WESTERN DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY IN NON-WESTERN CULTURES
For the most part, the theories you explored in this course focused on Western cultures. Western cultures often are the baseline when conducting cross-cultural comparisons. Miao and Wang’s (2003) article examining Chinese developmental psychology provides insight into how another culture examines human development. While major developmental theorists and researchers (e.g., Gesell) influenced Chinese researchers, the topics of interest for Chinese researchers did not necessarily reflect those of Western researchers.
This course has introduced multiple perspectives and presented culturally diverse research examining all phases of human development. For this Discussion, consider what led research to be conducted to examine diverse settings and groups. Was it an attempt to broaden the population within which the findings could be applied, a reaction to a gap in the literature, or perhaps a critique of a conclusion or theory?
If you have not had an opportunity to delve into a statistics or methodology course, some of the techniques in this week’s research articles might be confusing, but the process that the researchers used should be understandable.

WEEKLY RESOURCES
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review this week’s Learning Resources and consider the applicability of American/Western developmental psychology to Non-Western countries and cultures.
Post your thoughts about the applicability of American/Western developmental psychology to Non-Western countries and cultures. Explain why it is important for developmental psychology to consider cross-cultural perspectives explaining human development.

Write up a case study example as if you are the therapist and you are meeting with a client who is experiencing either generalized anxiety disorder OR major depressive disorder.
Research indicates that there is a ‘window of opportunity’ for learning a second language. That is, the capacity to distinguish and make sounds (phonemes) diminishes with age. Older children and adults can still learn a second language, but it tends to take longer. Also those who learn at a later age are less likely to speak like a native (i.e., without an accent; Golinkoff & Hirsch-Pasek, 2000).
Some people worry that starting kids on a second language will interfere with their ability to learn English language skills, however the opposite appears to be true. There is recent research about the dual language approach to learning language being effective, as well as immersion (King & Mackey, 2007).
What evidence is there for how learning a second language learning can benefit children’s development (cognitive, social, academic, etc)?
Responding to this question “counts” as a discussion response.

Andrew Jackson’s Presidency is surrounded with controversy. From increased presidential authority and his battle with the national bank, to the push for a limited government and the Indian Removal Act, his actions greatly changed the trajectory of the United States.
Was the Age of Jackson truly an age of democracy?
Were his action and decisions better connected to that of an absolute monarch or one who cares for the people of his country?
