The other name of life is adjustment. As members of a society we make a lot of adjustment. 

Key Points

  • Adjustment is a change in order to correct or improve the relationship. Adjustment skills are important for maintaining peace and harmony in society. According to Ruth Strang (1949) “Adjustment is a process and not a state.
  • Adjustment is continuous throughout life. From the biological point of view adjustment would emphasize adaptation for survival, while a narrower view of it would be adaptation for need reduction.
  • The efforts of the individual to adapt himself to the environment may be called the adjustment process.
  • The adjustment process is affected and modified by the individual's experiences and thus learning plays a significant part in aiding adjustment.

Thus, it is concluded that Strang said that "Adjustment is a process not a state."
