In this paper, we study the qualitative behavior of solutions for a general class of difference equations. The criteria of local and global stability, boundedness and periodicity character (with period 2 k ) of the solution are established. Moreover, by applying our general results on a population model with two age classes, we establish the qualitative behavior of solutions of this model. To support our results, we introduce some numerical examples.
