He states that as a child develops, the interaction within these environments becomes more complex. This complexity can arise as the child’s physical and cognitive structures grow and mature.
URIE BRONFENBRENNER
(1917-2005)
he model suggests the interactions between the individual and their environment, categorized into various systems, shape their development over time.
Organizes contexts of development into five levels of external influence.
Levels are categorized from the most intimate level to the broadest.
Bioecological System Theory
refer to the exploration or understanding of how biological aspects of an individual (such as genetics, physiology, etc.) interact with their environment (ecological factors) in shaping their sense of self.
It could involve studying how external factors, such as the environment, culture, and social interactions, influence an individual’s identity and self-perception from a biological perspective.
Bio Ecological Aspect of the Self

The represents the direct influences on an individual.
Microsystem
The involves the interconnections between different microsystems.
For example, the relationship between a child’s school and their family would be considered a mesosystem.
Events or changes in one microsystem can have ripple effects on others.
Mesosystem
The includes settings that individuals may not directly experience but that can still affect them, such as a parent’s workplace or community services.
Indirect influences from these settings can impact the individual’s development.
Exosystem
The refers to the broader cultural, societal, and historical context in which individuals live.
It encompasses cultural norms, values, and societal structures that influence development. This level considers the overarching systems that shape the other levels.
Macrosystem
Theis made up of the environmental events and transitions over the life course including any sociohistorical events such as change in family structure, address, parents’ employment status, as well as immense society changes such as economic cycles and wars..
