Developmentalism
Principles:
• physiological development drives psycho-social development
• time is a major determinant of personality development
• “stages of development” exist; stages cannot be skipped, missed, or avoided
Developmental Tasks of Infancy
• Motor Skills
• Emotive Skills
• Cognitive Skills
• Social Skills
• Integrative skills
I. Stages of Motor Development
1 month Lifts head while lying on stomach
2 months Lifts chest while lying on stomach
3 months Rolls over
4 months Sits up with support
6-7 months Sits up alone
8 months Crawls, stands up with help
11 months Stands alone
12 months Walks alone
17 months Walks up steps
II. Stages of Emotional Development
• Attachment related to genetically based behaviours (crying, sucking, smiling, clinging and following)
• Attachment is active and reciprocal
• Separation anxiety caused by absence of the attachment figure
Attachment
• Parents who respond to cries promptly
• Appropriate responsiveness of parent more important than time of physical closeness
• Categorization of infants:
Secure Insecure
Ambivalent-resistant Avoidant
III. Stages of Cognitive Development
• Piaget
• Sensorimotor
• Pre-operational
• Concrete operational
• Formal Operational
Sensorimotor Stage
• 0-2 years of age
• Use of senses and motor abilities to understand and respond to the world
• Object permanence
• Cause-effect reasoning
• The development of memory
Pre-operational Stage
• 2-6 years of age
• Ability to hold mental representations
• Pretending, play are possible
• Ego-centric world-view (“I” vs “you”)
• Ability to think symbolically
• “The Explosion of Words”
• Consequential thinking
Concrete Operations
• 7-11 years of age
• Progressive ego-decentering
• Ability to classify, categorize, draw generalizations, stereotype
• Ability to consequentialize and seriate (put things in order)
• Able to use inductive and deductive logic
Formal Operations
• 12+ years of age
• Able to form and test mental hypothesis
• Able to deal with abstractions
• Able to understand (though not deal with) ambiguity
IV. Stages of Social Development
• Belenky’s “Women’s Way of Knowing”
• Culture Shock Model
• Perry’s Development of College-Aged Students
Erikson’s Stages of Human Development
Stage Age Crisis
1 0-1 Trust vs.Mistrust
2 1-2 Autonomy vs.Doubt
3 2-6 Initiative vs.Guilt
4 6-12 Industry vs.Inferiority
Erikson’s Stages of Human Development
Age Stage Crisis
5 13-20 Identity vs.Role Confusion
6 20-35 Intimacy vs.Isolation
7 35-55 Generativity vs.Stagnation
8 55+ Integrity vs.Despair
Stage 1: Infancy (0-1)
• Crisis: Trust vs. Mistrust
• Description: In early life, infants must rely entirely upon adults to meet basic physiological needs
• Positive Outcome: If needs are met consistently and responsively, secure attachment will form
Stage 2: Toddler (1-2)
• Crisis: Autonomy vs. Doubt
Independence vs. Shame
• Description: Toddlers learn to walk, talk, use toilets, etc. which represents self-control
• Positive Outcome: Confidence to cope with situations that require initiative, choices, control and independence
Stage 3: Early Childhood (2-6)
• Crisis: Initiative vs. Guilt
• Description: Children discover their own power, and must learn to control impulses and childish fantasies
• Positive Outcome: Children learn, with consistent discipline to accept without shame that certain things are not allowed
Stage 4: School Years (6-12)
• Crisis: Industry/Competence vs. Inferiority
• Description: Transition from world of home to world of peers and others
• Positive Outcome: Pleasure in intellectual stimulation, being productive and succeeding in competition
Stage 5: Adolescence (13-20)
• Crisis: Identify vs. Role Confusion
• Description: With the onset of puberty, children struggle to determine their owh characters, independent of family
• Positive Outcomes: Grounded acceptance and sense of self, and one’s own strengths and limitations
Stage 6: Early Adulthood (20-35)
• Crisis: Intimacy vs. Isolation
• Description: Adults learn to share feelings with others and develop intense, mutual inter-dependent relationships with others
• Positive Outcomes: The ability to relate and share emotions and thoughts with others and to learn and grow from this
Stage 7: Middle Adulthood (35-55)
• Crisis: Generativity vs. Stagnation
• Description: At the peak of their working lives, adults need to contribute meaningfully to society
• Positive Outcomes: Artefacts, creativity, insight, accomplishment, success
Stage 8: Late Adulthood (55+)
• Crisis: Integrity vs. Despair
• Description: Towards the end of life, adults must come to terms with their lives and accept all their dreams did not come true
• Positive Outcome: Death with dignity
Developmental Explanation for Emotional Responses
Rage: (anger due to frustrated desire)
Guilt: (self-recrimination due to lack of control)
Self-conciousness:
(fear of negative evaluation by others)
Embarrassment:
(experiencing negative evaluation by others)
Shame: (enduring state of embarrassment)
Social Anxiety: (avoidant/withdrawal behaviours)
Behaviours that emerge as a result of emotional responses
• Denial (distorting reality)
• Downward social comparison
• Self-handicapping
• Self-focus/narcissism
• Rule-boundedness
• Borderline
Summary of Developmental Perspective
• Stages of development cannot be skipped
• Personality formation is based on successful, age-appropriate negotiation of fundamental crises
• Is there a fixed time in which personality or traits may be formed?
Application to Pharmacy Practice
• People cannot understand issues which are developmentally beyond them
• Need to meet patient at his/her developmental level, not yours
• Observed behaviour is not the end-point; reason for emergence of behaviour is important
