Principles of Human Development

This document discusses the key principles of human development: 1. Development is relatively orderly, occurring in predictable sequences from conception through the lifespan, though the rate and outcomes may vary between individuals. 2. Development takes place gradually over time, through slow changes occurring over weeks, months or years, rather than sudden transformations. 3. Development is a multidimensional process influenced by biological, cognitive, and socio-emotional factors that interact in complex ways. 4. Human development begins at conception and continues throughout the entire lifespan. It includes physical, intellectual, and social-emotional growth and changes.

CONCEPTION

Human development begins with the


union of egg cell and sperm cell.
Human development will
continue all throughout
the life span of an
individual.
HUMAN

Development includes growth and
decline. This means that development
can be negative or positive.

While the pattern of development is

likely to be similar, the outcomes of
developmental processes and the rate
of development are likely to vary
among individuals.
If you grow up in a family environment
where children are treated differently by
their parents or any other person who will
guide them, it will influence their actions.
If children come from good
home with loving and caring
parents, they may develop
into warm and responsible
children, adolescents and
adults.
Do you consider yourself a healthy,
bouncing baby boy or girl?
If they come from deprived
environment, they may
develop into carefree and
irresponsible adolescents
and adults.
What do you think their parents doing to
their children?
When a child grows up with an abusive parent,
there will be a tendency for them to grow up to
be abusive as well.

"abused children become


abusive parents."
