  1. Biopsychosocial Perspective • Biological • genetic • physiological • Cognitive • processes • knowledge • Socioemotional • interactions with others • emotional reactions • personality

  2. Periods of Human Development(western culture) • Prenatal: conception - birth • Infancy: birth - toddler • Early childhood: toddler - beginning of school • Middle/Late Childhood: beginning of school through beginning of puberty • Adolescence: puberty - adulthood

  3. Developmental Issues • Nature--Nurture: Genetics and Experience • Continuous--Discontinuous: Gradual change across the lifespan or radical change at particular points in life • Relationship of early and late experiences to developmental outcomes

  4. Cognitive Development • Jean Piaget • Stage theory—discontinuous • Structuralist—mental world organized into cohesive units • Constructivist—organism constructs unique meaning around experiences • Equilibration—organism seeks a balance of equilibrium between internal and external states

  5. Stages of Cog. Dev. (Piaget) • Sensorimotor—infancy; knows world through direct sensory and motor experience • Preoperational—emergence of symbolic thought and language; egocentric, lacks conservation, centration,
