HUMAN
DEVELOPMENT
Definition
• Human Development is the scientific study the
  patterns of growth and change that occurs throughout
  life
• Two Types of Change:
• 1.Quantitative change refers to physical growth like
  progress in height or weight.
• 2. Qualitative change refers to the change of
  function of an organ, resulting to improve efficiency
  and accuracy.
Aspects of Human
Development
• 1. Physical development - changes in the body
  structure and motor skills.

• 2. Perceptual development - development of
  sensory capacities such as the changes in the seeing
  and hearing abilities of infants.
Aspects of Human
Development
• 3. Cognitive or Intellectual development - change
  in mental abilities, learning capacity, memory,
  reasoning thought processes and language.

• 4. Personality and Social development - changes
  in self-concept, gender identity and one’s quality of
  interpersonal relationship.
8 Stages of Development
  •   1. Prenatal stage
  •   2. Infancy (0-2 years old)
  •   3. Early childhood (3-6 years old)
  •   4. Middle childhood (7-12 years old)
  •   5. Adolescence (13-19 years old)
  •   6. Young adulthood (20-35 years old)
  •   7. Middle adulthood (36-49 years old)
  •   8. Late adulthood/Old age (50 years old-
      Death)
Process of Development
   Heredity is the transmission of traits from parents to
    offspring
   Every 28 days a female ovulates and releases an egg
    cell to fallopian tube.
   At the height of copulation the male parent releases
    sperm cells (300-500 million) inside the female’s
    vagina. The healthy sperms are programmed to swim
    and seek out the egg cell and fertilize it.
Female Egg Cell




Male Sperm Cell
Process of Development
   Out of the millions of sperms, only about 50 of them will
    be able to come close to the egg cell
   The sperms will release enzyme that dissolves the jelly-
    like coating of the egg cell.
   Meanwhile, the egg is no passive participant; it actually
    embraces the lucky sperm cell.
   To avoid penetration by more than one sperm, the egg
    produces brief electrical shocks on its surface (lasting
    about 30 seconds) followed by a hard protein coat.
Process of Development
   The sperm cell is held down on the egg’s membrane,
    while the coat rises above it, pushing all the other
    sperms away.

   The egg pulls the sperm inside itself, and moves its
    nucleus to meet that of the sperm.
Process of Development
   Fertilization, the union of the egg and the sperm,
    produces a single cell that is called the zygote, which
    contains 23 chromosomes (strands of genetic material)
    contributed by the sperm and 23 chromosomes
    contributed by the egg.
   Chromosomes are made up of deoxyribonucleic acid
    (DNA), each segment of the DNA is a gene, the basic
    unit of heredity.
Human Chromosomes
Process of Development
   These 46 chromosomes provide programming for
    inherited characteristics like blood type, height, skin
    color, and so forth. The 46 chromosomes align in pairs
    (23 pairs).

   The first 22 pairs are called autosomes, while the 23rd
    pair are called sex chromosomes, they will determine
    the sex or gender of the developing baby.
Process of Development
   All eggs and 50% of all sperm cells contain x sex
    chromosomes, while only the remaining 50% the
    sperm cells have a y sex chromosome.

   A zygote with xx chromosome will become female
    and a zygote with xy chromosome will become a
    male.
Process of Development
   There are two types of genes, the dominant genes,
    which carry dominant traits (the stronger one), and
    recessive genes which carries recessive traits (the
    weaker one).

   Incomplete dominance occurs when the dominant
    trait was not able to cover up the recessive trait.
Process of Development
   Codominance happens when two different dominant
    traits coexist in the offspring, as in the case of a
    combination of blood type A and blood type B, which
    results to having blood type AB.

   Some traits are called sex-linked traits. These traits
    only appear in a particular gender (males)
Process of Development
   Examples of such are: baldness, hemophilia and
    colorblindness, all manifested by the male population.

   The genetics cluster of traits that you have, and are
    observable from the outside is your phenotype.

