1. CHAPTER 3
Perspective and Approaches in
the Study of Human
Development
ILO: Associate human perspectives and
approaches with specific learning principles.
2. Perspectives in Human Development
Learning Paradigm
a. Classical Conditioning
b. Operant Conditioning
c. Social Cognitive Learning Theory
Socio-Cultural Theories
a. Socio-Cultural Theory of Lev Vygotsky
b. The Cognitive Theory of Development of Jean Piaget
Ethology- Evolutionary Socio-Biological
a. Ethological Perspective of Konrad Lorenz
b. Attachment Theories
System Approach
a. The Contextualism Theory of Richard Lerner
b. The Ecological System Theory of Urie Bronfenbrenner
3. Learning Paradigm
Work on the assumption that people undergo the
stages of development through the process of
interaction with one’s environment via,
observation, conditioning, reward and punishment
system.
The major premise of the learning theories
generally revolves around the understanding of
the relationship of stimulus and response
4. Classical Conditioning
Pavlov
a learning process that occurs when two stimuli are
repeatedly paired: a response that is at first elicited by the
second stimulus is eventually elicited by the first stimulus
alone.

7. Operant Conditioning
B.F. Skinner
Operant conditioning, sometimes referred to as
instrumental conditioning, is a method of learning that
uses rewards and punishment to modify behavior.
Through operant conditioning, behavior that is
rewarded is likely to be repeated, and behavior that is
punished will rarely occur.

10. Social Cognitive
Learning Theory
Bandura
Social cognitive theory, used in psychology, education,
and communication, holds that portions of an
individual's knowledge acquisition can be directly
related to observing others within the context of social
interactions, experiences, and outside media influences.
11.
12. Socio-Cultural Theories
Highlights the influence of the collective
experience of people found in the same cultural
orientation.
It assumes the centrality of culture, such as
language and communication as well as social
norms in the developmental process.
13. Socio-Cultural Theory
Lev Vygotsky
What is Sociocultural Theory? The sociocultural theory stresses
the role that social interaction plays in psychological
development. It suggests that human learning is largely a social
process and that our cognitive functions are formed based on
our interactions with those around us who are "more skilled."

16. The Cognitive Theory
of Development
Jean Piaget
The cognitive development theory is based on the
development of human intelligence. The central
concept of the theory is that children actively
construct their own cognition or knowledge as a result
of their independent explorations.
17.
18. Ethology- Evolutionary and
Socio-biological
Accounts genetic and adaptation to one’s changing
environment
Due to the process of maturation, inherited
characteristics unfold according to one’s readiness.
Changes brought about by development is a result of
one’s need to adapt therefore they serve survival
function.
21. Attachment Theories
John Bowlby, Mary Ainsworth &
Melanie Klein
attachment theory, in developmental psychology, is
the theory that humans are born with a need to form a
close emotional bond with a caregiver and that such a
bond will develop during the first six months of a
child's life if the caregiver is appropriately responsive.
22.
23. System Approach
Integrated (genes, culture, and learning) view
about human development.
Human person is a product of interaction between
nature and nurture.
25. Developmental contextualism
is a theory of human
development that focuses on
the changing relations
between the developing
individual and his or her
context.
26. The Ecological System
Theory
Urie Bronfenbrenner
Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory is one of
the most accepted explanations regarding the
influence of social environments on human
development. This theory argues that the environment
you grow up in effects every facet of your life.
