Operant conditioning is on the other hand often associated with short or long-term rewards or sanctions and behavior is modified to gain reward or avoid punishment. (Catania, 1995, p
Moral development theorists, such as Gilligan and Damon attest tot the idea that moral guidance is essential to human development as it demonstrates the thread of commonality which is inclusive of social, emotional and cultural growth. (Damon, 1989) (Gilligan, 1982) (Gilligan and Wiggins, 1988) "Morality is a fundamental, natural, and important part of children's lives from the time of their first relationships
This debate goes back far into the annals of psychology and to some degree predates the field itself and can be found in philosophy. (Lerner, 1997, p. 42) (Eliot, 1999, pp
Nonetheless Erikson is also thought of as one of the first child psychologists and his stages are weighed more heavily toward the ages of childhood as he acknowledged that the younger one is the more developmental stages he or she must go through to achieve healthy development. (Erikson, 1975, p
, Gottlieb 1970, 1983; Kuo 1967; Lehrman 1953; Schneirla 1957) take a probabilistic-epigenetic approach. Some researchers interested in verbal development stress the primacy of maturation (Gesell and Thompson 1941), while others viewing the same sort of behaviors offer interpretations that stress learning (Gagne 1968)

If these challenges are not met, Freud contends that the individual will likely feel a sense of aggression toward the gender which they had the most problem with. (Guntrip, 1971, p
5) (Shonkoff & Phillips, 2000) Others also stress the importance of how brain development effects emotions and thusly the development of behaviors based on these emotions. (LeDoux, 1996) the more science can see the more fascinated science seems to be with the overall connection between the mind and the body as well as human development and strategies for ensuring healthy human development through a greater understanding of the developmental stages of the human mind

Any development past the last stage, according the Freud was simply an internal return to whatever stage the individual did not complete as a child. (Mitchell & Black, 1995, p
Though Montessori was also a believer in the discrete stages of many stage theories her emphasis was on developing systems of child rearing and education that were specific to the developing mind and body of the child at the earliest ages possible. (Montessori, 1967, p
The descriptive material is organized under motor characteristics, personal hygiene, emotional expression, fears and dreams, self and sex, interpersonal relations, play and pastime, school life, ethical sense, and philosophic outlook. (Olson, 1949, p
Additionally, Piaget demonstrated one of the first scientific movements in the filed, with the utilization of direct observation as the best tool for understanding. (Piaget, 1962, p
Though Bandura's work develops over a large spectrum of research and theory one of the most significant stresses of the researcher was that parenting behaviors serve as a model for child behavior and that punishment and aggression serve as a standard for the child to model through similar aggression. (Rubin & Burgess, 2002, p
His contribution was the notion of crisis as a normal developmental phenomenon and that intervention which leads to a balanced resolution at the time of a crisis would prevent later problems in emotional development and maturation. (Sandoval, 2002, p
(Eliot, 1999, p. 5) (Shonkoff & Phillips, 2000) Others also stress the importance of how brain development effects emotions and thusly the development of behaviors based on these emotions
(Piaget, 1962) Stage theories have also been applied to physical as well as psychological development and physical development is often a basis of judgment regarding overall development, as it has been postulated and correlated frequently that those who develop abnormally or slowly physically often also have developmental delays in other areas. (Ulijasjek, Johnson, Preece, 1998, p
If these challenges are not met, Freud contends that the individual will likely feel a sense of aggression toward the gender which they had the most problem with. (Guntrip, 1971, p. 40) (Zillmann, 1979, p
Like Vygotsky, Piaget was concerned with cognitive development as well as general child development. Piaget believed that the development of knowledge is a "spontaneous process" that is inherently linked to human biology (Piaget, 1961, p
