Document Summary

Finished notes from 03/29/16 - forgot to do them on 3/31/16: development of peer sociability: classic functional analysis (dunphy, 1963) Nature has a role to play in peer development. Idea is that each stage of peer sociability leads to another stage. Success in one stage leads to success in the next stage (see below) Infancy-toddlerhood & preschool age (read in text) Middle childhood (by 6-10 yrs) - a quick overview: Same-sex cliques emerge (function of is) to form: Mixed-sex cliques then join (function of is) to form: Via direct access to partners & relational capacity formation. Girl often joins his friendship groups (isolation?) Four components make up sexual intelligence? (*reading os c. 1, p. 2) Capacity for sexual response is present from birth (e. g. , pleasure of genital stimulation); likely undifferentiated from other forms of pleasure vs. pubertal stage of sexuality. Infantile pelvic thrust presumably means something quite different to the infant: stage-salient issues.
