Study Notes
Self as "I" and "Me"
- William James's theory of self proposes two parts: the "I" and the "Me."
- The "I" is the subjective self, the self that thinks, acts, and experiences.
- The "Me" is the objective self, the self as an object of knowledge. This includes a person's thoughts, feelings, social roles, and recognition from others.
- The "Me" is further divided into material, social, and spiritual aspects.
Theory of Self
- The material self consists of a person's possessions, such as body, family, clothes, and money.
- The social self encompasses a person's actions, thoughts, feelings, words, and mannerisms in various social situations.
- The spiritual self is the core of a person's identity, including personality, values, and conscience.
Self-Attribution
- This involves the reasoning an individual uses to explain their success or failure in a task.
- Rotter's locus of control theory examines whether success or failure is attributed to internal (individual) or external (environmental) factors.
- Weiner's attribution model explores the stability and locus of causality of an event.
- Stability refers to whether an event will change over time.
Self-Image
- Self-image is how a person perceives themselves.
- Actual self: realistic view of oneself.
- Ideal self: desired view of oneself.
Self-Esteem
- Self-esteem is how much an individual values themselves.
- There is a link between self-image and self-esteem, as it is based on self-perception.
- A large gap between the ideal self and actual self could lead to low self-esteem.
Bandura's Factors Influencing Self-Efficacy
- Enactive/Performance Outcomes: Success or failure from experiences affects self-efficacy.
- Vicarious: Observing others' successes or failures can influence self-efficacy.
- Persuasory: Encouragement from others influences self-efficacy.
- Emotive/Physiological: Bodily or emotional feelings about a task affect self-efficacy.

- A child with a disability has significantly greater learning difficulties compared to others of similar age.
Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)

- Other symptoms such as language, fine/gross motor coordination disorders, extreme mood (excitement/ misery) anxiety and depression.
- Teachers should refer to special educational needs coordinators, SENCOs in cases where they suspect a child has ASD.
Support Strategies for ASD
- Use simpler/clearer language. Allow sufficient time between sentences.
- Use visuals for support.
- Encourage the use of visual aids to break up or simplify tasks such as a checklist, task lists or timetable.
- Avoid figurative language.
- Use specific choices or questions, not multiple-choice responses.

- Dyslexia is a learning disability affecting accurate word decoding, reading fluency, and comprehension.
- Writing, spelling and grammatical difficulties are common.
- Auditory processing difficulties and sequential ordering problems could also manifest.
- A variety of factors can cause SpLD, including neurological development issues, genetics and environmental factors.
