Child development theories 1 • Historically: • Childhood: the early part of being an adult - not a special period • Children as little adults – no special care or attention required; no differentiation between ‘child’ development and ‘adult’ development
Child development theories 2 • Arnold Gesell (1880 -1961): universal patterns of physical maturation, genetically driven and determined > ‘milestones of development’ • Sigmund Freud (1857 -1959): early childhood experience informs subsequent development; focus on impact of psychosexual influences > type of stage theory
Child development theories 3 • Erik Erikson (1902-1994): extends Freud’s perspectives: • Brings in environmental factors and more stages issue of overcoming stage related ‘crisis’ events. • B.F. Skinner (1904 -1990): Child behaviour shaped by how experience is reinforced: • Role of reward and punishment > experience conditions behaviour
Child development theories 4 • Alfred Bandura (1925 -present): Learning informed by imitation and social observation • Role of motivation and inner psychological processes • modelling, role models, ‘social’ learning: ‘Social Learning Theory’
Child development theories 5 • Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934): Learning interactions as basis of development: • Role of social context, language, communication and the mediating influence of others inform a ‘social constructivist’ development • Historical, cultural and social factors inform cognition and development - ‘language’ is the principal societal tool
Child development theories 6 • Jean Piaget (1896 -1980): development seen as: • Four, genetically driven, universal and sequential stages of symbol based ‘cognitive’ development. • These reflect children's individual construction of their own thinking systems, supported by interaction with adults
Child development theories 7 • John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth (Integrated Attachment Theory): • focus on how parent – child relationships are established • the role of early relational experiences and their impact on how later relationships are formed and maintained • ‘Life Course’ perspectives: re-integration of child and adult development as aspects of a single developmental continuum
