Urie Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Theory proposes that human development is best explained in terms of interaction between individuals and the environments in which they live or have lived (Witt and Mossler‚ 2010‚Adult Development and Life Assessment‚ Section 2.9‚ para 1 ). Bronfenbrenner’s theory consists of microsystem‚ mesosystem‚ exosystem‚ macrosystem and chronosystem. The Ecological Theory has been criticized for not recognizing biology enough. I have to agree

Bronfenbrenner‚ there are 5 main systems that influence human development: the microsystem‚ mesosystem‚ exosystem‚ macrosystem and chronosystem. One system that influences the person directly is the microsystem. According to Arnett (2011)‚ “The microsystem is Bronfenbrenner’s term for the immediate environment‚ the settings where people experience their daily lives ” (p.23). The microsystem includes: family‚ school‚ peers‚ neighborhood‚ church group and health services. My family has one of the largest impacts

and evaluate Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological System Theory in relation to human development In the early 1970s’ Urie Bronfenbrenner developed an ecological theory of human development. Bronfenbrenner’s book‚ “The Ecology of Human Development: Experiments by Nature and Design” (Bronfenbrenner‚ 1997) discusses in depth the ecological systems levels as the micro-meso-exo-macro- and the fifth system‚ the chrono-system layer. Bronfenbrenner summarized his theory utilizing concentric spheres in where the

The purpose of this paper is to think of a particular time in my childhood and apply Bronfenbrenner’s five systems to that particular time. Urie Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory in child development suggest that five levels of the environment simultaneously influences us as children. Bronfenbrenner believes that we cannot fully understand the phenomenon of continuity and bio-psychological characteristics of a child without considering how we are influence by each level of our environment. The 5

asked‚ it should not be surprising that many in the field believe that both genetics and environment shape a person’s attitude and behavior (Crandell‚ Crandell‚ & Vander Zanden‚ 2009). The theory that best supports this learner’s view point is Urie Bronfenbrenner’s “Ecological Theory.” Ecological Theory examines the relationship between the developing individual and the changing environment in which they live (APA). Bronfenbrenner states that “the study of developmental influences must include
