(Kathleen Stassen Berger, 2011 p. 57). The biological development of a young child’s brain directly assists the cognitive development of the brain and vice versus. According to Lev Vygotsky’s sociocultural idea, all children have the ability to learn despite of all mental disabilities (p.49). The knowledge and capabilities that are acquired depends on what is deemed important by their culture. To further understand a how a crime can be committed by a young child, Albert Bandura’s theory that humans can learn without reinforcement called “modeling” is a good explanation.
However, Donald Winnicott and Kendall Walton believe that play is a theory which applies itself to many different areas of life, beginning in the infant years and progressing through adolescence into adult hood. The philosopher Walton focuses on the concept of imagining and ‘the game world.’ To Walton the game world consists of any time you enter into a game or a world of make believe. His focus is primarily on children and infants and the way they explore and make sense of the world through the medium of play. ‘Play in children is a way of understanding and exploring the world.’ (Walton, K. 1990). He believes that if we want to understand art and performance we should look to children for guidance.

Running-Head: Play Therapy Yves Gerald Play Therapy and its Implication in Child Development 2/7/12 Introduction Montaigne, a French classical writer and philosopher of 16th century made this statement: “If you wish to understand your child, you need to understand his play.” In fact, researchers consider play the leading vehicle for learning in childhood. Play is essential to young child’s health (Life-Span Development, p. 27) and has many functions. Theorists, indeed, have focused on different aspects of play and highlighted a long list of functions. According to Freud and Erikson, play helps the child master anxieties and conflicts (Lifespan, p.27). It permits the child to work off excess physical energy and to release unexpressed tensions.
Camille Marie freschi Year 12 IB Psychology (SL) CLOA: Evaluate the schema theory making reference to research studies The cognitive level of analysis is based on how mental processes such as perception, attention, language, memory and thinking in the brain processes information. It concerns the way in which we take in information from the outside world, how we make sense of that information and what use we make of it. Human beings are information processors and mental processors guide our behaviour. People actively process information by interpreting what they perceive based on what they already know. In 1932, Bartlett suggested the schema theory as one of the ways in which people process information.
Operant VS Respondent Behavior i Our text describes operant behavior as a behavior that is produced by an antecedent stimuli. In the case of the video clip, I believe the young girl demonstrates operant behavior. Operant behavior is behavior who’s frequency is dependent on the history of consequences. It is evident when the therapist selects the sensory pea for the child to use, and the child finds the bouncing sensation reinforcing. The history of reinforcement (the bouncing) will increase from this selected activity.
I would do this by carrying out initial assessments, in the form of a learner questionnaire. The content of this would hopefully give me beneficial feedback on preferred learning styles, learner requirements i.e. considering individual needs and disabilities for total inclusion. These assessments would also give me a general idea of the backgrounds and experience of the learners. Using the Learner questionnaire as a guide I would collate all the information to aid me in designing the course.
Module One: Participating in Psychological Research Introduction Often to really understand an issue, you need to live it, to do it. This assignment will help you understand some issues present in conducting research in psychology. Take a spin as a subject participating in a research study and see what you think about the process. The Assignment Visit one of the psychological research Internet sites listed below and take part in one of the research studies. 1.
When we take care of children, we are also helping the human species find the truth and understand the world. (Gopnik et al. 1999: 211) This chapter begins by looking at what elements need to be in place to ensure that children develop to their full potential and have opportunities to explore and extend all their capacities and capabilities. It will further explore the generalized impact on children’s development of social breakdown because of war and conflict – looking in detail at the developmental processes of early childhood, and noting what happens when that progress is interrupted. The major theories of play will be outlined, with the emphasis here on play not only as a necessary feature of childhood and essential component of development, but also as a means to regain ‘lost childhoods’.
Understanding transactions and improving communication is therapeutically beneficial. An individual’s life Script is “an extensive unconscious life plan” (Berne 1961, p23) which is formed early in life by “external influences and internal vulnerability” (Lister-Ford, p3). Berne described repetitive patterns of behaviour that people play out confirming their life script which he called Games. He gave each Game descriptive and recognisable titles such as “I told you so” and Kick me”, helping to make his theories interesting and accessible. Berne (1961, p21) “Structural and transactional analysis offers a systematic, consistent theory of personality and social dynamics derived from clinical experience, and an actionistic, rational form of therapy which is suitable for, easily
