A Case Study
It is an analysis of a case study of a child in adverse circumstances and involves a description of the child’s possible emotional development as interpreted from evidence given in the source. Students are obliged to take a practitioner’s standpoint with a particular emphasis on the child’s emotional development and feelings. The form of this analysis will be discussed in full on the Discussion Board prior to the submission date.
Sources for the Case Study.
There will be 2 sources provided both are real cases with real evidence. Each student in the subject will select one case. Students will do the assignment individually.
The task is to focus on the child in the report provided and use the knowledge from child development and emotional development of children in adversity to provide a view of the child that shows respect for the individual’s situation. You will explain how the child or young person’s emotional life and understanding of his/herself was established, try to identify what the young person felt, and the reasons behind their current disposition up to early childhood only. You are required to infer from the evidence, the details of the child or young person’s emotional development. [Do not go beyond early childhood].
You should for example explain why, at a given age, s/he appeared so difficult a child, and what you think should be done to help her/him. The essential point is that you must infer from evidence given.
In more detail this is how you should proceed.
First, you should consider the nature of the child’s prenatal situation, birth and infancy. What positive and what negative developments took place and why? Can we infer anything as occurring at this stage concerning her/his later behaviour?
You should consider her/his dependency needs as an infant. Where her/his instrumental needs met?
What about her/his temperament? How does her/his possible temperament relate to her/his early behaviour and is it reflected in her/his later behaviour? How does temperament relate to goodness of fit in this case?
What about her/his emotional dependency? This brings us to the type of attachment or attachments that s/he might have formed. What does the evidence suggest? What type of attachment does her/his current behaviour suggest? Who was available for attachment purposes?
then, you should consider her/his possible position as a toddler (i.e. in Toddlerhood). You should infer developments in the area of secondary social emotions and theory of mind .
Next, consider her/him as a child at pre-school (Early Childhood). How would you describe her/him at this stage? What did s/he learn at pre-school? Did s/he learn display rules?
It might be in one of these cases, that the child’s cognitive development was not hindered but how can that be? Is it a matter solely of inheritance? What went right and what went wrong? It might also be that in one of these cases, the child’s cognitive development was hindered, how? Has there been any remediation and again, what went right?
Why did s/he not become very anxious or hyperactive and aggressive or neither? Why did s/he act out her/his feelings or why not?
Go on to primary school (Middle Childhood) and infer her/his emotional relations both at home and at school.
Now you should summarise the young person’s emotional history and infer future risk of harm and, say why you think that? Are there any hopeful elements in his current position? Is s/he essentially a normal child who has suffered misfortune, or one whose nurturance has been inconsistent, or one who has hardly had any nurturance at all?
Is there any evidence in this case for trans- generational effects? Research trans- generational effects. Now write a short paragraph on trans- generational effects.
On the basis of what you have inferred and described you should now suggest a future for the person who is the focus of your study?
What does s/he need from now on? Can s/he be left as s/he is at present?
Your answer should be an account of emotional development that uses as headings all the phrases bolded above and listed below. It should in some way answer all of the subsidiary questions posed in the above paragraphs. It should be no more than 3000 words in length. It should not be in essay form.
This case report must be written under the following compulsory headings (though you can use them in any order that makes sense to you).
1. Emotional development during infancy. This section should make reference to his/her prenatal experience, perinatal experience, birth and infancy.
2. Dependency needs as an infant.
3. Attachment in infancy and toddlerhood.
4. Temperament.
5. Child’s emotional development as a toddler.
6. Emotional development at pre-school
7. Trans-generational effects and their relevance
8. Summary of emotional history
9. Possible future developments
You must use these headings in your assignment but you may use them in a different order to that given here.
Discussion of all the cases will take place each week on the Discussion Board. I won’t answer the questions for you but I will direct you to the relevant reading or theorist.
All the best with the assignment. It was designed to generate interest and broaden our understanding of adversity.
