INTRODUCTION Development is defined as the distinct changes which happen physically and mentally throughout the lifespan of a person. It is a continuous process. There are four major developmental theories which are put forward by Sigmund Freud, Erik Erikson, Jean Piaget, and Lawrence Kohlberg. Each of the above said developmental theories focuses on the emotion, behavior, physical changes and the mental development of a person. It is very important for everyone to know these developmental stage…

Howard Gardner Howard Gardner is known for his theory on multiple intelligences, and his belief that people learn in different ways (Lane, n. d.). Gardner suggests that there are seven types of learners: visual-spatial, bodily kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, linguistic, and logical-mathematical (Lane, n. d.). In 1997, Garden added an eighth intelligence, naturalist (Bennett, 2014). School systems must realize that all children do not learn in the same ways, and teachers must…

Jean Piaget’s study of the development of reasoning gives us the best insights into how we develop the self. This is best understood by assessing the insights of Cartesian dualism. ‘Cogito ergo sum’ is Latin for ‘I think, therefore I am’. In contrast, subjective interactionists claim that the “I” is the subjective self, whereas the “me” is objective. The older I get, the better I am at reasoning with my surroundings; even if I consider my body to be part of my environment. I adapt to my body…

children are off at school, further developing their cognitive, physical, and social/emotional processes. School helps foster cognitive development in middle/late childhood because children are learning new skills and applying them in school and on tests. Jean Piaget suggested that children in this stage go through what he calls the Concrete-Operational period, where children are limited to what is “tangible and real,” (Kail & Cavanaugh, 2014, p. 158). In this stage, children are able to perform…

Human Development Writing Project: Media Analysis Today there are many different theories and perspectives on the how’s, what’s and why’s of human development. With so many theories out there it is hard to tell which one is an accurate portrayal in terms of the research that is being done. However, on the other hand one could say that with so many theories out there it is easier to find information in order to further one’s research. The first step in looking for human development research…

Lawrence Kholberg believed that moral reasoning was not fully established by the ages 10-11 as Jean Piaget had originally proposed. In fact, Kholberg theorized that moral development had a lengthier and much more difficult progress (Robbins et al., 2012, p. 277). Like Piaget, he believed that each stage is connected and builds upon to apply moral reasoning throughout many different circumstances. However, there is no direct link between age and ethical perceptive (Robbins et al., 2012, p. 277).…

baby learning to use their feet to scoot about the floor. That in turn leads to standing, and walking. Eventually running is accomplished, but these steps are more than likely in order. This is just how cognitive development works as well. He mentions Jean Peagit (a Swiss clinical psychologist, and pioneer in the field of child development). Early in his research, he discovered that younger children were usually wrong in responding to his questions, than older children, or adults. This was the…

The Sensorimotor Stages of Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development has six sub-stages. The most intriguing characteristics of a child’s behavior happen during the first two years of their life. Jean Piaget said “During the earliest stages the child perceives things like a solipsist who is unaware of himself as subject and is familiar only with his own actions.” Infants live in the present and are not mentally developed enough yet to thinking of the future or look back on the past. Object only…

development and socialisation are crucial facets that refer to the psychological and emotional fluctuations that occur in human beings between birth and the end of adolescence, as the individual progresses from acclimatization to maximizing autonomy. Jean Piaget was the first psychologist to make a systematic study of cognitive development. The cognitive development was a progressive reorganization of mental processes as a result of biological maturation and environment experiences. [1]…

hyper-active children of various ages requires an understanding of Developmental Psychology. Starting with the 9 month old baby, things can get a bit complicated especially at this age where they haven’t developed communication skills yet. According to Jean Piaget, the child should have developed a schema at this age. Eric Erickson’s research also show that at this age the baby will try to sensor everything orally. Placing the baby in a play pen with some of his or her favorite toys especially…
