Document Summary
Reviewed piaget"s stages, connected stages to brain development. Stressed that these connections were essential if social work was going to continue to claim to use a biopsychosocial approach. St. john (2010) looked at how young children incorporated scripts and cultural knowledge into their exploration of musical instruments. Also discussed vygotsky"s zone of proximal development. She talked about cross-scripting how they can use each other"s knowledge to further knowledge/understanding. Focused on exploring genetic and environmental influences on observed associations between listening comprehension, reading motivation, and reading comprehension. Found that listening and reading comprehension were largely heritable but also influenced by variance in nonshared environment. Reading motivation was related to reading comprehension through overlapping child- specific aspects of the environment. These overlapping child-specific aspects of the environment can be anything operating at the individual level. Such as: illness affective school attendance and performance; individual interaction with the child or what the child evokes from others (scarr and mccartney"s evocative effect)
