Study Notes
Human Development
- Human development entails ongoing change and growth throughout an individual's life.
- Holistic development nurtures all aspects of a person's being, recognizing interconnections between various life areas.
Five Areas of Personal Development
-
Physiological
- Encompasses physical changes in the body, including sensory and movement skill development.
- Notable maturation occurs during puberty, characterized by changes in height, body mass, and secondary sexual characteristics.
-
Cognitive
- Involves the development of thought processes and reasoning abilities.
- Piaget’s Cognitive Development Theory outlines four stages to illustrate how children build understanding:
- Sensorimotor: Object permanence and coordination of sensory experiences with actions in infants.
- Preoperational: Toddlers engage in symbolic play; limited understanding of conservation.
- Concrete Operational: Children grasp the concept of conservation and can perform basic arithmetic, but struggle with abstract ideas.
- Formal Operational: Adolescents develop the ability to think abstractly and use hypothetical reasoning.
- Key concepts include:
- Schema: Mental frameworks representing knowledge.
- Assimilation: Incorporating new information into existing schemas.
- Accommodation: Modifying or creating new schemas to fit new information.
- Equilibrium: Balance between assimilation and accommodation to stabilize understanding.
-
Emotional
- Involves the management of experiences and feelings, alongside developing a personal sense of self and social relationships.
- Emotions serve as physiological experiences that provide feedback about the world, while feelings represent personal awareness of those emotions.
-
Social
- Defines the inherent human capacity to connect with others and build relationships.
- Erikson's Psychosocial Development Theory consists of eight stages, each featuring key conflicts for personal growth, from infancy to late adulthood, emphasizing virtues like trust, autonomy, and identity.
- Adolescence is marked by the struggle for identity; unresolved conflicts can lead to role confusion and reliance on external identities rather than personal achievements.
-
Spiritual
- Involves exploring the self beyond ego, relating to the soul and inner essence for finding meaning in life.
- The development of a spiritual framework aids in facing life’s challenges.
Connection Between Thoughts, Feelings, and Behaviors
- Thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected, influencing one another in response to situations.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses negative thought patterns and behaviors, promoting emotional well-being.
- Cognitive processes initiate emotions, which then drive behaviors, creating a feedback loop that affects self-perception, such as feelings of failure stemming from negative self-beliefs.
