Social contexts and socioemotional development
BRONFENBRENNER’S ECOLOGICAL THEORY
Five Environmental Systems
range
from close interpersonal interactions to broad-based influences of culture.
The five
systems are the microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem, and chronosystem
Evaluating Bronfenbrenner’s Theory
Criticisms of Bronfenbrenner’s theory are that it gives too little attention to biological and cognitive factors in children’s development
it does not address the step-by-step developmental changes that are the focus of theories such as Piaget’s and Erikson’s.
Positive
It provides one of the few theoretical frameworks for
systematically examining social contexts on both micro and macro levels, bridging
the gap between behavioral theories that focus on small settings and anthropological
theories that analyze larger settings.
Intrumental
His theory has been instrumental in showing
how diff erent contexts of children’s lives are interconnected. As we have just discussed, teachers need to consider not just what goes on in the classroom but also
what happens in students’ families, neighborhoods, and peer groups.
Eight Stages of Human Development
Each stage consists of a developmental task that confronts individuals with a crisis.
For Erikson, each crisis is not catastrophic but rather a turning point of increased
vulnerability and enhanced potential.
Potential
The more successfully an individual resolves
each crisis, the more psychologically healthy the individual will be. Each stage has
both positive and negative sides.

mistrust
