Origins of Child 
Development Theories
6th - 15th centuries
Medieval period






Preformationism: children seen as little adults.
Childhood is not a unique phase.
Children were cared for until they could begin
caring for themselves, around 7 years old.
Children treated as adults (e.g. their clothing,
worked at adult jobs, could be married, were made
into kings, were imprisoned or hanged as adults.)
16th Century
Reformation period







Puritan religion influenced how children
were viewed.
Children were born evil, and must be
civilized.
A goal emerged to raise children effectively.
Special books were designed for children.
17th Century
Age of Enlightenment


John Locke believed in tabula
rasa



Children develop in response to
nurturing.



Forerunner of behaviorism

www.cooperativeindividualism.org/ locke-john.jpg
18th Century
Age of Reason


Jean-Jacques Rousseau


children were noble savages, born with an
innate sense of morality; the timing of growth
should not be interfered with.



Rousseau used the idea of stages of
development.



Forerunner of maturationist beliefs
19th Century
Industrial Revolution


Charles Darwin


theories of natural selection and survival
of the fittest



Darwin made parallels between
human prenatal growth and
other animals.



Forerunner of ethology
20th Century
Theories about children's development expanded
around the world.


Childhood was seen as worthy of special
attention.



Laws were passed to protect children,
Psychoanalytical 
Theories
Beliefs focus on the formation of personality. According
to this approach, children move through various stages,
confronting conflicts between biological drives and social
expectations.
Sigmund Freud
Psychosexual Theory




Was based on his
therapy with troubled
adults.
He emphasized that a
child's personality is
formed by the ways
which his parents
managed his sexual and
aggressive drives.
Erik Erikson
Psychosocial Theory






Expanded on Freud's theories.
Believed that development is life-long.
Emphasized that at each stage, the child
acquires attitudes and skills resulting from
the successful negotiation of the
psychological conflict.
Identified 8 stages:









Basic trust vs mistrust (birth - 1 year)
Autonomy vs shame and doubt (ages 1-3)
Initiative vs guilt (ages 3-6)
Industry vs inferiority (ages 6-11)
Identity vs identity confusion (adolescence)
Intimacy vs isolation (young adulthood)
Generativity vs stagnation (middle adulthood)
Integrity vs despair (the elderly)
Behavioral and Social 
Learning Theories
Beliefs that describe the importance of the
environment and nurturing in the growth of a
child.
Behaviorism


Developed as a response to
psychoanalytical theories.



Behaviorism became the dominant view
from the 1920's to 1960's.
John Watson





www.psych.utah.edu./…/Cards/Watson.html

Early 20th century, "Father of
American Behaviorist theory.”
Based his work on Pavlov's
experiments on the digestive
system of dogs.
Researched classical conditioning
Children are passive beings who
can be molded by controlling the
stimulus-response associations.
B. F. Skinner


Proposed that children "operate" on their
environment, operational conditioning.



Believed that learning could be broken down
into smaller tasks, and that offering
immediate rewards for accomplishments
would stimulate further learning.
Social Learning Theory
Albert Bandura
 Stressed how children learn by observation
and imitation.
 Believed that children gradually become
more selective in what they imitate.
Biological Theories
Belief that heredity and innate biological
processes govern growth.
Maturationists: G. Stanley Hall
and Arnold Gesell


Believed there is a predetermined biological
timetable.



Hall and Gesell were proponents of the
normative approach to child study: using
age-related averages of children's growth
and behaviors to define what is normal.
Ethology
Examines how behavior is determined by a
species' need for survival.
 Has its roots in Charles Darwin's research.
 Describes a "critical period" or "sensitive
period,” for learning

Konrad Lorenz
 Ethologist,

known for his
research on
imprinting.
Attachment Theory
John Bowlby applied ethological
principles to his theory of attachment.
 Attachment between an infant and her
caregiver can insure the infant’s survival.

