Explanation: What are developmental tasks? They are things or events that needs to happen in the life of an individual at a particular stage to complete the growth to maturity stage.

There are different developmental tasks for each growth stage in life. Mainly we are focusing on the Middle adulthood stage.

The developmental tasks for the middle adulthood stage are:

1. A shift of attention from self to the future generations

2. Physical changes such as wrinkles, decline in vision, menopause in women, dry skin etc.

3. Realisation of the fact that children are growing to become independent.

4. looking back to evaluate ones achievements and accomplishments.
