Study Notes
Attachment and Identity Development
-
Attachment Styles:
- Secure Attachment: develops foundation for psychological development; sensitive and responsive parenting style
- Avoidant Attachment: outwardly unaffected by caregiver leaving or returning; inconsistent and unresponsive parenting style
- Ambivalent Attachment: anxious and clingy; rejecting or inconsistent parenting style
- Disorganized-Disoriented Attachment: lacks cohesive strategy for dealing with stress; frightened and frightening parenting style
-
Mahler's Separation-Individuation Theory:
- Psychological Birth: focused on independence, growing from dependent to independent (1-3 years old)
- Separation: internal process of mental separation from the mother
- Individuation: developing self-concept, internalizing mother's image
-
Stages of Development:
- Differentiation (5-10 months): child becomes aware of separation from mother
- Practicing (10-16/18 months): child gains motor skills and independence
- Rapprochement (18-24 months): child becomes anxious about separation from mother and regains closeness
- Object Constancy (24+ months): development of internalized mental model of the mother
Learning Theories
-
Behaviorism:
- Focuses on observed behavior as a predictable response to experience
-
Operant Conditioning (Skinner):
- Consequences of behavior (reinforcement, punishment) influence future behavior
- Reinforcement increases behavior, punishment decreases behavior
-
Social Learning Theory (Bandura):
- Reciprocal determinism: environment and behavior influence each other
- Observational learning: learning from models
- Self-efficacy: confidence in one's abilities
-
Experiential Learning Theory (Kolb):
- Focuses on learning through concrete experiences and reflection
Identity Development by Marcia
- Identity Achievement: crisis leading to commitment
- Foreclosure: commitment without crisis
- Moratorium: crisis with no commitment yet
- Identity Diffusion: no commitment, no crisis
Evolutionary Theory by Wilson
- Draws from anthropology, ecology, genetics, ethology, and evolutionary psychology to explain adaptive and survival value of behavior
- Natural selection and genetic evolution influence human behavior and culture
- Ethology: study of adaptive behaviors in natural contexts
- Evolutionary Psychology: applying Darwinian principles to human behavior
Developmental Principles
- Lifelong: each period affects what comes before and after
- Multidimensional: development is influenced by multiple interacting dimensions
- Multidirectional: growth in one area can lead to loss in another
- Multidisciplinary: multiple fields contribute to understanding development
- Relative influences of biology and culture shift over the life span: biological abilities weaken with age, but cultural supports can compensate
- Involves changing resource allocations: resources are used for growth, maintenance, or dealing with loss
- Shows plasticity: abilities can be improved with training and practice
- Influenced by historical and cultural context: development is shaped by cultural and historical context
