Study Notes
Presenting problem
- The presenting problem is the reason someone is seeking therapy or treatment.
- It's observable and behavioral.
- It includes issues beyond mental health or developmental problems, such as social, cognitive, behavioral, interpersonal, academic, issues.
- Examples include difficulties maintaining attention, increasing peer conflicts, increased sleep difficulties, increased aggression or emotional meltdowns, social withdrawal or avoidance.
Parenting Styles and Prosocial Behavior
- Parents model prosocial behavior, children are more likely to display it.
- Authoritative parenting, with warmth, communication, and compassion, helps develop prosocial behavior.
- Providing opportunities for practice and appropriate behavior models fosters prosocial behavior development.
Gender Development
-
Learning Gender Roles:
- Children observe and retain gender-appropriate behavior from same-gender role models like older children, adults, and characters in media.
- They model these behaviors and get positive reinforcement for gender-consistent actions.
- Negative feedback or punishment discourages behaviors not aligned with gender norms.
-
Parents influence:
- Parents are key sources of gender-based learning, influencing toys, clothing, and activities encouraged for their children.
-
Key Gender Concepts:
- Gender identity (internal sense of gender)
- Gender expression (how individuals present their gender)
- Gender norms (socially acceptable behaviors and attitudes based on sex)
- Gender roles (learned or embodied behaviors and attitudes related to sex assigned at birth and sense of femininity/masculinity)
-
Gender and Body:
- Bodies are gendered by cultural expectations and society.
- Masculinity and femininity are linked to certain physical attributes.
- This affects self-perception and how others interact.
-
Gender Identity:
- An individual's internal experience of gender, which may not align with sex assigned at birth.
-
Gender Social:
- Gender roles: Societal expectations of behaviors, attitudes, and personality traits based on biological sex.
- Gender Expression: External presentation of gender to the world.
- Gender Binary: The inaccurate concept of only two genders.
-
Developmental Stages:
- Early Awareness: Children develop an awareness of gender differences and labels around 18 months to 2 years.
- Increased Gender-Typed Behavior: Children increase sex-typed toy preferences between 18 months and 2 years.
- Rigid Gender Concepts: Children adopt strict views of masculinity and femininity, reflecting perceptions of clothing, toys, and behaviors.
- Flexibility in Gender: Children adopt more flexible concepts and thinking around gender.
- Increased Salience and Complexity: Adolescents undergo significant gender-related changes influenced by sexual identity development, puberty, and romantic relationships.
Attachment styles
-
Secure attachment:
- Neurodiverse children feel safe and supported, promoting exploration and independence.
- Fosters emotional regulation, managing sensory overload, anxiety, and challenges.
- Encourages seeking support when needed and building positive relationships.
- Promotes adaptability in navigating transitions and social environments.
-
Insecure-avoidant attachment:
- Children downplay emotional needs due to unresponsive caregivers.
- May lead to avoidance of help and difficulty forming close relationships.
- Can further complicate social challenges for neurodiverse individuals, potentially leading to withdrawal and hindering coping strategy development.
-
Insecure-ambivalent (anxious) attachment:
- Children exhibit heightened anxiety and dependency, relying on caregivers for reassurance.
- Limits independence development and self-regulation.
- May amplify difficulties in navigating new situations and forming peer relationships.
