Definition A process of change throughout the years of life to the progression from birth to death. A change of human needs and functions : • Physical Development • Psychosocial Development (Erik H.Erikson’sTheory) • Psychosexual Development (S. Freud’s Theory) • Cognitive Development (Jean Piaget’s Theory) • Moral Development (Lawrence Kohlberg’s Theory’s)
Influential factors: • Intrinsic : genetic/disposition, as a function of age • Extrinsic : society, environment & culture
Understanding the human life cycle • To better understand the patient’s individual needs at various stages of life. • To develop a better doctor-patient relationship • To identify and assess various problems more appropriately and realistically. • To set up a more realistic & problem oriented treatment plan.
Erikson’s Theory of Psychosocial Development Basic principles: • Stresses the psychosocial drives rather than the psychosexual drives • the crisis of development originates in the personal goals to social expectation; not simply the inhibition of psychosexual drives.
Erikson’s Theory of Psychosocial Development The “Epigenetic Principle” The notion that development proceeds from a universal plan that continually builds upon itself at appropriate times. 'anything that grows has a ground plan, and out of this ground plan the parts arise, each part having its time of special ascendancy, until all parts have arisen to form a functional whole'
Erikson’s Theory of Psychosocial Development • The psychosocial crises, universally determined crisis, that builds on and incorporates previous experiences, current cultural influences and biological change. • Unresolved crises may result in personality psychopathology which may persist in adulthood. • Eight stage sequence of development ranging from birth to old age: • the stages are not strictly tied to chronological age, nor are they always easy to separate.
Stages of Psychosocial Development • Stage 1 – Oral Sensory • Stage 2 – Muscular-Anal • Stage 3 – Locomotor • Stage 4 – Latency • Stage 5 – Adolescence • Stage 6 – Young Adulthood • Stage 7 – Middle Adulthood • Stage 8 – Maturity • Trust v Mistrust • Autonomy v Shame & Doubt • Initiative v Guilt • Industry v Inferiority • Identity v Role Confusion • Intimacy v Isolation • Generativity v Stagnation • Integrity v Despair
Stage 1 – Oral Sensory • birth to 1 year (infancy) • basic conflict is trust vs. mistrust • the important event is feeding and the important relationship is with the mother • the infant must develop a loving, trusting relationship with the mother/caregiver through feeding, teething and comforting • failure to resolve this conflict can lead to sensory distortion, and withdrawal
Stage 2 – Muscular-Anal • age 1 to 3 years (toddler) • Basic conflict is autonomy vs. shame/doubt • The important event is toilet training and the important relationship is with the parents • The child’s energy is directed towards mastering physical skills such as walking, grasping and muscular control • The child learns self control but may develop shame, doubt, impulsivity or compulsion if not handled well
Stage 3 – Locomotor • age 3 to 6 years (preschool) • basic conflict is initiative vs. guilt • the important event is independence and the important relationship is family • the child continues to become more assertive in exploration, discovery, adventure and play • the child may show too much force in this stage causing feelings of guilt • failure to resolve this conflict can lead to ruthlessness and inhibition
Stage 4 – Latency • age 6 to 12 years (school age) • the basic conflict in this stage is industry vs. inferiority • the important event is school and the important relationships are teachers, friends and neighbourhood • the child must learn to deal with new skills and develop a sense of achievement and accomplishment • failure to do so can create a sense of inferiority, failure and incompetence
Stage 5 – Adolescence • age 12 to 20 years (adolescent) • the basic conflict is identity vs. role confusion • the important event is development of peer relationships and the important relationships are peers, groups and social influences • The teenager must achieve a sense of identity in occupation, sex roles, politics and religion. In addition, they must resolve their identity and direction. • Failure to make these resolutions can lead to the repression of aspects of the individual for the sake of others (fanaticism)
Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development Basic principles Intelligence as a particular instance of biological adaptation to the environment → A process of equilibration
Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development cont • The content of intelligence: ‘what’ • The Structure of Intelligence : ‘how’and ‘why’ • Through interaction of the mind with the external world • fits the world (external structures & organization) into his own mental framework (cognitive structure) • Two important points in the building of cognitive structures : • The person is actively involved in the building process • An environment with which it interacts is necessary for structural development (stimulation )
1. Sensori-Motor Stage (0-2 years old) • Sensory contact understanding. • The child explores the world surrounding them using it’s senses • Initially sucking/grasping reflex and moving onto reaching for objects out of reach. • Major development within this stage: object permanence • Initially the baby cannot understand a object exists out of sight. • As the baby reaches around 7/8 months a child will begin to understand the object/person still exists when out of sight.
Pre-Operational stage (2-7years old) • Toddler can understand the use of symbols and language. This is an example of symbolic thinking i.e. pretend play • Language is now understood • Development of: • Animism…child understands ‘bad table’, believes inanimate objects have feelings as they do. • Egocentricism…Can only see the world from their own point of view • All these developments take place in the Pre-Operational Stage. • Theory of mind (understanding of mental processes)
Pre-Operational stage (2-7years old) • Still very egocentric Mountain task
Concrete Operational Stage (7-11 years) • The children are now able to conserve • Conservation: the awareness that a quantity remains the same despite a change in its appearance • They understand that although the appearance has changed the thing it self does not. ₌ → →
Kohlberg’s Theory of moral development Definition of morality The ability to distinguish between right from wrong. Involving: • Cognition : role taking, reasoning, decision making. • Feelings : empathy, altruism and care • Behaviors : helping others, resisting temptation, etc. A person described as having a high moral standards is: • Aware of the needs and feelings of others (cognition) • Concerned about others (affective), and likely to respond on it appropriately • Display that awareness and concern in dealing with other people (behavior)
Kohlberg’s Theory of moral development cont Deficiencies in any of the three moral dimensions would indicate a “less than perfect” moral character. Theories regarding perspectives on moral development : • Social learning theory, emphasizes on behavioral dimensions • Psychoanalytic Theory, emphasizes on the affective dimension • Cognitive theory, emphasizes on the cognitive dimension
Kohlberg’s Theory of moral development cont Level I –Preconventional Stage 1. Punishment and obedience orientation Stage 2. Concern with satisfying own needs Level II – Conventional Stage 3. “good boy good girl” orientation Stage 4. “law and order” orientation Level III – Postconventional Stage 5. The social contract Stage 6. The universal good
The Life Cycle and the Care Profession. • Familiarity with the life cycle is extremely important to doctors/nurses • The changing flow of life provides both challenge and opportunity to those who are in the care professions • Knowledge of the development stages will give you insight • Into what is important to the patient • How she/he might respond to care • The integration of an individual’s physical, social, sexual, cognitive and moral components results in a person different from any other individual • Optimal effective care should be tailored to the unique characteristics of its recipient. • Design care that will meet the unique needs of the ill individual