   Your total Genetic make up, observable and not, is
    your genotype.
Kinds of Twins
• 1. Identical or Monozygotic Twins – Twins that
  developed from a single zygote that split. They look
  alike because they share almost the same genetic
  make up.
• 2. Fraternal or Dizygotic Twins – Twins the
  developed from the simultaneous union of 2 pairs of
  egg and sperm cell. They do not share the same
  genetic make up and may be of different gender, one
  male, one female.
Sex Chromosome Disorder
• Klinefelter’s Syndrome (XXY)
• - Occurs when a genetic male has an extra x
  chromosome
• - Abnormal testes, no sperm production,
  reduced testosterone production
• - Tall, poor muscular development, enlarged
  breasts
Klinefelter’s Syndrome
Klinefelter’s Syndrome
Sex Chromosome Disorder

   • Turner’s Syndrome (XO)
   • - There is a missing chromosome

   • -   Short, no menstruation
   • -   Sexually underdeveloped females
Turner’s Syndrome
Turner’s Syndrome
Sex Chromosome Disorder
   • Superfemale Syndrome (XXX)
   • - Intellectually deficit females
   • - Appears quite normal

   • Supermale Syndrome (XYY)
   • - Taller than normal males
   • - Below average intelligence
Autosomal Abnormalities
• Down’s Syndrome (trisomy 21)
• - An extra sex chromosome appeared in the
  21st pair of autosomes
• - Mentally retarded
• - Sloping forehead, protruding tongue, short
  limbs, flattened nose, oriental in appearance
Down’s Syndrome
Down’s Syndrome
Autosomal Abnormalities
• Edward’s Syndrome (trisomy 18)
• - An extra sex chromosome appeared in
  the 18th pair of autosomes
• - Abnormally small mouth, malformed
  ears, elongated skull, clenched hand, short
  breast bone
• - With congenital heart disease
Edward’s Syndrome
Edward’s Syndrome
Autosomal Abnormalities
• Patau’s Syndrome (trisomy 13)
• - An extra sex chromosome appeared in the 13th
  pair of autosomes
• - Defects of eye, nose, lips, ears and forebrain
• - Having one eye at extreme cases
• - Has more that the normal number of fingers or
  toes
Patau’s Syndrome
Autosomal Abnormalities
   Other congenital defects (like congenital blindness,
    heart disease) may be a result of maternal diseases
    (like malaria, chicken pox, German measles),
    malnutrition, alcohol, smoking, emotion problems,
    pills, drugs, endocrine irregularities and blood
    incompatibilities.
   Collectively, these environmental forces that hinder
    the healthy development of an unborn child are
    called teratogens.
Teratogens
   Rubella (German Measles) – Blindness, deafness,
    heart abnormalities
   Syphilis – mental retardation, physical deformities,
    maternal miscarriage
   Addictive drugs – low birth weight, addiction to the
    drug, possible death from withdrawal
   Smoking - premature birth, low birth weight and
    length
Teratogens
   Alcohol – mental retardation, low weight, small head,
    limb deformities
   Radiation from X-rays – Physical deformities, mental
    retardation
   Inadequate diet – reduced brain growths, low weight
    and length
   Being your than 18 – premature birth, increased
    incidence of Down syndrome
   Being older than 35 - increased incidence of Down
    syndrome
Assumptions About the
Stages of Human Development
   Behaviors at a given stage are organized around a
    dominant theme or a coherent set of characteristics.
   Behaviors at one stage are qualitatively different from
    the behaviors at an earlier or later stage.
   All children go through the same stages in the same
    order, but may vary in pace.
PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT
Prenatal Development

 1. Germinal Stage (Fertilization – 2 weeks)
 - Rapid cell division
 - By the end of the stage, the fertilized egg
    becomes a blastocyst (about the size of a
    pinhead) and plants itself in the wall of the
    uterus.

     fade; downy hair disappears.
Prenatal Development
   We as newborns come equipped with reflexes ideally
    suited for our survival.
   We as newborns, prefer sights and sounds that
    facilitate social responsiveness; we turn our heads on
    the direction of human voices; we gaze longer at a
    drawing of a face-like image than at a bull’s-eye
    pattern.

                             Capabilities of a
                                Newborn
   We prefer to look at objects 8 to 12 inches away, which
    just happen to be the approximate distance between a
    nursing infant’s eyes and a mother’s.




