Theories of Human Development (10 pts.) Directions: For the following scenario, determine which comments might be made by a(n): 1. psychosocial theorist 2. learning theorist/behaviorist 3. social cognitive theorist 4. Piagetian cognitive-developmental theorist 5. Vygotskyan sociocultural theorist 6. cognitive neuroscience theorist 7. ecological systems theorist Scenario: Ricardo, a third grader, is having trouble sitting still and paying attention in class, so his parents consult some developmental specialists about their son's behavior. They receive the following comments: a.) Ricardo is being reinforced for this behavior by getting attention from the teacher and his classmates. Let's focus on rewarding appropriate classroom behavior. b.) Ricardo's behavior may have many causes, from genetics to the reinforcers at school, to growing up in the 21st century Internet age. We need to use a variety of different approaches to address the many influences of his behavior. c.) Ricardo is at the stage where he is facing the challenge of meeting his teacher's expectations. He may think he cannot do as well as his peers and is giving up rather than continuing to work on improving d.) Children are active learners who need to explore and discover information for themselves Ricardo's behavior may be due to an unstimulating classroom environment.
e.) While it is true that a child's attention span increases gradually, if most of his classmates can pay attention, then Ricardo's behavior could be due to under-activity in the frontal lobes and imbalances in his neurochemistry. f.) Is there a student that Ricardo admires acting up in class? Ricardo may be trying to imitate him or her to gain his peers' approval. g.) Children need to talk with more knowledgeable others to learn. It's possible that Ricardo needs more interaction with people to stay engaged in class, especially if that is part of his cultural background. Reflection question (write at least 3 sentences): How might one's theoretical perspective influence parenting choices? (3 pts.)
