Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Socioemotional selectivity theory suggests that as people age, they become more aware of the limited time they have left in life and begin to prioritize their emotional goals. This means that they often prioritize spending time with people who are most important to them, such as family and close friends, rather than making new social connections. Therefore, awareness of one's life span is important to development according to this theory.
