If concrete operations are mental actions on objects (tangible things and events), formal operations are mental actions on ideas. Thus, the adolescent who acquires formal operations can mentally juggle and think logically about ideas, which cannot be seen, heard, tasted, smelled, or touched. It also involves adopting a more systematic and scientific approach to problem solving.(Sigelman & Rider, 220. 2019)]]> 2020-02-07 01:20:48 UTC https://padlet.com/lwhite1009/1rm6rsfeklj8/wish/441939206 Emergence of Abstract Thought mwilkins0916 https://padlet.com/lwhite1009/1rm6rsfeklj8/wish/441939324 Dani is 18 and is no longer beginning the formal operations stage, but uses abstract thoughts in her everyday life. Because Dani see's a therapist on a regular basis, about 2 times a week, she thrives at problem solving. She also uses hypothetical-deductive reasoning quite often as well, seeing how she is majoring in Biology. (Sigelman & Rider, 220, 2019)]]> 2020-02-07 01:21:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lwhite1009/1rm6rsfeklj8/wish/441939324 Strategies mwilkins0916 https://padlet.com/lwhite1009/1rm6rsfeklj8/wish/441939466 At this point in her life Dani has mastered the memory stages of elaboration, has developed and refined her advanced learning and memory strategies highly relevant to school learning, makes more deliberate use of strategies, and can recall more now that she is going into early adulthood.

A balance of exploration and attachment is the key to successful development at this age. (Sigelman & Rider, 454, 2019)
Because of her lack of parents growing up, Dani tended to gravitate more towards her peers. Specifically, her friend Jennifer. They have been friends since they were seven years old with Jennifer and her family thinking of Jennifer as though she was apart of their family. They played Volleyball together, they were in choir, and both were in STEM. They did everything together. Unfortunately, Jennifer died when they were both 16. (Sigelman & Rider, 454, 2019)

Jennifer was born on January 1st, 2002, in Los Angeles, to parents John Smith Jr. and Julia Smith. A quiet, studious child, Jennifer was known by his family and friends to be sharp, smart, and solitary. "She loved reading anything—comic books, textbooks, rhetoric—anything," said his mother, Julia. "He could debate Descartes with me. He was a special little boy." The budding philosopher was also a member of the chess team at East Elementary School, and had a mind for trivia. He liked to play strategy games with his friends and aspired to one day design board games.

Jennifer was born by her parents, John and Julia, her paternal grandparents, Carlos and Kathrine Smith; her maternal grandparents, Jonah and Donna Miller; her aunt and uncle, Henry and Kate Hill; her cousins, Joshua and Derek Hill; her best friend, Dani Moorbrooks. 

Funeral services will take place at the Seventh Day Adventist Church in Los Angeles, CA on January 31, 2018, 5:00 p.m. All are invited. Flowers and donations are respectfully declined.

She did not engage in "risky intercourse", vandalism, and other law-breaking behavior. She does not drink and waited until the age of 18 to smoke marajuana. For the most part Dani has been secure in her bodily image growing up. She was diagnosed with depression after her friend, Jennifer, died. As said earlier, she does not take medication, but sees a doctor regularly to ease her depression and keep it at bay. Although her therapist does believe that her recreational use of marajuana was started to cope with the death of her best friend.
