“…In this study results shows students are find quite satisfied by elearning because it is helpful Due to the lots of benefits of e-learning, students are more focused and more often acquire knowledge from the internet sources rather than traditional lectures, handouts or text books [14,15]. Majority of the students (89.3%) in this study, like to appreciate virtual learning or interactive learning same findings shown by some other studies that the online learning approaches and found that students interacted with the course content more often than they interacted with the instructor, facilitator and fallows [16], but Many studies shows e-learning is more effective, organized, flexible, supportive and well controlled [17,18]. About 100 (75.2%) students find power point presentations not better than old traditional method of teaching especially subject Anatomy and only 33 (24.8%) were appreciate the power point presentations then chalk and board method, Jabeen, N & Ghani, A et al, find the almost same results especially in relation with Anatomy subject [19].…”

The aim of this study was to investigate the current opinions of undergraduate Medical students at the Pak Red Crescent Medical College of Pakistan in respect to information communication technology (ICT), by implementing e-learning system by mixing different strategies, start the e learning program first time on regular bases and then assess the feedback by MBBS Medical students from the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth year and they were asked to complete a questionnaire presented in a e-docs at the end of the sixth week of the e-learning during the lock down due to covid-19 pandemic. Students give a mix response, they feel difficulty to understand medical education first time online but later on they enjoy the whole learning process especially non clinical subjects and e feedback results shows, and Students do not want e-learning as replacing traditional instructor-based training but as a additional component to it, forming part of a blended-learning strategy. Assessments are quickly assessed and quick respond and less chance of cheating. A major disadvantage of early e-learning system, it only covers the cognation process, skill and attitude component of medical teaching and training is not fully taught and hands on activities are impossible to assess through e-learning.

“…The generation of parents, who in our study, were entering their 40s, was characterized by the most dimensional attachment representation. From the perspective of developmental psychology, middle adulthood is characterized by commitment to spousal and parental roles (controlled for in our study), self-regulatory skills (trained by balancing work and parenting demands), and experience in social relations (e.g., Newton & Stewart, 2012). This developmental "stability" of middle-aged adults may be relatively the most adequate to tap the nature of attachment not blurred by other "emergent" developmental changes, which are more visible, for example, in adolescence.…”

Even though previous attachment taxometric studies supported the conclusion that attachment is rather dimensional than categorical construct, they also did not provide consistent support against categorical approach. Addressing limitations of previous taxometric studies on adult attachment, we asked two research questions: Is attachment as measured by the Adult Attachment Scale (AAS) categorical or dimensional? What is the predictive validity of categorical and dimensional approaches? To answer these questions, data of the AAS from 869 parents, 575 adolescents, and 500 grandmothers from the same families in Poland were analyzed. Taxometric analyses were replicated across three generations providing weak evidences to support the dimensional approach. Clustering methods provided an additional support revealing that empirically derived categories of attachment are based on security level but not on qualitatively different attachment patterns. Analyses testing predictive effects of categorical compared to dimensional approaches to attachment assessment revealed that a dimensional approach is more valid than a categorical approach in testing hypotheses related to the intergenerational transmission of attachment.

“…Erikson (1959) posited that a sense of who one is and where one fits into society is the main developmental preoccupation during adolescence and young adulthood; however, he also felt that identity development is a lifelong preoccupation. Among other things, identity involves a commitment to a vocation, occupational self-representation, and a level of inner sameness that allows individuals to navigate changes as they move through adulthood (Kroger, 2016;Newton & Stewart, 2012;Whitbourne & Skultety, 2006). Kroger (2002) drew a comparison between late adulthood and adolescence in terms of focusing on identity; she found that adults aged 65 to 75 were engaged in identity reintegration and reevaluation.…”

I grew up, I mean, I was at the tail of the traditional women but not really at the forefront of the women's movement. I spent my married life as a good wife; I had some part-time work and then when my husband and I divorced I suddenly thought holy shit! (Excuse my language.) I've got to support myself! And finding that I could was very empowering.-Retired successful businesswoman, age 75According to the life-course perspective (Elder, 1995;Settersten, 2003), major life transitions such as retirement are embedded in the contexts defined by personal history and social circumstances. The wide variety of contextual factors affecting life transitions can include family situations, socioeconomic status, organizational work contexts and policies, one's own and/or one's partner's health, the nature of one's work, income, and the perception of being pressured to retire (Gibaldi, 2013;Ní Léime, 2017;Shultz & Wang, 2011;Wang et al., 2011). For example, two comparatively recent major policy changes that may affect work-related transitions are the