                               Capabilities of a
                                  Newborn
   Within days of birth, our brain’s neural networks were
    stamped with the smell of our mother’s body; thus, a
    week-old nursing baby, placed between a gauze pad
    from its mother’s bra and one from another nursing
    mother will usually turn toward the smell of it own
    mother.


                               Capabilities of a
                                  Newborn
   At three weeks, if given a pacifier that sometimes
    turns on recordings of its mother’s voice and
    sometimes that of a stranger’s. An infant will suck
    more vigorously when it hears its now-familiar
    mother’s voice.




                             Capabilities of a
                                Newborn
   Reflexes are unlearned, involuntary responses that
    occur automatically in the presence of certain stimuli
   They are critical for survival
   Rooting reflex – turning one’s heads towards things
    the touch their cheeks




                                     Reflexes
   Sucking reflex – infants suck things that touch their
    lips
   Gag reflex – reflex to clear the throat
   Startle reflex – a series of movements in which an
    infant flings out the arms, fans the fingers, and
    arches the back in response to sudden noise



                                      Reflexes
   Babinski Reflex – a baby’s toes fan out when the
    outer edge of the sole of the foot is stroked
   Grasping Reflex
   Infants lose these primitive reflexes after the first few
    months of life; replaced with more complex an
    organized behaviors.

Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human
Development

• A. Psychodynamic:
• 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages
•    c. Phallic Stage (4-5) reflects the
  preschooler’s gratification involving the genitals.

• 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages
•     c. Phallic Stage
•     Oedipus Complex – sexual attachment of a
  male      child to his mother
  – Electra Complex – sexual attachment of a
     female child to her father. The girl envies her
     father for possessing a penis and wishes he
     would share with her the valued organ that she
     lacks.
Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human
Development

 • A. Psychodynamic:
 • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages
 •    d. Latency Stage (6 to puberty) – sexual
   desires are repressed and the entire child’s
   available libido is channeled into socially
   acceptable outlets such as schoolwork and
   vigorous play that consume most of the child’s
   physical and psychic energy
Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human
Development

• A. Psychodynamic:
• 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages
•    e. Genital Stage (Puberty – onwards) – is
  characterized by the maturation of the
  reproductive system, production of sex
  hormones, and a reactivation of the genital zone
  as an area of sensual pleasure.

Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human
Development

     • B. Learning Theory
     • Concentrates on how learning influences
       behavior.
     • Emphasizes the role of experience.
     • Stresses the influence of consequences on
       behavior.
     • Recognizes that people learn from watching
       others.

Development

 •   B. Learning Theory
 •   1. Waston’s Behaviorism
 •   Learning determines our behavior.
 •   Experience is sufficient to explain the
     course of development.

Development
 • B. Learning Theory
 • 2. B.F. Skinner’s Operant Conditioning
 • The consequences of a behavior determine
   whether it will be repeated.
 • A pleasant consequence increases the chance
   a behavior will be repeated.
 • An unpleasant consequence decreases the
   chance a behavior will be repeated.
Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human
Development
 • B. Learning Theory
 • 2. B.F. Skinner’s Operant Conditioning
 • Positive Reinforcement - A pleasant
   consequence that increases behavior.
 • Negative Reinforcement - Strengthening a
   behavior by removing or avoiding an
   unpleasant condition.
 • Punishment - An unpleasant consequence
   that decreases the frequency of a behavior.

 •   3. Bandura’s Social Learning Theory
 •   Observational Learning, or Imitation
 •   People learn by watching others.
 •   Imitation is more likely when subject of
     observation is seen as smart, popular, or
     talented. Imitation is more likely when subject of
     observation is rewarded for the behavior

 • C. Cognitive-Developmental Theory
   • Emphasizes the development of the
     thought processes as we mature.
   • Two approaches to the development of
     cognition:
   • We develop our thinking in stages
     (Piaget, Kohlberg).

• 1. Jean Piaget’s Cognitive Development
    Theory
   • Children gradually learn more about how the
      world works by little “experiments” in which
      they test their understanding.
   • Cognitive development consists of stages in
      which children’s understanding of their
      surroundings become increasingly complex
      and accurate.