Cognitive Theories
Beliefs that describe how children learn
Cognitive development
theory

Jean Piaget






Children "construct" their
understanding of the world
through their active involvement
and interactions.
Studied his 3 children to focus not
on what they knew but how they
knew it.
Described children's
understanding as their "schemas”
and how they use:
 assimilation
 accommodation.
Piaget’s Cognitive
Development Stages


Sensori-motor




Preoperation




Ages 2-7: the child uses metal representations of objects and is
able to use symbolic thought and language

Concrete operations




Ages birth - 2: the infant uses his senses and motor abilities to
understand the world

Ages 7-11; the child uses logical operations or principles when
solving problems

Formal operations


Ages 12 up; the use of logical operations in a systematic fashion
and with the ability to use abstractions
Lev Vygotsky








Socio-Cultural Theory
Agreed that children are active
learners, but their knowledge is
socially constructed.
Cultural values and customs
dictate what is important to
learn.
Children learn from more expert
members of the society.
Vygotsky described the "zone of
proximal development", where
learning occurs.

ced.ncsc.edu/hyy/devtheories.htm
Information Processing Theory




Uses the model of the computer to describe
how the brain works.
Focuses on how information is perceived,
how information is stored in memory, how
memories are retrieved and then used to
solve problems.
Systems Theory
The belief that development can't be explained
by a single concept, but rather by a complex
system.
Urie Bronfenbrenner
Ecological Systems Theory





The varied systems of the
environment and the
interrelationships among the
systems shape a child's
development.
Both the environment and biology
influence the child's development.
The environment affects the child
and the child influences the
environment.
Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Model










The microsystem - activities and
interactions in the child's immediate
surroundings: parents, school,
friends, etc.
The mesosystem - relationships
among the entities involved in the
child's microsystem: parents'
interactions with teachers, a school's
interactions with the daycare
provider
The exosystem - social institutions
which affect children indirectly: the
parents' work settings and policies,
extended family networks, mass
media, community resources
The macrosystem - broader cultural
values, laws and governmental
resources
The chronosystem - changes which
occur during a child's life, both
personally, like the birth of a sibling
and culturally, like the Iraqi war.

