The BRIEF is a questionnaire completed by Mrs. Lagace (Parent form) and Mrs. Hippchen (Teacher form). It is designed to provide a better understanding of a child’s self-control and problem-solving skills by measuring eight aspects of executive functioning. Executive functions are mental processes that direct a child’s thought, action, and emotion, particularly during active problem-solving. Specific skills include a) selecting appropriate goals for a particular task, b) planning and organizing an approach to problem solve, c) initiating a plan, d) inhibiting or blocking out distractions, e) holding a goal and plan in mind, f) flexibly trying a new approach when necessary, and g) checking to see that the goal is achieved. The following table lists Alina’s scores. Scores are reported in T-Scores that have a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. T-Scores at or above 65 should be considered as having potential clinical

Anna’s adaptive and problem behaviors were measured by both the Behavioral Symptoms Index (BSI) from the Parent Rating Scale and the Emotional Symptoms Index (ESI) from the Self-Report, which are global indicators of serious emotional problems for their respective scales. Anna scored in the average range on both the BSI (BSI: T-Score=44) and ESI (ESI: T Score=44) as Anna’s adaptive and problem behaviors are typical in comparison to her peers. This information was further supplemented
The BASC-2 enables the assessment of a student’s global social, emotional, and adaptive functioning as well as their functioning within narrower domains. Three aspects of the BASC-2 were used in this assessment: the BASC-2 Self-Report of Personality – Child (BASC-2 SRP-C), BASC-2 Parent Rating Scales – Child (BASC-2 PRS-C), and the BASC-2 Teacher Rating Scales – Child (BASC-2 TRS-C).

In the case study, I would like to use several theories and concepts to analysis the case of Susan. I would briefly analysis the case by using social ecological theory and analysis in detail by using the relevant theories. According to the social ecological theory, the child development is supported by five subsystems, including the microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem and chronosystem (Bronfenbrenner, 1979). Microsystem is related to the child has direct interaction with, including classmates and parents.
In the contemporary times, great importance is given to the significance of early years of a child’s life. It is widely acknowledged now-a-days that the early childhood years are a predominantly receptive phase in the developmental process. This stage is responsible to lay a foundation in early days and later years for cognitive functioning, learning process, physical wellbeing, and self-regulatory capacities in both personal and social lives. In simple words, “the period from birth to age 5 is one of opportunity and vulnerability for healthy physical, emotional, social, and cognitive development” (Karoly, Kilburn & Cannon, 2005). However, it is also a fact that many children go through several stressors during their developmental years due to which their healthy development may be impaired.
Helping behavior is exhibited and commonly shown in people; however, certain circumstances affects whether the person in need is helped by the passerby. Past researches looked at possible element which may have influence whether a person choose to help another one. On this note, several literatures look at physical attractiveness as a crucial factor that may critically impact helping behavior. Thus, it is important to address the relationship between these variables, by examining researches with the focus on the link between attractiveness and helping behavior. It can be hypothesized that individuals are more likely to help other people if the person in need is attractive; hence, the present research explicitly reviewed two articles which
Introduction- My case study is about Personal Social and Emotional Development (PSED) and the importance of it in the lives of children and the key role it plays as part of their growth and development. The child I am observing is a 3 years 8 months old girl called Emily. She lives at home with both of her parents and an older brother who is 10. Her father is Irish and works fulltime 5 days a week and her Mother is Spanish and works at the weekends.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this case study is to determine if a 17 year old female, Emily, is appropriately developing physically, socially, and cognitively based on examined factors. Some factors that will be considered is the child's family situation, sociality, future plans, growth experiences, hobbies, and personality factors. The qualitative information provided will be used to determine if the child has adapted to the appropriate developmental stage of her age group. The analysis will also determine how each factor has impacted the development of the child.
