Child Development In Psychology
[ send me this essay ]
10 pages in length. The psychological twists and turns that children face in their maturation years can be both thrilling and traumatic at the same time. In her book entitled "The Magic Years : Understanding and Handling the Problems of Early Childhood," Selma Fraiberg's approach to first recognizing and then addressing these stressful yet magical years is quite refreshing from a reader's perspective. The forty years that have worn wear upon this title do not negatively reflect upon current psychological issues that exist in child development; rather, they have helped to preserve Fraiberg's unique, entertaining and informational book much like a fine wine. The writer discusses childhood development in psychology with emphasis upon self-esteem. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Child Development Theories
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper discussing the grand and notable dichotomy in much of the psychological research surrounding child development. It would seem that many psychological researchers would fully discount any correlation between practical experience and empirical research. Increasingly, early theorists such as Rotter, Piaget, Montessori and Winnicott are being supported by the same empirical method that earlier condemned many of their theories as being invalid. The use of child development theories requires application of common sense as much as it does the empirical method, as this paper argues. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
