Upton I 5 Individuals/Developmental psychology/Upton: Question: To which extend is the development driven by external factors or by something inside each individual (>Environment/Developmenal psychology). Tradition: Traditional views of development see the individual as passive in their development. Empiricists see the child as a passive recipient of stimuli, while nativists see the child as passively following a biological programme. VsEmpiricism: Most contemporary theories of development recognise an active role for children in their own development. This thinking has its roots in the philosophy of Immanuel Kant, who argued for a synthesis of nativism and empiricism. >Psychological Development/Kant._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
