Detailed Explanation
Understanding Growth and Development in Child Psychology
In child psychology, a clear distinction exists between 'Growth' and 'Development'.
- Growth: Refers to quantitative changes in physical size, weight, and height, which stops once maturation is reached.
- Development: Is a comprehensive, continuous, and qualitative process that continues throughout life (from conception to death), encompassing physical, mental, emotional, and social changes.
According to the principles of development, this process proceeds in directions such as Cephalocaudal (head-to-toe) and Proximodistal (center-to-outwards).
