Perspective MODULE 2: UNDERSTANDING THE SELF Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological System Theory
American psychologist - Urie
Bronfenbrenner (1917-2005) formulated the Ecological Systems Theory His theory focuses on the quality and context of the child's environment

The model suggests the interactions between the individual and their environment, categorized into various systems, shape their development over time. organizes contexts of development into five levels of external influence. levels are categorized from the most intimate level to the broadest Integrity.

Interactions within the microsystem typically involve personal relationships with family members, classmates, teachers and caregivers. How these groups or individuals interact with the children will affect how they grow.

Exosystem example: Father at his job, death of a family friend The exosystem pertains to the linkages that may exist between two or more settings, one of which may not contain the developing children but affect them indirectly, nonetheless. Integrity. Excellence. Passion. Service. Exosystem •Based on the findings of Bronfenbrenner, people and places that children may not directly interact with may still have an impact on their lives. •Such places and people may include the parents’ workplaces, extended family members, and the neighborhood the children live in

Exosystem… • So for parents, maybe it’s the relationship between the parent’s job and the kid’s school. • If the parents have really fluctuating work hours, or must work very long hours, the child is not directly involved in the parent’s workplace, but this will affect things like whether the parents are able to volunteer in the kid’s school. • The Tarlac State University Board of Regents would be an example of an exosystem for you, because you have probably (most of you) never met the trustees, but they do affect your immediate environment because they affect things like your tuition and fees, who we’re going to hire, College policies, and things like that.

Macrosystem example: customs, beliefs, religion differs, law free tuition
•The macrosystem is the largest and
most distant collection of people and places to the children that still have significant influences on them. •This ecological system is composed of the children’s cultural patterns and values, specifically their dominant beliefs and ideas, as well as political and economic systems.

Macrosystem • So this can be Filipino culture, but of course that’s not one monolithic culture. • So we can also talk about the culture of a religious group, or military culture, or the culture of very urban vs. rural areas. • We can also look at broad social contexts, such as the country’s political climate.

Chronosystem example: birth of a sibling, relocation • The chronosystem is made up of the environmental events and transitions that occur throughout a child's life, • including any sociohistorical events such as change in family structure, address, parents’ employment status, as well as immense society changes such as economic cycles and wars. Integrity. Excellence. Passion. Service. Chronosystem • For example, a child who frequently bullies smaller children at school may portray the role of a terrified victim at home. • Due to these variations, adults who are concerned with the care of a particular child should pay close attention to his/her behavior in different settings, as well as to the quality and type of connections that exist between these settings. Integrity. Excellence. Passion. Service. Chronosystem • Part of this relates to when events occur in a person’s life. • For example, we can talk about how people are typically affected by becoming parents, but the effects are very different if someone becomes a parent for the first time at age 16 or 26 or 36. • The other element of the chronosystem is the larger historical context. • So, for example, somebody who is in their 40s today might This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-NC-ND have different views about money, and different spending habits, compared to what today’s 20-year-olds will do when