•explores world as little experimenters and develop schemas through
the senses and motor activities.
•Discovers relationships between their actions and consequences.
•An important concept acquired at this stage is object permanence:
before 8 months, the baby will stop searching for an object if it is
covered (out of sight, out of mind), but around 8 months, baby will
readily physically search for the hidden object, indicating that he or
she has already has a mental representation of the object- this is
object permanence

                                      2 – 7 years
•on top of object permanence, ability for symbolic thinking emerges; seen from
the child’s use of symbolic play and use of language.
•Use of language/words as symbol for things particularly has critical
importance.
•Implications for play: better to let child play with unstructured materials to help
facilitate his/her symbolic thinking.
•Child has still several limitations:
1.ego-centrism – inability to consider another person’s point of view.
2.animism – all things are living or animated and capable of intentions, feelings
and consciousness.
3.inability to decenter – inability to focus on simultaneous thoughts at the same
time.
4.Inability for conservation concepts – inability to follow transformations
mentally.

•less egocentric: can now imagine other person’s point of
view; now aware that events outside the self have causes
outside the self.
•Thinking begins to be more logical but still limited to
concrete experience, i.e., can make logical judgments
based on stimuli that are present to the sense.
•Can perform more operations, e.g. counting, classifying
and thus can better understand the principles of
conservation.

•hypothetical deductive reasoning develops; can now reason logically
and deal with abstractions, not just concrete things.
•Capacity for abstractions enables person to use and understand, for
instance, algebraic signs and metaphorical speech.
•Able to consider all variables and possibilities simultaneously, make
hypotheses, and solve problems by tackling these possibilities
systematically.
•Use of the pendulum problem to test formal operational thinking.

