“…Since experiential education tends to engage a wider range of participants who can have an impact on the organization, employees, educators, leaders, and future colleagues, it is critical to maintain its positive, welcoming atmosphere. The importance of EL lies in its ability to facilitate connections between undergraduate education and professional experience (Earnest et al, 2016), so improving the connection between the university and the world of work (Friedman and Goldbaum, 2016).…”

Due to the birth of positive psychology in the process of education, classroom engagement has been flourished and got a remarkable role in the academic field. The other significant determining factor of success in education is motivation which is in line with classroom engagement. Moreover, based on the constructivist approach, experiential learning (EL) as a new method in education and a learner-centric pedagogy is at the center of attention, as a result of its contributions to improving the value of education which centers on developing abilities, and experiences. The current review makes an effort to consider the role of EL on students’ classroom engagement and motivation by inspecting its backgrounds and values. Subsequently, the efficacy of findings for academic experts in educational contexts is discussed.

“…The low proportion of older adults in therapy may be a consequence of therapy being more heavily stigmatized for this group (Berger & Spira, 2016; Conner et al, 2010). Older adults may be less likely to seek out mental health services because many clinicians do not feel comfortable treating them (F. B. Friedman & Goldbaum, 2016; Klap et al, 2003).…”

et al. 2018

With the urgent need to increase and improve mental health care of the growing population of older adults in the United States, clinical research is warranted to further the knowledge and improve the relevant training for mental health professionals working with older adults. This study drew from two diverse clinical samples of adults ages 18 years to 80 years to examine whether and how initial clinical presentations and changes over time in individual, family-of-origin, and relational measures differed across the life span. Results indicated a variety of linear and curvilinear associations between individual, family-of-origin, and relational measures at intake and age, with some moderation by gender. There were no significant results between the amount of change on those measures and age, indicating that older adults may change in similar fashion to middle-aged and younger adults in psychotherapy. Relevant clinical implications are provided.

“…As discussed in the literature having social networks and a sense of community is vital for successful aging. Moreover, having positive social networks have been shown to serve as a protective measure as it related to overall physical and psychological health (Adams & Blieszner, 1995;Antonucci, 2001;Baltes, 1997;Berkman, 2002;Fenkl, 2014;Friedman & Goldbaum, 2016). however, the impact of strong social support has been shown to have positive influences on aging well (Adams & Blieszner, 1995;Antonucci, 2001;Baltes, 1997, Frazier & Waid, 1999.…”
