I have edited the page on Adult development. I plan to use more sources and expand on the article in hopes of making it more appealing and more educaitonal. I have already discussed two psychologist who have done studies on adult development and what conclusions they have come to. Below are some of the contributions that I have made this far.

Studies are currently underway concerning adult development by Robert J. Waldinger and George Eman Vaillant at The Department of Psychiatry, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School.Professor Robert J. Waldinger, from Boston Massachusetts, is studying a group of men who have been a part of an elaborate study for 67 years. The intention is to examine early life predictors of healthy or unhealthy aging and relationships late in life.[1] George E. Vaillant, who has been the Director of the Study of Adult Development at the Harvard University Health Service for the last thirty five years has published is work in his books Adaptation to Life, 1977, The Wisdom of The Ego, 1993, and The Natural History of Alcoholism-Revisited, 1995. [1]. He charted adult development in 824 men and women their recovery process of schizophrenia, heroin addiction, alcoholism, and personality disorder. [1]
