that you've not changed very much since you were a young child? This view suggests continuity in development: once a person begins down a particular developmental pathfor example, toward friendliness or intelligencehe or she tends to stay on that path throughout life. Another viewthat development is discontinuousis illustrated when individuals change in some significant way. A common example is when toddlers go through what people refer to as the "Terrible Twos," seemingly going from being sweet and cooperative to assertive and demanding. In this view, people can change from one developmental path to another, perhaps several times in their lives. The continuity-discontinuity issue concerns whether a particular developmental phenomenon represents a smooth progression throughout life (continuity) or a series of abrupt shifts (discontinuity). Throughout this book, you will find examples of developmental changes that represent continuities and others that are discontinuities" (p.5).
