HUMAN GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT: GENERAL THEORIES AND INFANCY – PRESCHOOLER SPECIFICS Dr. Teresa Boyer OBJECTIVES CHAPTER 5 1. Discuss the principles of growth and development. 2. Compare and contrast developmental task theory, psychoanalytic theory, cognitive theory, and the psychosocial theory of growth and development. 3. Outline the major principles involved in moral and spiritual development. 4. Identify conditions that influence growth and development at all ages. 5. Discuss the cognitive and psychosocial challenge for each age group, infant through middle age. 6. Identify common health problem seen in each stage of development. 7. Describe any special assessments unique to each age group. 8. Discuss age-appropriate interventions for each age group. 9. Incorporate developmental principles into nursing care. HUMAN GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT How people change as they go through life. Growth – Physical changes that occur over time Development –Process of adapting to one’s body and environment over time *Change is constant throughout the life span BASIC CONCEPTS OF GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT PRINCIPLES OF GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT Orderly, predictable Cephalocaudal Proximodistal Simple skills complex skills Body systems Own rate Increasingly differentiated REMEMBER! No absolute rules! All unique DEVELOPMENTAL THEORIES DEVELOPMENTAL THEORIES Numerous Explain life span development Divides life span in stages Identify tasks usually accomplished in each stage DEVELOPMENTAL THEORIES Organizing framework Understanding Individualize care Planning Clinical decision making ROBERT HAVIGHURST DEVELOPMENTAL TASK THEORY Lifelong learning Six stages Tasks in each Influencing factors Psychological Biological Societal Task failure problems with self and future tasks Limited by nonspecific time frame Refer to Table 5-1, page 119 SIGMUND FREUD Psychoanalytic Theory SIGMUND FREUD PSYCHOANALYTIC THEORY Focuses What motivates behavior Personality development PERSONALITY ACCORDING TO FREUD http://www.psychologyroots.com/ http://intercontexting.com/to-fight-or-not-to-fight-over-a-shopping-cart/ FREUD TOPOGRAPHY OF THE MIND EGO DEFENSE MECHANISMS Denial Reaction Repression Formation Avoidance Compensation Displacement Identification Sublimation Isolation Projection Projection Intellectualization Undoing Rationalization Regression Minimization Dissociation p.217; Table 8-1, pp 219-220 SIGMUND FREUD PSYCHOSEXUAL DEVELOPMENT 1.

JEAN PIAGET COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT THEORY ❖4 Stages ❖ Infancythrough Adolescence ❖ Build on previous stage ❖ Intellectualgrowth is a continual restructuring of knowledge ❖ Learning a result of internal organization of an event and forming a mental plan PIAGET COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT REQUIRES Adaptation – ability to adjust to and interact with environment Assimilation – integrating new experiences into own knowledge Accommodation – change in knowledge that results from processing new information PIAGET’S STAGES Sensorimotor (Birth- 2 yrs.) ✓ Dominated by physical manipulation of objects ✓ Explores world through senses Preoperational (2-7 yrs.) ✓ Developing verbal skills ✓ Thoughts on perception vs logic ✓ Can pretend ✓ Egocentric PIAGET’S STAGES Concrete Operational (7-11 yrs.) Focus on multiple parts of a problem Logic and reason Can add and subtract Other viewpoints Conservation (objects may change but are same) Formal Operational (11-adolescence) Abstract thought Deductive reasoning PIAGET ADDITIONAL RESOURCES https://positivepsychology.com/piaget-stages- theory/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=4 7&v=IhcgYgx7aAA&embeds_referring_euri=http s%3A%2F%2Fwww.structural- learning.com%2F&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY&fea ture=emb_logo QUESTION Maria is 16-years-old and is working in her Uncle’s bakery. He expects her to be able to count back change to customers without relying on the register to tell her the amount of change that is due. He assumes that Maria is progressing through which of Piaget’s stages? A. Sensorimotor B. Preoperational C. Concrete Operational D. Formal Operational ANSWER Maria is 16-years-old and is working in her Uncle’s bakery. He expects her to be able to count back change to customers without relying on the register to tell her the amount of change that is due. He assumes that Maria is progressing through which of Piaget’s stages? A. Sensorimotor B. Preoperational C. Concrete Operational D. Formal Operational PSYCHOSOCIAL DEVELOPMENT THEORY (ERIK ERIKSON) ❖Firstlife-span theory ❖8 stages ❖No-one moves through all stages with only successes ❖Can become stuck in a stage ❖Can regress to a previous stage ❖Successes need to outnumber the failures ERIKSON’S STAGES OF PSYCHOSOCIAL DEVELOPMENT LAWRENCE KOHLBERG MORAL DEVELOPMENT THEORY GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT BY AGE GROUP NEONATAL PERIOD Birth to 28 days Will be covered NRSG 1330, Maternal-newborn nursing in Spring of 2nd year INFANCY: 1 MONTH TO 1 YEAR Physical Development – Growth Weight Gains about 1½ pounds per month for the first 3 months Birth weight doubles by 4-6 months and triples by one year Posterior fontanel closes 2-3 months INFANCY: 1 MONTH TO 1 YEAR Physical Development Teeth First between 6-8 months 6-8 by one year Lower central incisors followed by upper central incisors Fluoridated water or fluoride supplement after 6 months INFANCY: 1 MONTH TO 1 YEAR Physical Development Feeding 30 ounces of breast milk or formula per day by 4 months Breast milk optimal, but support choice if formula fed Adequate nutrition for one year Solid foods @ 6 months INFANCY: 1 MONTH TO 1 YEAR Sleep Reversed sleep pattern possible first few months Average 15 hours/day Sleeps through night by 3 to 4 months up to 10 hours Motor development Milestones See Box 5-1, Page 128 INFANCY: 1 MONTH TO 1 YEAR Cognitive Development (Piaget) Sensorimotor Major strides in motor development Verbally interacts with caregivers By 9 months, recognizes familiar objects and searches for them when out of sight At 12 months Imitates sounds Understands simple words May have a vocabulary of four or five simple words They learn by doing INFANCY: 1 MONTH TO 1 YEAR Psychosocial Development Development of trust (Erikson: Trust vs Mistrust) Oral stage (Freud) Begin to smile when 2 or 3 months of age May have separation anxiety (4-6 months) At 9 months Interacts more with environment Socializes with others Stranger fear 6-8 months INFANCY: HEALTH PROBLEMS Crying and colic Failure to thrive Occurs when no attachment or physiological Mistrust (Erikson) Dental caries SIDS Peak incidence 3 – 4 months, may occur up to 12 months Decrease risk factors INFANCY: HEALTH PROBLEMS Abuse and Neglect Unexplained injuries Seizures Respiratory difficulty Shaken-baby syndrome Child abuse Severe brain injury Possibly no visible evidence of trauma Unintentional Injury Automobile accidents, falls, burns, choking, drowning INFANCY: ASSESSMENT Regular well baby visits Usually 1-2 weeks, 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, & 12 months Measure the infant's growth and development Height Weight Head Circumference Gross and fine motor skills Are they meeting developmental milestones?
