First, introduce yourself to the class. Include your major and anything you would like to share about yourself. Then address the prompt below.
In your readings for this week, you have reviewed several theoretical and biological perspectives on the impact of early environment on adolescent functioning and health. Several important examples of such environmental influences have been discussed in recent research; chief among them are poverty and socioeconomic deprivation. In this discussion, you will consider readings on heredity-environment interaction and cognitive developmental theories. In your post, use the readings and additional scholarly research to answer the following questions:
- How do early poverty and socioeconomic deprivation affect adolescent development from a behavioral genetics perspective?
- What might cognitive and learning theories predict to be the impact of early poverty and socioeconomic deprivation on adolescent development?
- Does recent research support these perspectives? That is, are the influences identified as part of behavioral genetics and cognitive theories observed in real-world teens? In what ways?
In responding to your peers, offer feedback on two peers’ ideas about how environment affects adolescent development.
To complete this assignment, review the Discussion Rubric.
