Social cognitive theory

Bronfenbrenner’s model, it states that, the relationship between the adults and children are “bidirectional”, i.e. it affects and influences each other’s behaviour (Berk, 2013). Through our personal experiences with children, we assent with the above theory. Hence, we choose the topic of Mother-Baby Interaction and Child’s needs. We believe that, the bonding and the positive interaction between a mother and her child will lead to the optimum wellbeing of her child. As this is a pair work, we…

The phylum chordate is one of the first phylum’s everybody learns in school. This is because it includes the human species and a lot of other animals that we know, in which they all have a spine aka vertebrate. All animals in the chordate have similar characteristics, sometime through their life cycle, this can include when they are an embryo. All of this phylum have pharayneal slits which are a series of opening that connect the outside of their neck with the inside of their throat, these are…

Looking into the famous Miller pyramid which was proposed by George Miler in 1990 which has four stags or levels know,knows how,show how and does as shown in figure 1. Miller differentiated between the third level show how and the fourth level does on the fact , does the student kowns if he is being eaxamined or not (John Norcini). So based on Miller pyramid it can be considered that show how can predict the performane at the does lvl. However, recently there has been a lot of evidence…

There were three level in Kohlberg's theory, Pre-conventional morality, Conventional morality, and Postconventional morality. Along with the three levels there were six stages that came with it. The first stage is obedience and punishment, where a child learns to obey rules to avoid punishments…

The Palmar Grasp Reflex is essential to my skill, jump roping. This reflex appears at birth and is stimulated by touch to the palm of the hand. As a response the child does a flexion grasp that does not include the thumb. This contributes to my skill because it prepares for voluntary grasping. During the Fundamental Patterns Period a child becomes “skillful” at grasping. When jump roping one has to be able to the jump rope firmly while turning it over the head. This reflex contributed to my…

function. At the center of Levinson's theory is, a person's life makeup is shaped largely by their social and physical atmosphere, and it mainly involves family and work. Other elements such as religion, origin, and class are often central as well. Like Levinson’s seminal theory, Erikson's model is simple and elegant, yet very complex. The theory is a basis for broad argument and analysis of personality and behavior. Similarities regardless of the focus of every theory differ essentially.…

While reading chapter 6 called Cognitive Development in Infancy, I was able to reflect and come up with many questions, concerns, and comments about the material being read. This chapter talked about Piaget’s theory on infant development. There were three different things that were discussed in this theory. There is cognitive process, the sensorimotor stage, and then they evaluate Piaget’s sensorimotor stage. Cognitive process is developed mental processes, such as perception, memory, language…

In " A Hot/Cool-System Analysis of Delay of Gratification: Dynamics of Willpower", Mischel,et al further explains the "two systems" theory he mentioned in his article of "Delay of Gratification in Children". In "Delay of Gratification in Children", Mischel proposed the idea of two different stimuli such as hot and cool stimuli, he argues these two different type of stimuli affect the children's delay behavior significantly. They explains hot and cool systems connecting with children's will power…

I agree with both Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky that human understanding develops in cognitive ways. Both theorists believed cognitive development begins from an early age. Humans change and develop their thinking in reasoning, concepts, memory and language as they mature. According to (McDevitt, Ormrod, Cupit, Chandler & Aloa, 2013) “Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky, both of whom examined the active manner in which children learn, though the differed radically in their explanations”. Classroom…

Latin word “adolescere” meaning “growing up” (The Psychology book, 2012 pg. 47)”. It involves developing a sense of identity, cognitive development, physical and sexual development; and transitioning through puberty, from the age of 11 to 20 years (K. Cherry, 2010).…
