The exosystem is interconnected with the macrosystem and the mesosystem. More importantly‚ friends‚ family‚ media‚ neighbors‚ agencies‚ and local services affect the exosystem.

Urie Bronfenbrenner developed a model called the “Ecological Systems Theory” that attempts to explain what factors influence a person’s behavior and which ones have the most impact. The model is broken down into five systems: the “Microsystem”‚ “Mesosystem”‚ “Exosystem”‚ “Macrosystem”‚ and “Chronosystem”. The “Microsystem” is considered the most intimate or most influential level and it consists of the interactions between the person and their family or their close friends. These influences are bidirectional

The mesosystem is the second structure within Bronfenbrenner’s social ecological model. Bowes & Hayes (1999) describe the mesosystem as the interrelationships between the indivuduals in the microsystem. There is direct collaboration between the individual and their relationships between their microsystem‚ their behaviors‚ expectations and values may differ with different experiences (Bowes‚ Grace & Hayes 2012). Regarding my life transition‚ the relationships between home and school within the

theory is broken down into a model of five different relationships of development. He suggests that the environment has an effect on the behavior and how it is expressed. The model that Bronfenbrenner breaks down five systems called the microystem‚ mesosystem‚ exosystem‚ macrosystem‚ and chronosytem. Microsystems is the setting in which the individual lives. These contexts include the person’s family‚ peers‚ school‚ and neighborhood. It is in the micro system that the most direct interactions

interactions of structures between layers is key to this theory. At the microsystem level‚ bi-directional influences are strongest and have the greatest impact on the child. However‚ interactions at outer levels can still impact the inner structures. The mesosystem – this layer provides the connection between the structures of the child’s microsystem (Berk‚ 2000). Examples: the connection between the child’s teacher and his parents‚ between his church and his neighborhood‚ etc. The exosystem – this layer

employment of the term “chronosystem” as an elaboration on the widely accepted mesosystem development model. He explains that while the mesosystem focuses on the primary context for development‚ which is within the family‚ the chronosystem also accounts for the effect of the environments in which people live‚ which are also an integral part of human development.
