    Study Notes

    Psychoanalytic Theory

    • Children develop through a series of stages, confronting conflicts between biological drives and social expectations.
    • Healthy personality development is determined by how parents manage a child's early sexual and aggressive drives.
    • Fixation occurs when a child's sexual desires are either overly satisfied or undersatisfied.
    • There are 7 psychosexual stages, each with a specific focus:
      • Oral (birth to 1): Mouth, weaning, and oral gratification.
      • Anal (1 to 3): Anus, toilet training, and gratification from expelling or withholding feces.
      • Phallic (3 to 6): Genitals, Oedipus complex, and Electra complex.
      • Latency (6 to puberty): Period of sexual calmness, interest in school, and hobbies.
      • Genital (Puberty onwards): Re-awakening of sexual drives, building intimate relationships.

    Psychosocial Development

    • Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development:
      • 0-18 months old: Trust vs. Mistrust
      • 18 months – 3 years old: Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt
      • 3 – 5 years old: Initiative vs. Guilt
      • 5 – 13 years old: Industry vs. Inferiority
      • 13-21 years old: Identity vs. Role Confusion
      • 21-39 years old: Intimacy vs. Isolation
      • 40-65 years old: Generativity vs. Stagnation
      • 65 years older: Integrity vs. Despair
    • Havighurst's concept of developmental tasks: process by which humans learn tasks required by society.
    • Age-graded expectations: tasks change with age.
    • Sensitive periods: periods of development when an individual is most ready to acquire a new ability.

    Learning Theories

    • Operant/Instrumental Conditioning (B.F. Skinner):
      • Processes: reinforcement, punishment, and schedule of reinforcement.
      • Positive Reinforcement: increase behavior, e.g., bonus for working hard.
      • Negative Reinforcement: decrease behavior, e.g., aspirin relieving headache.
      • Positive Punishment: increase behavior, e.g., getting a speeding ticket.
      • Negative Punishment: decrease behavior, e.g., losing the privilege to hang out late.
    • Schedules of Reinforcement:
      • Fixed Ratio (FR): reward after a fixed number of responses.
      • Variable Ratio (VR): reward after an unpredictably varying number of responses.
      • Fixed Interval (FI): reward after a fixed amount of time.
      • Variable Interval (VI): reward after an unpredictably varying amount of time.

    Cognitive Development

    • Piaget's Cognitive Development Theory:
      • Assimilation: using existing schemes to interpret new experiences.
      • Accommodation: modifying familiar schemes to interpret new experiences.
      • Stages of Development:
        • Sensorimotor (0-18 months): lack of object permanence.

    Systems Theory

    • Urie Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory:
      • Microsystem: immediate context/setting.
      • Mesosystem: interactions between two microsystems.
      • Exosystem: settings that do not involve the person directly but affect the person.
      • Macrosystem: culture or society.
      • Chronosystem: environmental events and transitions over one's life.

    Psychosocial Theory

    • Emphasis on the interplay among biological, psychological, and societal systems.
    • Stages of development:
      • Developmental tasks.
      • Psychosocial crisis.
      • Resolving psychosocial crises: central process to resolve the crises.
