Prepared by:ABIGAIL M. MADRIAGA, MAN, RN
Growth & Development
Growth- Increase in physical size or quantitative change
Development- Increase in skill or the ability to function - Qualitative change- maturation
Growth & DevelopmentPsychosexual Development- Type of development that refers to developing instincts or sensual pleasure- Freud
Psychosocial Development- Stages of personality development - Erickson
Moral Development- Ability to know right from wrong and to apply these to real life situations- Kohlberg
Cognitive Development- Refers to the ability to learn or understand from experience, to acquire and retain
knowledge, to respond to a new situation and to solve problems- Piaget
Principles of Growth and Development
a. Growth and development in an orderly sequenceb. Different children pass through the predictable stages at different ratesc. All body system do not develop at the same rate.d. Development is cephalocaudale. Development proceeds from proximal to distal body partsf. Growth and developement are continuous processes from conception to deathg. Development proceeds from gross to refined skillsh. There is an optimum time for initiation of experiences or learningi. Neonatal reflexs must be lost before development can proceedj. A great deal of skill and behavior is learned by practice
Factors Influencing Growth and Development
1. Genetics2. Gender3. Health4. Intelligence5. Temperament – usual reaction pattern of an individual or
an individual’s characteristic manner of thinking, behaving or reacting to stimuli in the environment
6. Environment7. Socioeconomic level8. Parent-child relationship9. Ordinal position in the family
Theories of Development
Theory- Systematic statement of principles that provides a
framework for explaining some phenomenon
Development Task- Skill or a growth responsibility arising of a particular time in an individual’s life the achievement of which will provide a foundation for the accomplishment of future tasks
Psychoanalytic Theory
- Sigmund Freud- Libido- sexual nature- Id- instinct- Ego – reality- Superego - society
Psychoanalytic TheoryPsychosexual Stage Nursing Implications
infant Oral stage - Child explores the world by using the mouth especially the tongue
-oral stimulation by giving pacifiers-do not discourage thumbsucking- Breastfeeding
toddler Anal Stage- Child learns to control urination and defecation
- Help child achieve bowel and bladder without due emphasis on it’s importance
preschooler Phallic stage- Child learns sexual identity through awareness of genital area
- Accept children’s sexual interest such as fondling their own genitals
- Answer questions about birth or sexual differences
School age Latent stage- child’s personality is inactive or dormant
- Help to have positive experiences with learning to continue with self esteem
adolescent Genital-help develop sexual maturity and learn to establish satisfactory relationship with opposite sex
- Provide opportunities to relate with opposite sex
- Allow to verbalize feelings about new relationship
Psychosocial Theory (Erickson)Developmental Task Nursing Implications
Infant Trust vs Mistrust-child learns to love and be loved
- -provide primary caregiver- Provide expriences that
add security- Provide visual stimulation
toddler Autonomy vs shame- Child learns to be independent

Psychosocial Theory (Erickson)Developmental Task Nursing Implications
Young adult Intimacy vs isolation-ability to relate well with other people to form long lasting friendship
- Need for strong sense of identity before they can reach out fully and offer friendship or love
Middle aged adult Generativity vs stagnation-people extend concern to the community and the world
- Sense of generativity – self confident
- Without sense of generativity – self absorbed
Older adult Integrity vs despair- Older adult with integrity feel good about life choices
- -despair – wish life could begin over again to turn out differently
Stages of Cognitive Development (Piaget)
Stages of Development Age Span Nursing implications
Sensorimotor
Neonatal reflex 1 mo -stimuli are assimilated into beginning mental images- Behavior is reflexive
Primary circular reaction 1-4 mo - Hand-mouth and ear-eye coordination develop
- Toy-rattle or tape of parent’s voice
Secondary circular reaction 4-8 mo - Infant learns to initiate, recognize and repeat pleasurable experiences from environment
- Memory traces (+)- Infant anticipates familiar
events- - toy – mirror- Game-peek a boo
Coordination of secondary reactions
8-12 mos - Recognizes shapes and sizes of familiar objects
- Search and retrieve toys that are out of sight
- Toy- nesting toys – colored boxes
Stages of Cognitive Development (Piaget)
Stages of Development Age Span Nursing implications
Sensorimotor
Tertiary circular reaction 12-18 mos - Capable of space perception, and time perception as well as permanence
- Toy-throw and retrieveInvention of new means through mental combinations
18-24 mo - Uses memory and imitation to act
- Can solve basic problems- Toy – blocks, colored plastic
rings ( several uses)Preoperational thought 2-7 yr - Thoughts- symbolic, mental
answers- Egocentric- Static thinking- Time-now, distance – as far
as they can see- Toy-modelling clay
Stages of Cognitive Development (Piaget)
Stages of Development Age Span Nursing implications
Concrete operational thought 7-12 yr - Systematic reasoning- Classify and use of serials- Undesrtand conservation- Activity- colecting and
classifyingFormal operational thought 12yr - solve hypothetical
problems with scientific reasoning
- Understand causality and can deal with past,present and future
- Activity- talk time to sort attitudes and opinions
Stages of Moral Development (Kohlberg)
Age (yr) Stage Description Nursing Implication
preconventional Level I
2-3 1 Punishment /obedience orientation- Heteronymous
morality- Child does right
because parents tells them to and to avoid punishment
- Child needs to determine what are right actions, give clear instructions
4-7 2 - Individualism: instrumental purpose and exchange
- Carries out actions to satisfy own needs rather than society’s will
- Does something for another if tha person does something for the child
Child is unable to recognize that like situations require like actionsUnable to take responsibility for self care because meeting own needs interferes with this

behavior
10-12 4 Maintenance of social order, fixed rules and authority- Follows rules of authority figures as well as parents in an effort to keep the “system” working

Older than 12 5 Social contract-follows standards of society for the good of all people
- Adolescents responsible for self care because it is standards behavior of adult
6 Universal ethical principle orientation
