Study Notes
Developmental Psychology
Moral Development
-
Lawrence Kohlberg's Theory:
- 6 stages of moral development, divided into 3 levels: pre-conventional, conventional, and post-conventional
- Stages 1-2: obedience and punishment, self-interest
- Stages 3-4: social norms, law and order
- Stages 5-6: social contract, universal ethical principles
-
Carol Gilligan's Critique:
- Argued that Kohlberg's theory is biased towards male moral development
- Proposed a more nuanced, care-based approach to moral development
Social Development
-
Attachment Theory:
- John Bowlby's theory of attachment styles: secure, anxious, avoidant, disorganized
- Mary Ainsworth's "strange situation" experiment to assess attachment
-
Social Learning Theory:
- Albert Bandura's theory of observational learning and modeling
- Role of reinforcement, punishment, and observation in shaping behavior
Cognitive Development
-
Jean Piaget's Theory:
- 4 stages of cognitive development: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, formal operational
- Focus on active construction of knowledge through assimilation and accommodation
-
Lev Vygotsky's Sociocultural Theory:
- Emphasis on social interaction and language in shaping cognitive development
- Zone of proximal development: learning through guided instruction and collaboration
Language Acquisition
-
Noam Chomsky's Innateness Hypothesis:
- Proposal of an innate language acquisition device (LAD) in the brain
- Universal grammar: hardwired rules and principles governing language structure
-
Interactionist Approach:
- Emphasis on the role of environmental and social factors in language acquisition
- Importance of caregiver-child interaction and feedback in language development

Social Development
- Attachment Theory: John Bowlby's theory of attachment styles, including secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized
- Mary Ainsworth's "Strange Situation" Experiment: Assesses attachment styles through observation of child and caregiver interaction
- Social Learning Theory: Albert Bandura's theory of observational learning and modeling
- Role of Reinforcement, Punishment, and Observation: Shaping behavior through reinforcement, punishment, and observation
Cognitive Development
- Jean Piaget's Theory: 4 stages of cognitive development: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational
