Exploring the Developing Child and Their Age - An Anthology (Paperback)

Exploring the Developing Child and Their Age: An Anthology provides students with a curated collection of readings that examine various theories in human development and help readers better understand the growth and behavior of youths from early childhood through middle school years. The anthology is divided into four distinct units. Unit I introduces students to theories, theorists, and developmental milestones. The readings provide an overview of the works of theorists Vygotsky and Piaget, explore key theories of human development, and present foundational theories, including Freud's psychoanalytic theory of personality, stage theory of cognitive development, constructivism, and more. Unit II examines the early childhood years with articles that examine psychologies of identity and self, Bowlby's ethological theory of attachment behavior, Vygotsky's theory of creativity, and the concept of socio-culturalism. In Unit III, the readings examine the personal lives and work of Vygotsky and Piaget, how these two theorists influenced each other, and Vygotsky's theory of mind. The final unit features readings that explore the relationship between adolescent anger and current attachment to parents; adolescent development from an agentic perspective; self-efficacy; change in motivation; and more. Featuring illuminating, engaging readings, Exploring the Developing Child and Their Age is an ideal resource for courses in human development, child development, and psychology.
