During the 19th and 20th centuries that a new conceptualization of childhood and how children ought to behave emerged in both popular culture and the medical world. A model child embodied the ideals necessary for the new industrial economy; self-regulated behavior and orderly social relations. Childhood became the critical period for learning restraint and developing a proper social identity in order to grow up to be a successful adult. This prevailing characterization of a good child generated its opposite: the troublesome child (Strohl, M., 2011). Due to this change in view on how children should behave, it has led the way juveniles conduct themselves in recent times; which leads to the following quote from Okunola Matthias Olufemi Dada Ojo, At this point, it is imperative to ask the question: who are Juveniles?

Case Analysis Paul at Plastec has found himself in a tough predicament because he is the first HR manager in a booming company. Paul has the opportunity to take this company to the next level if he can get and keep the required manning. Our learning team will be conducting an analysis on what skills sets Paul could be in need of when hiring a new person to assist him, which employment laws are most important to Paul, what Paul’s #1 priority for training will be, how important it is to update job descriptions for managers and three possible recruiting methods for Plastec workers. Paul has been trying to manage the HR department independently and it is creating many issues.

The analysis presented the influence of past relationships on the development of future relationships in a individual’s life. Thematic analysis showed that significant relationships during childhood did influence future relationships later on in the individuals life. Introduction: Developmental psychology predominantly focuses on the link between relationships in childhood and future relationships in adulthood and whether early age experiences has an influence on individual’s relationships in the future. A social constructionists point of view is based on people constructing meaning through language; the perspective is underpinned by epistemological and ontological views of ways in which individuals can extract meaning from the social world. The main principle of lifespan psychology is that human development is influenced by external (historical and cultural) and internal (psychological and physiological) factors.
Discuss the influence of childhood and adolescence on adult relationships Psychologists have identified ways in which experiences in childhood and adolescence tend to influence adult relationships. John Bowlby (1982) was the first to suggest that the attachment styles we develop in early childhood affect future relationships. He said that based on experiences with the primary attachment figure individuals develop an internal working model, which is a cognitive framework of expectations to help understand and interact with the world, including future relationships. Sroufe and Fleeson (1986) elaborated that the internal working model includes the individual’s expectations of emotional experiences, how emotional discomfort is likely to be handled by the individual and the individual’s expectations of how reliable another person is likely to be. Adult relationships are therefore effected by the internal working model according to early attachment styles; this is a concept referred to as the continuity hypothesis, i.e.

One of the biggest ideas in psychology is that what you experience in the early years of your life will influence the development throughout the rest of your life-span. The idea is that if a client walks into your office and is complaining about something in their life, you can trace it back to a situation that they experienced in their childhood. One the other hand there are those who argue that later life experiences can change an individual and are just as important to development as the early years. This is considered the stability-change issue, which is the degree to which early characteristic in an individual continue throughout life or can be changed (Santrock, 2007, para. 52).

The reason behind is that students attending college or universities go through the life stages of making important and permanent decisions that may affect their future, handling substantial changes alone are unhealthy. Therefore, the testing of mentoring with college students is logical, in sense of the population needing such. However, as the mentoring benefits begin to aid with guidance and assistance for the students, during the study the desire for more or longer duration may occur. The following are requirements to participate in this study: a) junior or senior of college, b) willingness to seek or readiness of own temporary mentor, c) first time experience with a mentor. Typically, junior or senior year of college the stress levels peak because individuals are reaching close to the actual adulthood and beginning of a career where supportive measures can be useful.
