Self-Definition and Relatedness/Self-Regulation in Development

Development and Causality

  • 1876 Accesses

Abstract

This chapter examines several major aspects of the development of the self, ­including self-regulation and a model that I developed on the self-definitional and relatedness selves (after Blatt, 2008). I describe models of self-regulation from both more recent, specific perspectives (e.g., are they functional, componential?) and more general perspectives (e.g., Piaget, learning theory). In addition, I examine the role of positive and negative learning in self-development.
