birth to 2 years; gradually learns to coordinate sensory and motor activities and develops beginning sense of objects existing apart from self.
preoperational stage
2 to 7 years; child remains primarily egocentric but discovers rules that can be applied to new incoming information.
concrete operations stage
7 to 11 years; child can solve concrete problems through the application of logical problem-solving strategies
formal operations stage
11 to adulthood; person becomes able to solve real and hypothetical problems using abstract concepts
Kohlberg's Stages of Moral Development

instrumental purpose

conventional:
interpersonal experiences
the societal point of view

postconvential:
ethics
conscience and logic

Gilligan's three stages of moral development
survival orientation
conventional care
integrated care
denial
defense mechanism; negating an important aspect of reality that one may actually perceive

displacement
defense mechanism; shifting feelings about one person or situation on to another
example: your boss yells at you so you kick the dog when you get home
intellectualization
defense mechanism; avoiding unacceptable emotions by thinking and talking about them rather than experiencing them directly
introjection
defense mechanism; taking characteristics of another person into the self in order to avoid a direct expression of emotions (the emotions originally felt about other person now felt towards self)
example: abused woman blames herself for abuse
isolation of affect
defense mechanism; consciously experiencing an emotion in a "safe" context rather than the threatening context in which it was first unconsciously experienced
example: a person does not show sadness of funeral of family member but weeps uncontrollably at death of pet hamster the next week.
projection
defense mechanism; attributing unacceptable thoughts and feelings to others
example: man does not want to be angry with gf when he is upset with her, so he assumes she is angry with him
rationalization
defense mechanism; using convincing reasons to justify ideas, feelings, or actions so as to avoid recognizing true motives
reaction formation
defense mechanism; replacing an unwanted unconscious impulse with its opposite in conscious behavior
example: person cannot bear to be angry with boss, so after a conflict demonstrates that he believes boss is worthy of loyalty by volunteering to work overtime
regression
defense mechanism; resuming behaviors associated with an earlier developmental stage or level of functioning in order to avoid present anxiety.
example: young man throws temper tantrum to express frustration when he cannot master task on computer
somatization
defense mechanism; converting intolerable impulses into somatic symptoms
example: a person who is unable to express negative emotions develops frequent stomachaches
sublimation
defense mechanism; converting an impulse from a socially unacceptable aim to socially acceptable
example: angry, aggressive young man becomes star on school's debate team
undoing
defense mechanism; nullifying an undesired impulse with an act of reparation

ABCX model of family stress and coping
to understand whether an event in the family system (A) becomes a crisis (X), we need to understand both the family's resources (B) and the family's definitions (C) about the event.
reliability
renders same/similar results on repeated trial
validity
measures what it claims to measure
face/content validity
agreement by experts that an operational definition adequately reflects concept
criterion validity
given measure of concept correlates to established measure of same concept
construct validity
degree to which concept fits into system of theoretical relationships
nominal scale
provides set of categories for sorting/classifying objects on basis of some quality, characteristic, or attribute
e.g: race, gender, marital status, any yes/no.
ordinal/rank scale
reflect inherent ranking/ordering of observations
e.g: social class, military rank
interval scale
characteristics of ordinal plus successive points represent equal distances.
e.g: temp, height, weight, age in years
ratio scale
all characteristics of interval scare, but has absolute zero point, at which it ceases to exist.
e.g: money, distance, count of an object
stratified random sample
based on divisions of population into categories representing some social or demographic characteristic such as social class, age, race, etc
systematic random sample
where every Kth item is selected after first item selected randomly (K=proportion of the sample to the population)

uses groups/clusters from a frame/list and random selection is among clusters
mirroring
repeating back what client said to show you heard
validation

flash of insight, then behavior change
structural family therapy
Minuchin; all families the same; systems perspective; everyone involved in process; family=identified patient
holon
unit of intervention; whole & part; exerts competitive energy for autonomy and self-preservation of whole; within family holon: spouse, parents, sibling subsystems
additive model of risk
multiple risk factors have greater risk of negative outcomes; linear model
multiplicative model of risk
risk factors make you more sensitive to other risk factors; steeper linear progression
curvilinear model of risk
low levels of stress have little impact, but once past the low level threshold, risk increases considerably
social network theory
linkages between people; more concerned with quantity, not so much quality, of relationships
informed consent
-capacity to consent (language, age, culture)
-voluntary (procedure, outcome, implications, benefits/risks)

human behavior is the result of interactions of biological, psychological, and social systems

arbitrary inference
common cognitive distortion; reaching a negative conclusion about a situation with insufficient evidence
magnification
common cognitive distortion; creating large problems out of small ones
minimization
