Problems of Middle Childhood

Course details

Every child’s development is unique and therefore fundamentally different from every other. What’s more, every child will inevitably encounter certain developmental issues and obstacles along the way. It’s how these problems are identified, approached and ultimately resolved that makes all the difference. The more severe or potentially influential the problem, the greater the importance of pinpointing and addressing it as early as possible. Child psychologists, therefore, must be familiar with as many common and rare childhood developmental issues as possible. Not to mention, the capacity to take on the most challenging cases and an unwillingness to accept defeat at any time.
Explore the fascinating world of childhood psychology and associated developmental issues with this exclusive tutorial. Study a wide variety of common issues child psychologists encounter, including the symptoms of conduct disorder, destruction of property, development of fear and anxiety, the causes of childhood anxiety and more. Learn about social information-processing therapy, family-based communication and problem-solving training, cognitive and behavioural treatment, home-school liaison meetings and more.
