1. Human Development ANS >>> study of how people change and how they
remain the same over time
(why people are both unique and different from eachother)
2. 3 characteristics of HD ANS >>> Nature vs
Nurture Continuity vs Discontinuity
https://www.stuvia.com/user/techgrades
, Universal vs Context-Specific Development
- a person's development is a blend of all 3 traits
3. Nature vs Nurture ANS >>> development is shaped by both and both are
mutually inter- active influences
[Nature is genetic, Nurture is environmental]
-degree to which genetic/hereditary influences or environmental influences deter-
mine the kind of person you are
4. Continuity vs Discontinuity ANS >>> concerns whether a particular
developmental phe- nomenon represents a smooth progression throughout the life
span (continuity) or a series of abrupt shifts (discontinuity)
5. Universal vs Context-Specific development ANS >>> concerns whether
there's one path of development or several
-Individual development reflects both influences
6. Basic Forces in HD ANS >>> The Biopsychosocial Framework ANS >>> 1)
https://www.stuvia.com/user/techgrades
, Biological
2) Psychological
3) Sociocultural
4) life cycle
(all three create the 4th)
all forces work together to create human development
7. Biological (genetics/health) ANS >>> all genetic and health related factors
that affect development
- can be viewed as providing the raw material necessary and setting the boundary
for development
(Ex ANS >>> prenatal development, brain maturation, puberty, gender, disability)
