<strong>Social</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Emotional</strong> <strong>factors</strong><br />

<strong>that</strong> <strong>can</strong> <strong>affect</strong> <strong>development</strong><br />

There are 7. Could you name<br />

any?


Gender<br />

Gender is about how society expects<br />

people of each sex to behave. E.g.?<br />

So how does gender <strong>affect</strong><br />

<strong>development</strong>? Think jobs…


Family relationships<br />

Primary socialisation is the first place<br />

where an individual is socialised.<br />

There are different types of families<br />

Nuclear, single parent, step families<br />

<strong>Social</strong> Class- depending on what jobs<br />

our parents do will often determine<br />

what jobs we do when we grow up.


Friendships- positive effects on our<br />

<strong>development</strong><br />

Sharing secrets<br />

Listening to problems<br />

Talking together<br />

Give support<br />

Being trustworthy<br />

Being reliable<br />

Getting our jokes<br />

When could friendships be negative?


Educational Experiences<br />

Both genetic inheritance <strong>and</strong> where<br />

we live <strong>can</strong> <strong>affect</strong> how good our<br />

schooling is.<br />

How our parents view the importance<br />

of school will <strong>affect</strong> how well we do at<br />

school<br />

If you go to University you get paid<br />

more than if you leave school at 16


Employment/unemployment<br />

Employment is more than just having<br />

enough money to live on, it also is<br />

part of how we see ourselves.<br />

Becoming unemployed <strong>can</strong> lower our<br />

self esteem <strong>and</strong> how other people see<br />

us. This will stop us developing how?


Ethnicity <strong>and</strong> Religion- how do<br />

these <strong>affect</strong> our <strong>development</strong><br />

Ethnicity is part of someone’s culture.<br />

Their culture may dictate how they<br />

develop- e.g. what jobs they do.<br />

Often people of different ethnic<br />

backgrounds are discriminated<br />

against. This is against the law, but<br />

still happens.<br />

This indirect discrimination stops<br />

them reaching their potential. E.g.


How do life experiences <strong>affect</strong> our<br />

<strong>development</strong>?<br />

Getting married<br />

Having children<br />

Losing your parents<br />

Losing a child<br />

Getting divorced<br />

All these will <strong>affect</strong> how you develop<strong>can</strong><br />

you give examples from 2 life<br />

experiences?
