Since adulthood following are the detailed, real-life example for each key feature of the model:

1.Multidirectional: The aging process has started to occur in me since adulthood. This aging process is multidirectional and involves both losses and gains. Some dimensions of functioning are now declining, while others are improving. For example, physical stamina is now gradually decreaseing with age, but my accumulated knowledge or “wisdom” is gradually increasing.

2. plasticity: Since adulthood, I have experienced that now my brain has achieved the ability to change and adapt as a result of my experience. This helps me lot to deal with real life situations and also at my work.

3.historical context: Since my adulthood, I have a history of engagement with different culture & country people. This context and aspect has shaped me as a better person in terms of understanding. Even I have learnt Italian langugae and a few concepts of Japanese language. This strengthened my engagement with other culture people.

4. multiple causation: Since my adulthood, I have experience a lot of things in my life which are not based on a single cause but are based on multiple causes. For example: My excellence in my official job is not only due to my clarity on financial concepts which I learnt due to my cognitive abilities but also due to my dedication and support from my boss, colleagues and organization.
