Document Summary
Chapter 8 social & personality development in early childhood. Freud"s & erikson"s psychoanalytic perspective offered key insights into the emotional components of development in the early yrs. Autonomy vs shame/doubt = centres around the toddler"s new mobility & desire for autonomy. Initiative vs guilt = ushered in by new cognitive skills & ability to plan which increases desire to take initiative. Social cognitive theory = social/personality development relates to improvements in the cognitive domain. Person perception = ability to classify others according to categories incl. age, gender, race: classifying their friends/family as nice or not nice doesn"t have to be physical/observable things. Understanding rule categories = young children use classification skills to distinguish b/t social conventions & moral rules. Understanding others" intentions = young children understand intentions to some degree: children understand that intentional wrong-doing is deserving of greater punishments than unintentional rule transgressions.
