Maslow
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
~People are always motivated towards higher order needs


Self-Actualization
~
Self-Esteem/Prestige
~
Belonging/Love
Security/Safety
~
Food/Water


~

Needs are filled from the physiological to the social to the cognitive level
Arnold Gesell
~Believed that a child's growth was genetically pre-ordained given a normal environment

~Children bloomed in an orderly and predictable pattern

Terms associated with Gesell include:

• Day Cycle – Everyday abilities expand; growth occurs.

• Self-Regulatory Fluctuations – Growth and instability occur simultaneously moving the
child toward maturity.

• Constitutional Individuality – Each individual is unique and has his or her own growth
pattern/mode.

Through his research, he developed a measure that is used as a clinical tool to help differentiate
potentially normal babies from abnormal ones. The version of the test that is currently used
assesses four major fields of growth/behavior:

1. Motor – Gross bodily control and finer motor coordinations including head balance,
sitting, creeping, grasping objects, etc.

2. Language – Audible and visual communication including facial expressions, gestures,
vocalizations, comprehension of others’ communication, etc.

3. Adaptive – Eye-hand coordination, fine motor coordination, begins to adjust for simple
problems, etc.

4. Personal-Social – Cooperativeness, responsiveness to training, feeding abilities, etc.
Robert Havighurst
Stages of Growth
~
Each developmental task requiring the last one for success
~
Havighurst is perhaps best known for his delineation of four stages of adulthood:

Stage 1: Early Adulthood (about ages 18 to 30)

Tasks: ● Explore intimate relationships and start a family

• Explore and begin a career

• Explore and find a compatible social group

Stage 2: Middle Adulthood or Middle Age (about ages 30 to 60)

Tasks: ● Manage career

• Nurture the marital relationship, social relationships, and the household

Stage 3: Later Adulthood or Later Maturity (about ages 60 to 75)

Tasks: ● Accept new roles and activities

• Accept life

• Formulate a viewpoint on death

Stage 4: Very Old Age

Task: ● Coping with physical changes
Behaviorism
Watson and Skinner
~
Learning approach
~
Environment manipulates the biological and physical drives resulting in development
~
Learning and behavior changes are the result of rewards and punishments
~
Reward is a positive reinforcing stimulus
Thorndike
~
Law of Effect
Law of Effect
~
When a stimulus response connection is followed by a reward (reinforcement) that connection is strengthened
Ivan Pavlov
~
Classical Conditioning
Theory involves reflexes ie dog salivates
~
Pavlovian conditioning is respondent/reflex oriented
Meat=UCS
Bell=UCS
Stimulus Generalization
~
Irradiation
~
Second Order Conditioning
Occurs when a stimulus similar to the CS (bell) produces the same reaction
Experimental Neurosis
Differentiation process between stimuli becomes difficult because they are almost identical. This results in emotional disturbance
Instrumental/Operant
~
Skinner
Instrumental/Operant Conditioning
~
P/U toys get a hug or cookie
Negative reinforcement

vs

Positive Reinforcement
Positive Reinforcement:
Think of it as adding something in order to increase a response. For example, adding a treat will increase the response of sitting; adding praise will increase the chances of your child cleaning his or her room. The most common types of positive reinforcement or praise and rewards, and most of us have experienced this as both the giver and receiver.
~
Negative Reinforcement: Think of negative reinforcement as taking something negative away in order to increase a response. Imagine a teenager who is nagged by his mother to take out the garbage week after week. After complaining to his friends about the nagging, he finally one day performs the task and to his amazement, the nagging stops. The elimination of this negative stimulus is reinforcing and will likely increase the chances that he will take out the garbage next week.