4.human development presentation

  • 2. Definition • Human Development is the scientific study the patterns of growth and change that occurs throughout life • Two Types of Change: • 1.Quantitative change refers to physical growth like progress in height or weight. • 2. Qualitative change refers to the change of function of an organ, resulting to improve efficiency and accuracy.
  • 3. Aspects of Human Development • 1. Physical development - changes in the body structure and motor skills. • 2. Perceptual development - development of sensory capacities such as the changes in the seeing and hearing abilities of infants.
  • 4. Aspects of Human Development • 3. Cognitive or Intellectual development - change in mental abilities, learning capacity, memory, reasoning thought processes and language. • 4. Personality and Social development - changes in self-concept, gender identity and one’s quality of interpersonal relationship.
  • 5. 8 Stages of Development • 1. Prenatal stage • 2. Infancy (0-2 years old) • 3. Early childhood (3-6 years old) • 4. Middle childhood (7-12 years old) • 5. Adolescence (13-19 years old) • 6. Young adulthood (20-35 years old) • 7. Middle adulthood (36-49 years old) • 8. Late adulthood/Old age (50 years old- Death)
  • 6. Process of Development  Heredity is the transmission of traits from parents to offspring  Every 28 days a female ovulates and releases an egg cell to fallopian tube.  At the height of copulation the male parent releases sperm cells (300-500 million) inside the female’s vagina. The healthy sperms are programmed to swim and seek out the egg cell and fertilize it.
  • 7. Female Egg Cell Male Sperm Cell
  • 8. Process of Development  Out of the millions of sperms, only about 50 of them will be able to come close to the egg cell  The sperms will release enzyme that dissolves the jelly- like coating of the egg cell.  Meanwhile, the egg is no passive participant; it actually embraces the lucky sperm cell.  To avoid penetration by more than one sperm, the egg produces brief electrical shocks on its surface (lasting about 30 seconds) followed by a hard protein coat.
  • 9. Process of Development  The sperm cell is held down on the egg’s membrane, while the coat rises above it, pushing all the other sperms away.  The egg pulls the sperm inside itself, and moves its nucleus to meet that of the sperm.
  • 10. Process of Development  Fertilization, the union of the egg and the sperm, produces a single cell that is called the zygote, which contains 23 chromosomes (strands of genetic material) contributed by the sperm and 23 chromosomes contributed by the egg.  Chromosomes are made up of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), each segment of the DNA is a gene, the basic unit of heredity.
  • 12. Process of Development  These 46 chromosomes provide programming for inherited characteristics like blood type, height, skin color, and so forth. The 46 chromosomes align in pairs (23 pairs).  The first 22 pairs are called autosomes, while the 23rd pair are called sex chromosomes, they will determine the sex or gender of the developing baby.
  • 13. Process of Development  All eggs and 50% of all sperm cells contain x sex chromosomes, while only the remaining 50% the sperm cells have a y sex chromosome.  A zygote with xx chromosome will become female and a zygote with xy chromosome will become a male.
  • 14. Process of Development  There are two types of genes, the dominant genes, which carry dominant traits (the stronger one), and recessive genes which carries recessive traits (the weaker one).  Incomplete dominance occurs when the dominant trait was not able to cover up the recessive trait.
  • 15. Process of Development  Codominance happens when two different dominant traits coexist in the offspring, as in the case of a combination of blood type A and blood type B, which results to having blood type AB.  Some traits are called sex-linked traits. These traits only appear in a particular gender (males)
  • 16. Process of Development  Examples of such are: baldness, hemophilia and colorblindness, all manifested by the male population.  The genetics cluster of traits that you have, and are observable from the outside is your phenotype.  Your total Genetic make up, observable and not, is your genotype.
  • 17. Kinds of Twins • 1. Identical or Monozygotic Twins – Twins that developed from a single zygote that split. They look alike because they share almost the same genetic make up. • 2. Fraternal or Dizygotic Twins – Twins the developed from the simultaneous union of 2 pairs of egg and sperm cell. They do not share the same genetic make up and may be of different gender, one male, one female.
  • 18. Sex Chromosome Disorder • Klinefelter’s Syndrome (XXY) • - Occurs when a genetic male has an extra x chromosome • - Abnormal testes, no sperm production, reduced testosterone production • - Tall, poor muscular development, enlarged breasts
  • 21. Sex Chromosome Disorder • Turner’s Syndrome (XO) • - There is a missing chromosome • - Short, no menstruation • - Sexually underdeveloped females
  • 24. Sex Chromosome Disorder • Superfemale Syndrome (XXX) • - Intellectually deficit females • - Appears quite normal • Supermale Syndrome (XYY) • - Taller than normal males • - Below average intelligence
  • 25. Autosomal Abnormalities • Down’s Syndrome (trisomy 21) • - An extra sex chromosome appeared in the 21st pair of autosomes • - Mentally retarded • - Sloping forehead, protruding tongue, short limbs, flattened nose, oriental in appearance
  • 28. Autosomal Abnormalities • Edward’s Syndrome (trisomy 18) • - An extra sex chromosome appeared in the 18th pair of autosomes • - Abnormally small mouth, malformed ears, elongated skull, clenched hand, short breast bone • - With congenital heart disease
  • 31. Autosomal Abnormalities • Patau’s Syndrome (trisomy 13) • - An extra sex chromosome appeared in the 13th pair of autosomes • - Defects of eye, nose, lips, ears and forebrain • - Having one eye at extreme cases • - Has more that the normal number of fingers or toes
  • 33. Autosomal Abnormalities  Other congenital defects (like congenital blindness, heart disease) may be a result of maternal diseases (like malaria, chicken pox, German measles), malnutrition, alcohol, smoking, emotion problems, pills, drugs, endocrine irregularities and blood incompatibilities.  Collectively, these environmental forces that hinder the healthy development of an unborn child are called teratogens.
  • 34. Teratogens  Rubella (German Measles) – Blindness, deafness, heart abnormalities  Syphilis – mental retardation, physical deformities, maternal miscarriage  Addictive drugs – low birth weight, addiction to the drug, possible death from withdrawal  Smoking - premature birth, low birth weight and length
  • 35. Teratogens  Alcohol – mental retardation, low weight, small head, limb deformities  Radiation from X-rays – Physical deformities, mental retardation  Inadequate diet – reduced brain growths, low weight and length  Being your than 18 – premature birth, increased incidence of Down syndrome  Being older than 35 - increased incidence of Down syndrome
