Early Scientific Study of Development • Hall, Gesell Normative • Measured large numbers of people Approach • Age-related averages • Binet & Simon Mental Testing • Intelligence tests Movement Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2007
Freud’s Three Parts of the Personality Id Ego Superego Copyright © Allyn & Bacon 2007 • Largest portion of the mind • Unconscious, present at birth • Source of biological needs & desires • Conscious, rational part of mind • Emerges in early infancy • Redirects id impulses acceptably • The conscience • Develops from ages 3 to 6 from interactions with caregivers
