Approaches of development psichology
Many theoretical perspectives attempt to explain development; among the
most prominent are: Jean Piaget's Stage Theory, Lev Vygotsky's Social constructivism (and its heirs, the Cultural Theory of Development of
Michael Cole, and the Ecological Systems Theory of Urie Bronfenbrenner), Albert Bandura's Social learning theory, and the information processing framework employed by cognitive
psychology.
To a lesser extent, historical theories continue to provide a basis for
additional research. Among them are Erik Erikson's eight stages of psychosocial development and John B. Watson's and B.F. Skinner's behaviorism. (For more
on behaviorism's role, see Behavior analysis of child development).
Many other theories are prominent for their contributions to particular
aspects of development. For example, attachment theory describes
kinds of interpersonal relationships and Lawrence Kohlberg describes stages in moral reasoning.