  • 36. Assumptions About the Stages of Human Development  Behaviors at a given stage are organized around a dominant theme or a coherent set of characteristics.  Behaviors at one stage are qualitatively different from the behaviors at an earlier or later stage.  All children go through the same stages in the same order, but may vary in pace.
  • 38. Prenatal Development 1. Germinal Stage (Fertilization – 2 weeks) - Rapid cell division - By the end of the stage, the fertilized egg becomes a blastocyst (about the size of a pinhead) and plants itself in the wall of the uterus.
  • 39. Fertilization Play video-human fertilization
  • 40. Cell Division Day 1 Day 3 Day 6
  • 41. Prenatal Development 2. Embryonic Stage (end of 2 weeks – 2 months) - Major body systems and organs develop. - Organism becomes vulnerable to environmental influences. - Most likely occurrences of chromosomal abnormalities.
  • 42. Prenatal Development 2. Embryonic Stage - 1st month – Measures quarter of an inch - 2nd month – As big as an adult’s smallest toe; back bone formed; legs and arms begin to form; facial features take shape.
  • 44. Prenatal Development 3. Fetal Stage (end of 2 months – Birth) 3rd month – 3” ; 25 grams; Assumes human form; large head; starts bone formation (teeth buds, nails); genital becomes more recognizable. 4th month – 13.5 cm.; 120 grams; about the size of a small orange; broad face, eyes widely separated; capable of swallowing and kicking; nails/eyebrows start to grow.
  • 47. Prenatal Development 5th month – 7.3”; 440 grams; vital organs developed; more frequent movement. 6th month – 9”; 1.75 lbs.; large head, lean body; with skin wrinkles; skin pink in color; fine downy hair (lanugo) cover the body; eye brows, eye lashes visible. 7th month – 10.6”; 1.36 kg.; can open eyes; can stretch and kick; skin is red and wrinkled.
  • 48. Prenatal Development 8th month – 12.2”; 5lbs.; fat begins to store in the body; lungs fully developed; head/body are proportionate; assume position for delivery. 9th month – 14.2” ; 7lbs.; redness and wrinkles fade; downy hair disappears.
  • 50. We as newborns come equipped with reflexes ideally suited for our survival.  We as newborns, prefer sights and sounds that facilitate social responsiveness; we turn our heads on the direction of human voices; we gaze longer at a drawing of a face-like image than at a bull’s-eye pattern. Capabilities of a Newborn
  • 51. We prefer to look at objects 8 to 12 inches away, which just happen to be the approximate distance between a nursing infant’s eyes and a mother’s. Capabilities of a Newborn
  • 52. Within days of birth, our brain’s neural networks were stamped with the smell of our mother’s body; thus, a week-old nursing baby, placed between a gauze pad from its mother’s bra and one from another nursing mother will usually turn toward the smell of it own mother. Capabilities of a Newborn
  • 53. At three weeks, if given a pacifier that sometimes turns on recordings of its mother’s voice and sometimes that of a stranger’s. An infant will suck more vigorously when it hears its now-familiar mother’s voice. Capabilities of a Newborn
  • 54. Reflexes are unlearned, involuntary responses that occur automatically in the presence of certain stimuli  They are critical for survival  Rooting reflex – turning one’s heads towards things the touch their cheeks Reflexes
  • 55. Sucking reflex – infants suck things that touch their lips  Gag reflex – reflex to clear the throat  Startle reflex – a series of movements in which an infant flings out the arms, fans the fingers, and arches the back in response to sudden noise Reflexes
  • 56. Babinski Reflex – a baby’s toes fan out when the outer edge of the sole of the foot is stroked  Grasping Reflex  Infants lose these primitive reflexes after the first few months of life; replaced with more complex an organized behaviors. Reflexes
  • 58. Theories of Development • Theory • “An organized set of ideas that are designed to explain development.” • Essential for developing predictions about behavior. • Predictions result in research that help to support or clarify the theory
  • 59. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • Psychodynamic - Freud, Erikson • Learning - Watson, Skinner, Bandura • Cognitive - Piaget, Kohlberg
  • 60. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • Psychoanalytic • Observations and notes that he made about life histories of his mentally disturbed patients • Hypnosis, free association, dream analysis • We have goals or motives that must be satisfied
  • 61. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • Instincts, Goals and Motives • Human behavior is energized by psychodynamic forces • Psychic (mental) energy
  • 62. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • Biological Instincts • Eros ( life instinct) – helps the child to survive; directs life sustaining activities such as respiration, eating, sex and the fulfillment of all other bodily needs • Thanatos (death instinct) – set of destructive forces present in all human being ex. arson, murder, war, masochism
  • 63. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • 3 Components of Personality • Id (pleasure principle) – serve the instincts by seeking objects that will satisfy them; seeking immediate gratification of instinctual needs
  • 64. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • 3 Components of Personality • Ego (reality principle) – find realistic ways of gratifying the instinct; block the id’s irrational thinking; ability to delay gratification • Superego (moral principle) – represents the ideal and strives for perfection rather than for pleasure or reality
  • 65. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • a. Oral Stage (0-1) – reflects the infant’s need for gratification from the mother. An infant’s eating, sucking, spitting, and chewing do not only satisfy hunger, but also provide pleasure.
  • 66. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • b. Anal Stage (2-3) – reflects the toddler’s need for gratification along the rectal area. During this stage, children must endure the demands of toilet training.
  • 67. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • c. Phallic Stage (4-5) reflects the preschooler’s gratification involving the genitals. Children at this stage gratify their sex instinct by fondling their genitals and developing an incestuous desire for the opposite sex parent.
  • 68. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • c. Phallic Stage • Oedipus Complex – sexual attachment of a male child to his mother – Electra Complex – sexual attachment of a female child to her father. The girl envies her father for possessing a penis and wishes he would share with her the valued organ that she lacks.
  • 69. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • d. Latency Stage (6 to puberty) – sexual desires are repressed and the entire child’s available libido is channeled into socially acceptable outlets such as schoolwork and vigorous play that consume most of the child’s physical and psychic energy
  • 70. Major Theoretical Perspectives on Human Development • A. Psychodynamic: • 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages • e. Genital Stage (Puberty – onwards) – is characterized by the maturation of the reproductive system, production of sex hormones, and a reactivation of the genital zone as an area of sensual pleasure.

