Preferred term

development: socio-emotional  

Definition

  • Emotional life, which develops earlier than rational life, is the key to understanding the world in early childhood. However, up to now, less research has been carried out on this important aspect than on others, such as intellectual, linguistic, motor or moral aspects, and this has had a corresponding effect on assessment.
