Notas do Editor
- Failure leads to feelings of inferiority in school or social settings
- Trait: stable pattern of responses across situations Longitudinal research suggests some stability Emerge during middle childhood
- Longitudinal research suggests some stability Traits emerge during middle childhood
- Comparisons in self-descriptions – “I’m smarter than most kids.” A person’s understanding of his or her enduring psychological characteristics Emerges from early to middle childhood Becomes more complex Uses comparisons in self-descriptions Less tied to external features More centered on feelings and ideas
- Social comparisons are important Encouragement from valued sources, such as parents Actual experiences have the greatest impact
- Key components The amount of discrepancy between what a child desires and what child thinks he has achieved Overall support the child feels she receives from important people, especially parents and peers Self-esteem is stable in the short term but somewhat less so over periods of several years
- Child’s own direct experience with success or failure Labels and judgments from others Value a child attaches to some skill or quality is affected by peers’ and parents’ attitudes
- Begins about age 7 Better understanding that same person plays different roles in life, such as parent and spouse
- Moral reasoning is the process of making judgments about the rightness or wrongness of specific acts. Piaget studied children playing games to help understand moral development. Moral realism – beginning of the middle childhood period. Moral realism: Belief that rules can’t be changed because they come from authority figures Belief that violating rules leads to punishment Moral relativism: Realization that rules can be changed if all agree Punishment doesn’t come by rules violations—but by being caught! Accidents are not caused by “naughty” behavior Moral relativism begins at age 8. Children make up rules to games – but everyone follows the same rules when playing the game. 8-year-olds do weigh intentionality when making moral judgments. 12-year-olds tend to remain egocentric in their moral reasoning.
- Parental Expectations Parents recognize children’s increasing abilities to self-regulate Ability to conform to parental standards of behavior without direct supervision Parents must be good at self-regulations Higher expectations with parental monitoring increases self-regulation Culture may play a role in the age of expected behaviors
- Parental authoritative style more often produces socially competent children Children both assertive and responsible in relationships
- Caregiver relationship – one sibling is a quasi-parent for the other. Buddy relationship – both members of pair try to be like each other. Critical or conflicting relationship – teasing, quarreling, and attempts at domination. Only children As well adjusted as children with siblings Tend to have higher achievement test scores Siblings Affectionate sibling relationships mitigate stressful events such as parental divorce Positively contribute to children’s social and emotional understanding Rival relationship – low in any form of friendliness or support. Casual relationship – siblings have relatively little to do with each other.
- Children are open, supportive and cooperative with friends
- Appears in every culture Visible as early as 3 or 4 Preference for same-sex playmates increases across middle childhood. Rough and tumble play occurs in boys and is avoided by girls Boys establish stable peer groups with dominance hierarchies Girls develop social skills based on self-disclosure
- Boundary Violations Ritualized situations where boys and girls play together, such as chasing games Girls are more often play in pairs or small, fairly exclusive groups. Boys appear to focus on competition and dominance Girls include more agreement, compliance, and self-disclosure However cooperative play most common among both sexes
- See Table 10.1 In all boy groups, physical aggression remains high School-age boys often show approval for aggression
- Relational aggression – ostracism, cruel gossip, facial expressions of disdain. Girls display more relational aggression Aggression aimed at damaging the other person’s self-esteem or peer relationships, ostracism, cruel gossip Directed more at other girls Both boys and girls increase retaliatory aggression Aggression to get back at someone who has hurt you Peers support retaliatory aggression while parents find it unacceptable
- Popular children Attractive and physically larger Display positive, supporting, nonpunitive, and nonaggressive social behaviors toward most other children Take turns in conversation Explain things Regulate strong emotions Perceptive and empathetic
- Withdrawn/rejected Realize they are disliked by peers Eventually give up trying for peer acceptance and become socially withdrawn Experience feelings of loneliness Aggressive/rejected Disruptive and uncooperative but think peers like them Unable to control expression of strong emotions Interrupt peers more and fail to take turns Boys may be rejected for aggression, or it may make them more popular
- Neglected or rejected Being very different from peers Shy children Highly creative children Neglected children may be lonely and depressed
- To be input by students. 7.5 million children at home by themselves at least an hour each weekday Effects depend on behavioral history, age, gender, neighborhood, and parental monitoring More poorly adjusted peer relationships and school performance but behavior may precede self-care May be vulnerable to abuse by older children Self-care children in low-income neighborhoods experience more negative effects Parental monitoring critical for effective outcomes Children under age 9 or 10 should not care for themselves.
- Figure 10.5 Characteristics of parents in poverty Talk to children less Provide fewer age-appropriate toys Spend less time providing educational opportunities Stricter discipline and emphasis on obedience Reduces options for parents – may not be able to afford prenatal care, fewer choices for affordable child care, living in smaller and less-than-adequate housing.
- These children more often show symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder—sleep disturbances, angry outbursts High rates of school failure
- False. See Figure 10.6 Causal link between violent television and aggressive behavior Significant short-term aggression in children who watched aggressive programs Those who watch more television more aggressive long term Leads to emotional desensitization Prosocial behavior enhanced by quality programs that teach children moral and social values Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood Sesame Street Significant short-term aggression in children who watched aggressive programs Those who watch more television more aggressive long term Leads to emotional desensitization Prosocial behavior enhanced by quality programs that teach children moral and social values Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood Sesame Street
- See Figure 10.6 (page 285) 8-year-old boys who watched a lot of violent television were already more aggressive with peers.
- Wealthier children more often have and use computers at home Use for school work, games, email, chat rooms Boys become more verbal communicators on mixed-sex computer messaging
- Assessment of educational improvement BUT—teachers end up “teaching to the test” Textbooks become geared to the tests However students may try harder and there are signs of improvement too
