Dynamical systems theory

The systems theory was created by Dr. Bowen in the 1950’s in response to the observation of family adaptation to anxiety and stress (Cash, 2014). In the video, Cash explains that in Dr. Bowen’s theory: family members are emotionally connected, affect each other’s thoughts, feelings and actions, they seek other members’ approval and support and react to the needs, expectations and distress of their family members (2014). In the family systems theory: families are complex and interdependent…

The dual system processing slow, high-energy, voluntary (system 2) is supported by ideal and fast, low-energy, involuntary (system 1) is supported by real. We use both ideal and real in order to help ourselves to come to an understanding of the world we live in. Dual system processing is what our brain use to respond to our surroundings. Slow, high-energy, voluntary (system 2) allows us to stop and think of our mistake, then be able to correct it, and fast, low-energy, involuntary (system 1)…

He went on to develop a theory called the ecological system, this theory is an approach to the study of human development. It also consists of studying the nature of human beings and how they develop.

Our body as we know it is a complex system as well as the class room environment where skill learning takes place. This is due to the multiple moving parts inside the systems. Complex systems also have other facets to them such as having multiple levels to them, having attractor states to do things in certain ways, having self-emergent discovery, affordances constraints, as well as things working together independently but together as a whole. Our bodies being complex as well as the class room…

For this particular family, there are numerous theories that would work well when it comes to describing their interrelationships, however, the theory that stood out to me the greatest would be, systems theory. This theory is described in a way that emphasizes the whole group instead of each individual separately. System theory suggests that a family system, which includes the members of the family and their roles, is greater than the individual persons…

and theories relate to the child development with the special focus on risk, protective factors, and resilience of the children.

Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Model The Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Model was developed by Urie Bronfenbrenner’s, and asserts that a child’s or any individual’s development is directly influenced by the environment around them. In his model, Bronfenbrenner’s identifies five levels of an individual’s environment, which affect personal development of that person. These levels are microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem and chronosystem. The microsystem encompasses the individual’s…
