    Study Notes

    Developmental Management in Pediatric Primary Care

    • Primary care providers monitor overall physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development.
    • Providers offer anticipatory guidance as children grow.
    • They are key players in helping families adapt to life changes.
    • A strong background in child development is needed.
    • Diverse approaches to childrearing are suggested.
    • This support is provided at all types of office visits.

    Developmental Principles

    • Principle 1: Growth and development are orderly and sequential.
    • Principle 2: Rates/timing of growth and development stages vary, yet phases are predictable, and the pace is specific for each child.
    • Principle 3: Development follows a cephalocaudal and proximodistal direction. (head to toe; center outwards). Infants gain head control before sitting/walking, and controlled movements happen first toward the midline, then progress to the extremities.
    • Principle 4: Growth and development gradually become more integrated, arising from small changes in skills like feeding.
    • Principle 5: Developmental abilities increasingly organize and differentiate. Behaviors and responses to internal/external cues become more regulated, organized, and differentiated.
    • Principle 6: The child's internal and external environment significantly affect their growth and development. Play, social norms, culture, and family traditions are influential factors. Children influence their environment too.
    • Principle 7: Certain periods during growth and development are critical. These periods are highly susceptible to alterations from internal or external influences.
    • Principle 8: Development is a continuous process, often without smooth transitions, with periods of change, growth, and stability plateaus.

    Theories of Child Development

    • Cognitive-Structural Theories:

      • Piaget (1969) – examines how children incorporate experiences into their mental/physical being over time.
        • Sensorimotor Stage (birth to 2 years): Learning about the world through sensory and motor actions; Key concepts include object permanence, spatial relationships, causality, and instrument/object combinations.
        • Preoperational Stage (2 to 7 years): Children attempt to make sense of the world; egocentric thinking is common; flawed cause-and-effect reasoning is present, while intuitive reasoning emerges, and they can only reason with connections to real objects.
        • Concrete Operational Stage (7 to 12 years): Children develop symbolic thinking, can organize experiences, classify complex information, understand logical reasoning and decline egocentrism.
        • Formal Operational Stage (13 years through adolescence): Abstract thinking and imagination emerge; they contemplate different solutions to problems, develop awareness of health/illness, and their behavior's effect. Egocentrism is replaced by an appreciation of differences in judgments.

    • Psychoanalytic Theories:

      • Freud (1938): Examined links between conscious mind, body, and unconscious mind.
      • Anna Freud (1974): Focused on children; Psychoanalytic theory to understand potential harm during critical development.
      • Erikson (1964): Described stages of individual development throughout life span; each has a problem to master.
      • Sullivan (1964): Emphasized self-concept and environmental influences on development.
      • Mahler and colleagues (1975): Explored infant development; Three stages: autism, symbiosis, and separation-individuation.
      • Stern (1985), Emde & Buchsbaum (1990), Rogoff (1990): Importance of quality/consistency of infant-caregiver relationship to develop self-concept.
      • Trevarthen & Aitken (2001): Infant's capacity for self-regulation is operation of intrinsic motive formation (IMF) leading to purposeful consciousness.

    • Role of Social Interaction:

      • Kohlberg (1969): Explored moral development and socialization. Children learn societal norms and expectations.
      • Gilligan (1982): Focused on how the different objectives/goals of females often differ from those of males when interacting in social contexts. Girls often think about caring and relationships.
      • Fowler (1981): Examined the spiritual dimension of human life and the development of faith process; meaning in daily life.
      • Vygotsky (1978): Children develop as individuals within cultural contexts through interactions with others.

    • Behavioral Theories:

      • Skinner (1953): Learning controlled through operant conditioning; behavior modification.
      • Bandura (1962): Social learning theory; imitation and modeling.
      • Bijou & Baer (1965): Influence of genetics and personal history on how children respond in different environments.

    • Humanistic Theories:

      • Maslow (1971), Buhler & Allen (1972), Mahrer (1978): Development throughout life spans, and Maslow's hierarchy of needs (deficiency needs to self-actualization).

    • Ecologic Theories:

      • Bronfenbrenner (1979): Focused on the interdependence of environment and developing children, emphasizing that children are dynamic; restructure settings. Environments affect children through mutual accommodation and reciprocity.

    • Behavioral Economics:

      • World Bank Group (2015), Gennetian et al. (2016): Behavior is blended from sociology, psychology and economic theory. Three influences: automatic thinking, cultural influences and norms, and past experiences/social contexts (models).

    • Family Theories:

      • Bowen (1966): Family structure with a focus on differentiation of self and emotional fusion concepts.
      • Lampis et al. (2017): Examined anxiety/tension between two family members passed on to a third influences child behavior.
      • Hengartner (2017): Explored how families evolve with learned behaviors passed on and genetic influences involved.
      • Family Systems Theory (Bowen, 1960): Examined family dynamics, differentiation of self, and emotional fusion.

    • Evolutionary Life History Theories:

      • Focus explaining family's environment on child development, evolution of learned behaviors through time; genetic influences of behavior driven by biologic imperative to reproduce; parent-child relationships when parents are less focused on parenting

    • Parent Development Theory:

      • Mowder (2005), Sperling and Mowder (2006): Defined the parent as responsible for caring for and raising a child. Six characteristics are identified which vary by child's developmental needs.

    Cultural Influences on Development

    • Cultural/ethnic traditions influence development.
    • Normal differences occur between cultural groups.
    • Parental responses vary by culture.
    • Use appropriate tools (i.e., genogram, eco-map) to identify family strengths and practices.
    • Be aware of own cultural biases.

    Management Strategies in Child Development

    • Promoting Parent Development and Parent-Child Interaction: Anticipatory Guidance to help with changes/increases in parenting skills, parents' comfort/experience, their problem-solving skills, normative development information, realistic expectations for parents, and strategies for education about parenting strategies.
    • Important frameworks for anticipatory guidance include Bright Futures, Healthy Steps and other relevant frameworks.
    • Family-centered care: All families' cultural values, learning styles, and beliefs, must be respected in management strategies.

    Concerns About Delayed Development

    • Developmental Red Flags (Box 8.2): Awareness that development varies and differences are normal while considering developmental discrepancies that may be present.
    • Use of standardized developmental screens should be used at every visit to assess developmental concerns.
    • Factors impacting concerns about delays include vulnerability, resilience and health/well-being, and potential causes.
    • Talking with Parents: Routine conversations about development delays should be ongoing, focusing on listening, sensitivity to concerns, providing resources, being honest, positive, and realistic.
    • Intervention Resources: Public Law 94-142 addresses children >3 years old with IEPs in public schools. PCPs should be aware of these plans/interventions and provide support regarding health care concerns. Family-centered care is important here.
    • Care Coordination: Children with special health care needs should be identified who require services beyond that of typical children.
