- Self reflective: people have different perspectives and different motivations
- 10-12=-2 mutual= recognizes mo
Rubins model of peer relations
depicts a system with nested levels of complexity- indv
friendship as a dynamic system
- any event can be considered a system, with a specific purpose.
- substantial or sustained changes to any one element ultimately change the entire system
family as a dynamic system
Each element has its own needs and resources, defining each role within the family describes its role within the system. It basically takes into account everyones relationship with everyone else, and how these relationships are unique and indirectly affect every other relationship within the system.
caregiver child attachment
- A strong , enduring emotional bond between an infant and a caregiver. ‘attachment’ is understood through attachment theory, ethological approaches to psychology. Bring attachment styles with us in different relationships.
- Linear relationships between brain mass and walking, showing infants are really reliant on caregivers because they need to grow in order to be self sufficient.
Psychodynamic
- Linear relationships between brain mass and walking, showing infants are really reliant on caregivers because they need to grow in order to be self sufficient.
Ethology approaches to psychology:
ensure the survival of the child= point of attachment, a strong bond ensures the infant is protected, fed and cared for when they arnt able to do it on their own.
Psychodynamic approaches to psychology:
infant creates a mental representation of caregiver, which informs their first understanding of self and relationships more broadly (helps them understand how the world functions).
co regulation of emotions
- ## parent co regulates the infants’ emotions because prefrontal motor cortex isn’t 100% developed
caregiver-child attachment
indiscriminate sociability= 0-2 months: child= innate signals caregiver responds
- attachment in the making: 2-7 months: child shows preference for familiar people, caregiver responds to infants needs and builds trust
clear cut attachment: child actively seek caregiver and caregiver provides a secure base, facilitate exploration
reciprocal relationships: 24+ months” child recognizes caregivers’ feelings and the parent provides mutual regulation, working partnership
four attachment patterns
- secure attachment
- anxious resistent: ambivalent
- anxious avoidant: indifferent
- disorganized or disorientated.
consequences of infant attachment patterns
toddlerhood: cooperation with caregivers and family members
- early childhood: ability to ask for and respond to teachers help
adulthood: parents attachment behaviors contribute to infant’s attachment patterns
prototype model
- attachment pattern is relatively fixed from infancy. adult attachment pattern will not change during transition to parenthood.
revisionist model
attachment pattern can change with new meaningful relationships, adult attachment pattern will change during the transition to parenthood
the sibling coalition
- Older siblings help with socio-cognitive capacitym caregiving and protection, teaching
- Younger siblings: reciprocate behaviour, offer trust and admiration
Bost siblings help with prosocial behavior, dealing with parents and other children
bioecological approach
microsystem: parents, family rules, siblings behavior
mesosystem: parents r’ship, daycare arrangements
exosystem: parents work, transport ability
macrosystem: electricity, media
chronosystem: laws, values, roles
