Study Notes
Environmental Influence Models
- The model suggesting that a skill or behavior develops earlier than normal due to experience is called experience-dependent plasticity.
- The model indicating a purely maturational pattern with no environmental effect is referred to as the maturational model.
- A model that indicates a particular experience leads to permanent gain or high level of performance is experience-expectant plasticity.
Ecological Perspective by Urie Bronfenbrenner
- The child is situated within a social environment and considered to interact within multiple layers of systems that affect their development, including the microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, and macrosystem.
- Components of this complex system are thought to interact dynamically, where changes in one component can influence others, emphasizing a holistic view of development.
- The perspective highlights that children have the most direct interactions with significant social agents such as parents, friends, and siblings, particularly within the microsystem.
- The influential variables affecting all humanity, like gender and culture, are located within the macrosystem.
Parenting Styles
- The parenting style characterized by high nurturance but low maturation demands, control, and communication is called permissive parenting.
- The style characterized by high control and maturity demands but low nurturance and communication is known as authoritarian parenting.
Child Development Theories
- Theories emphasizing children's actions on the environment, proposing that age-related changes in reasoning precede changes in other domains, are referred to as constructivist theories.
- Theories based on the idea that humans process information similarly to computers are known as information processing theories.
- The term for the social cognitive theory, which assumes age-related change results from maturationally determined conflicts between internal drives and society's demands, is social-emotional development theory.
Research Methods
- The method involving studying different age groups at the same time is known as the cross-sectional method.
- Studying the same participants over a period of time is referred to as the longitudinal method.
- The method that combines cross-sectional and longitudinal designs is called the cross-sequential method.
- The ecological system in which the child has no direct contact but experiences influence in an immediate context is known as the exosystem.