Life Career Rainbow-roles we play
This theory is the foundation
for Strong Vocational Interest Inventory. The six types:

 Realistic
 Investigative
 Artistic
 Social
 Enterprising
 Conventional

 Realistic: Individuals comfortable in these environments prefer defined tasks requiring physical manipulation and few interpersonal skills. Preferred activities deal with concrete objects (tools, machines, information) and require good motor coordination.
Examples: Accountants, agricultural workers, engineers, mechanics, technicians

 Investigative: Often having poor persuasive and social skills, individuals functioning well in these environments prefer systematic yet creative investigational activities. Without the need for power, status or dominance, these individuals avoid interpersonal relationships. They prefer abstract concepts and
use their intelligence to solve problems.
Examples: Chemists, computer programmers, mathematicians, scientists

 Artistic: People in this category are imaginative and dislike systematic, ordered tasks. Preferring self-expression via physical, verbal or other avenues, they are
comfortable with their feelings. Typically nonconforming and difficult to contain, they abhor organizational or administrative tasks that are part of most processes.
Examples: Artists, editors, musicians, actors, writers

 Social: Clearly social, these individuals prefer activities that inform, develop or enlighten others. Seeking vocations that require relationships, they dislike
activities that focus upon tools or machines.
Examples: Counselors, social workers, teachers

 Enterprising: Tending to dominate and manipulate others, people in this category
are extroverted. Preferring leadership and persuasive roles, they dislike abstractions and caution. Seeming always “on the edge,” they are driven by power
and social status.
Examples: Managers, politicians, sales personnel, self-employed entrepreneurs

 Conventional: Content to be subordinated and prefer conformity to rules and regulations, conventional types prefer practical, orderly, clean, systematic and
structured activities. Ambiguity is abhorrent.
Examples: File clerks, cost accountants, clerical workers
Gottfredson
Circumscription and Comprimise
(Developmental)
Self Concept is central to career selection

People narrow down jobs (circumscribe) and opt out of inappropriate jobs (compromise) as they develop

Developmental Process

Orientation to Size and Power (3-5)
Begins to understand what it means to be an adult

Orientation to Sex Roles (6-8)
Children learn that many occupations are performed by one sex type or another

Orientation to social valuation (9-13)
Greater awareness of values held by peers

Orientation to internal unique self (14+)
In occupational selection as a teenager or adult, internal factors such as aspirations, values and interests are critical

Children choose jobs that suit their sex
Teenagers choose jobs that suit their social values and class

Teenage years and beyond, self awareness helps determine occupation
Krumboltz
Learning Theory of Career Counseling
Influenced by Bandura's social learning theory

Learning skills over time influence career choice

Planned Happenstance-Unplanned events which influence career development
Savickas

Social Constructionism
Narrative approach
Stories and meanings are provided by clients
Schein's Model of Consultation
Process model that emphasizes group-dynamics and
communication processes within organizations.

Process consultation is also known as organizational development.

Schein recommended the following seven interacting and overlapping steps to
process consultation:

1. initial contact with the client organization

2. definition of the consultation relationship, including both the formal and psychological
contracts

3. selection and setting of a method of work

4. data gathering and diagnosis

5. intervention

6. involvement reduction

7. termination

D. Process consultants are usually not experts in the field of their consultees. Rather, they
provide expertise in interpersonal process (e.g., communication) within an organization.

E. Process models of consultation are sometimes called "purchase" or "purchase of expertise"
models
Caplan’s 4 Models of Mental Health Consultation:
Client-Centered Case Consultation - a consultee needs help assessing or diagnosing a patient and needs to consult a specialist to assess the client and offer suggestions to the consultee

Consultee-Centered Case Consultation - a consultee who has a difficult client needs help due to their own professional shortcomings
• Lack of Knowledge
• Lack of Skill
• Lack of Self-Confidence
• Lack of Objectively Program-Centered Administrative Consultation - similar to Client-Centered, it deals with developing and implementing programs at the administrative
organizational level

Consultee-Centered Administrative Consultation - the consultant deals with the administrative level discovering shortcomings and other issues to guide them to discover
ways to improve their organizational standards
Primary Groups
Preventive; teach coping strategies or life-style characteristics that can
reduce the incidence of a problem (ex. diet and weight management to
prevent diabetes).

Primary (preventative) groups; sometimes called affective education
groups or psychological education groups; do not deal with
remediation; leadership requires little training.
Secondary/Counseling Groups
attempt to reduce the severity or the length of time of disturbing
behaviors; a problem is present but is not usually severe (ex. grief
group).

focused on conscious issues; not likely psychodynamic;
leadership requires some training.
