Social Development

As Berk (2013) states, “Self-development begins with the dawning of self-awareness in infancy and gradually evolves into a rich, multifaceted, organized view of the self’s characteristics and capacities during childhood and adolescence” (pg. 448). Therefore it is important to have a comprehensive view of social development as it pertains to your work with children.

So, for this discussion you will:

  1. Choose two periods of development (infancy, early childhood, middle childhood or adolescence).
  2. For each period share two typical Social/Emotional Milestones.
  3. After viewing the Social Attributes Checklist, provide tips for how to help a child who is struggling in at least two areas from the “Social Skills Attributes” category.
  4. List at least one cognitive, one social and one cultural influence on self-concept for each of your chosen age groups.
  5. Lastly include a statement explaining the impact self-concept can have on development in each of your chosen age groups.

The Social Attributes Checklist by Diane McClellan & Lilian G. Katz Individual Attributes The child: 1. Is usually in a positive mood. 2. Is not excessively dependent on the teacher, assistant or other adults 3. Usually comes to the program or setting willingly 4. Usually copes with rebuffs and reverses adequately 5. Shows the capacity to empathize 6. Has positive relationship with one or two peers; shows capacity to really care about them, miss them if absent, etc. 7. Displays the capacity for humor 8. Does not seem to be acutely or chronically lonely Social Skill Attributes The child usually: 1. Approaches others positively 2. Expresses wishes and preferences clearly; gives reasons for actions and positions 3. Asserts own rights and needs appropriately 4. Is not easily intimidated by bullies 5. Expresses frustrations and anger effectively and without harming others or property 6. Gains access to ongoing groups at play and work 7. Enters ongoing discussion on the subject; makes relevant contributions to ongoing activities 8. Takes turns fairly easily 9. Shows interest in others; exchanges information with and requests information from others appropriately 10. Negotiates and compromises with others appropriately 11. Does not draw inappropriate attention to self 12. Accepts and enjoys peers and adults of ethnic groups other than his or her own 13. Gains access to ongoing groups at play and work 14. Interacts non-verbally with other children with smiles, waves, nods, etc. Peer Relationship Attributes The child is: 1. Usually accepted versus neglected or rejected by other children 2. Sometimes invited by other children to join them in play, friendship, and work The single best childhood predictor of adult adaptation is not IQ, not school grades, and not classroom behavior but, rather the adequacy with which the child gets along with other children. Children who are generally disliked, who are aggressive and disruptive, who are unable to sustain close relationships with other children, and who cannot establish a place for themselves in the peer culture are seriously "at risk".