Overview of Child Development

  • 2. Child Development  Definition:   Change in the child that occurs over time. Changes follow an orderly pattern that moves toward greater complexity and enhances survival. Periods of development:      Prenatal period: from conception to birth Infancy and toddlerhood: birth to 2 years Early childhood: 2-6 years old Middle childhood: 6-12 years old Adolescence: 12-19 years old
  • 3. Domains of Development Development is described in three domains, but growth in one domain influences the other domains.  Physical Domain:   Cognitive Domain:   body size, body proportions, appearance, brain development, motor development, perception capacities, physical health. thought processes and intellectual abilities including attention, memory, problem solving, imagination, creativity, academic and everyday knowledge, metacognition, and language. Social/Emotional Domain:  self-knowledge (self-esteem, metacognition, sexual identity, ethnic identity), moral reasoning, understanding and expression of emotions, self-regulation, temperament, understanding others, interpersonal skills, and friendships.
  • 4. Theories  What is a theory?   Orderly set of ideas which describe, explain, and predict behavior. Why are theories important?   To give meaning to what we observe. As a basis for action -- finding ways to improve the lives and education of children.
  • 6. 6th - 15th centuries Medieval period     Preformationism: children seen as little adults. Childhood is not a unique phase. Children were cared for until they could begin caring for themselves, around 7 years old. Children treated as adults (e.g. their clothing, worked at adult jobs, could be married, were made into kings, were imprisoned or hanged as adults.)
  • 7. 16th Century Reformation period     Puritan religion influenced how children were viewed. Children were born evil, and must be civilized. A goal emerged to raise children effectively. Special books were designed for children.
  • 8. 17th Century Age of Enlightenment  John Locke believed in tabula rasa  Children develop in response to nurturing.  Forerunner of behaviorism www.cooperativeindividualism.org/ locke-john.jpg
  • 9. 18th Century Age of Reason  Jean-Jacques Rousseau  children were noble savages, born with an innate sense of morality; the timing of growth should not be interfered with.  Rousseau used the idea of stages of development.  Forerunner of maturationist beliefs
  • 10. 19th Century Industrial Revolution  Charles Darwin  theories of natural selection and survival of the fittest  Darwin made parallels between human prenatal growth and other animals.  Forerunner of ethology
  • 11. 20th Century Theories about children's development expanded around the world.  Childhood was seen as worthy of special attention.  Laws were passed to protect children,
  • 12. Psychoanalytical  Theories Beliefs focus on the formation of personality. According to this approach, children move through various stages, confronting conflicts between biological drives and social expectations.
  • 13. Sigmund Freud Psychosexual Theory   Was based on his therapy with troubled adults. He emphasized that a child's personality is formed by the ways which his parents managed his sexual and aggressive drives.
  • 14. Erik Erikson Psychosocial Theory     Expanded on Freud's theories. Believed that development is life-long. Emphasized that at each stage, the child acquires attitudes and skills resulting from the successful negotiation of the psychological conflict. Identified 8 stages:         Basic trust vs mistrust (birth - 1 year) Autonomy vs shame and doubt (ages 1-3) Initiative vs guilt (ages 3-6) Industry vs inferiority (ages 6-11) Identity vs identity confusion (adolescence) Intimacy vs isolation (young adulthood) Generativity vs stagnation (middle adulthood) Integrity vs despair (the elderly)
  • 15. Behavioral and Social  Learning Theories Beliefs that describe the importance of the environment and nurturing in the growth of a child.
  • 16. Behaviorism  Developed as a response to psychoanalytical theories.  Behaviorism became the dominant view from the 1920's to 1960's.
  • 17. John Watson     www.psych.utah.edu./…/Cards/Watson.html Early 20th century, "Father of American Behaviorist theory.” Based his work on Pavlov's experiments on the digestive system of dogs. Researched classical conditioning Children are passive beings who can be molded by controlling the stimulus-response associations.
  • 18. B. F. Skinner  Proposed that children "operate" on their environment, operational conditioning.  Believed that learning could be broken down into smaller tasks, and that offering immediate rewards for accomplishments would stimulate further learning.
  • 19. Social Learning Theory Albert Bandura  Stressed how children learn by observation and imitation.  Believed that children gradually become more selective in what they imitate.
  • 20. Biological Theories Belief that heredity and innate biological processes govern growth.
  • 21. Maturationists: G. Stanley Hall and Arnold Gesell  Believed there is a predetermined biological timetable.  Hall and Gesell were proponents of the normative approach to child study: using age-related averages of children's growth and behaviors to define what is normal.
  • 22. Ethology Examines how behavior is determined by a species' need for survival.  Has its roots in Charles Darwin's research.  Describes a "critical period" or "sensitive period,” for learning 
  • 23. Konrad Lorenz  Ethologist, known for his research on imprinting.
  • 24. Attachment Theory John Bowlby applied ethological principles to his theory of attachment.  Attachment between an infant and her caregiver can insure the infant’s survival. 
  • 26. Cognitive development theory Jean Piaget    Children "construct" their understanding of the world through their active involvement and interactions. Studied his 3 children to focus not on what they knew but how they knew it. Described children's understanding as their "schemas” and how they use:  assimilation  accommodation.
  • 27. Piaget’s Cognitive Development Stages  Sensori-motor   Preoperation   Ages 2-7: the child uses metal representations of objects and is able to use symbolic thought and language Concrete operations   Ages birth - 2: the infant uses his senses and motor abilities to understand the world Ages 7-11; the child uses logical operations or principles when solving problems Formal operations  Ages 12 up; the use of logical operations in a systematic fashion and with the ability to use abstractions
  • 28. Lev Vygotsky     Socio-Cultural Theory Agreed that children are active learners, but their knowledge is socially constructed. Cultural values and customs dictate what is important to learn. Children learn from more expert members of the society. Vygotsky described the "zone of proximal development", where learning occurs. ced.ncsc.edu/hyy/devtheories.htm
  • 29. Information Processing Theory   Uses the model of the computer to describe how the brain works. Focuses on how information is perceived, how information is stored in memory, how memories are retrieved and then used to solve problems.
  • 30. Systems Theory The belief that development can't be explained by a single concept, but rather by a complex system.
  • 31. Urie Bronfenbrenner Ecological Systems Theory    The varied systems of the environment and the interrelationships among the systems shape a child's development. Both the environment and biology influence the child's development. The environment affects the child and the child influences the environment.
  • 32. Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Model      The microsystem - activities and interactions in the child's immediate surroundings: parents, school, friends, etc. The mesosystem - relationships among the entities involved in the child's microsystem: parents' interactions with teachers, a school's interactions with the daycare provider The exosystem - social institutions which affect children indirectly: the parents' work settings and policies, extended family networks, mass media, community resources The macrosystem - broader cultural values, laws and governmental resources The chronosystem - changes which occur during a child's life, both personally, like the birth of a sibling and culturally, like the Iraqi war.