Then they seek to become or identify with their fathers. For girls, they begin with a strong attachment to their mother but realize that boys have penis and girls don’t have. They blame the mother of this inferiority, and develop Penis envy. Their love is transferred to the father who has the sex organ she wants. This is called Electra complex. But, they still must avoid the mother’s disapproval and so they identify with their mother.

JEAN PIAGET’S STAGES OF COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT SENSORIMOTOR 0 –2 years •explores world as little experimenters and develop schemas through the senses and motor activities. •Discovers relationships between their actions and consequences. •An important concept acquired at this stage is object permanence: before 8 months, the baby will stop searching for an object if it is covered (out of sight, out of mind), but around 8 months, baby will readily physically search for the hidden object, indicating that he or she has already has a mental representation of the object- this is object permanence

JEAN PIAGET’S STAGES OF COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT PRE-OPERATIONAL 2 – 7 years •on top of object permanence, ability for symbolic thinking emerges; seen from the child’s use of symbolic play and use of language. •Use of language/words as symbol for things particularly has critical importance. •Implications for play: better to let child play with unstructured materials to help facilitate his/her symbolic thinking. •Child has still several limitations: 1.ego-centrism – inability to consider another person’s point of view. 2.animism – all things are living or animated and capable of intentions, feelings and consciousness. 3.inability to decenter – inability to focus on simultaneous thoughts at the same time. 4.Inability for conservation concepts – inability to follow transformations mentally.

JEAN PIAGET’S STAGES OF COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT CONCRETE OPERATIONAL 7 – 11 years •less egocentric: can now imagine other person’s point of view; now aware that events outside the self have causes outside the self. •Thinking begins to be more logical but still limited to concrete experience, i.e., can make logical judgments based on stimuli that are present to the sense. •Can perform more operations, e.g. counting, classifying and thus can better understand the principles of conservation.
  • 93. JEAN PIAGET’S STAGES OF COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT FORMAL OPERATIONAL 11 years onwards •hypothetical deductive reasoning develops; can now reason logically and deal with abstractions, not just concrete things. •Capacity for abstractions enables person to use and understand, for instance, algebraic signs and metaphorical speech. •Able to consider all variables and possibilities simultaneously, make hypotheses, and solve problems by tackling these possibilities systematically. •Use of the pendulum problem to test formal operational thinking.
