Concept information
Preferred term
social change and human development
Definition
- It has become commonplace to consider contexts of varying proximity to the individual in theories and empirical research about human development. A major guideline for the inclusion of contexts was Bronfenbrenner's (1979) differentiation of interactional systems operating on individual development, with the macrosystem representing the interplay between factors such as culture, shared value systems, and legislation, and more immediate contexts such as family, school, workplace, and neighborhoods.
