Recognizing Relational Interactions with Social Institutions in Refugee Children’s Experiences of Intertwining Vulnerability and Agency
In this paper, we examine relational interactions between refugee children and social institutions, building the case for the recognition of the co-occurrence and intertwining of vulnerability and agency in children's experiences in diverse refugee situations. This developmental relational approach offers refinement of a general relational worldview by specifying how vulnerable and agentic experiences are co-constructed by children and adult indi…
Perspectives and feelings of refugee children from Syria and Iraq about places and relations as they resettle in Australia
Refugee children's experiences are situated in specific places where they interact with significant people. They are not usually asked about their perspectives although they are social agents with distinctive perspectives and feelings about relationships and events. We investigated the perspectives of refugee children on their experiences of places and relations as they resettled in Australia after their families fled from violence in Syria and I…
Computer-Assisted Expressions of the Perspectives of Refugee Children in Resettlement
Understanding the perspectives of refugee children on their lives is important for acknowledging children’s rights, competence, and contributions to practice and policy. Children’s perspectives are the views they construct for framing events, relationships and images, and the meanings they convey in relational coactions with other people and institutions. We demonstrate the usefulness of digital technology in the form of computer-assisted intervi…

Positioning Children in Developmental Analyses of Cultural Conflicts
In this commentary on intervention studies in times and situations of war, violence and cultural conflict, I focus on the need to appropriately position children in specific situations. This involves acknowledging their presence and their rights, recognizing their participation, and incorporating their activities with the sociocultural and ecological environments. To theoretically position children in cultural conflict, I draw on Gottlieb's [1991…

The Strengths and Skills of Children: Self-Descriptions of Somali and Local Australian Children
In this chapter, we focus on how Somali primary school children describe their personal strengths and school-related skills. They are growing up in relation to both their Somali Islamic heritage culture and the Australian national culture held out to them in their schools. We used computerized and illustrated paired comparison tasks to investigate the Somali children’s self-descriptions. We compared their self-described personal strengths with th…
Conceptual Roots of Internalization: From Transmission to Transformation
The concept of internalization is traced through two lines of theorizing that include Freudian and social-learning accounts of socialization and the sociogenetic theories of general mental functions and development held by Janet, Baldwin, and Vygotsky. An account of internalization as transformation is presented. An analysis of earlier theorists’ views is proposed as a foundation for regarding internalization as a process involving transformation…

Culture and Cognitive Development: Giyoo Hatano’s Insights and the Questions They Open
To bring out Giyoo Hatano’s contributions to the understanding of culture and cognitive development, we note first his special style – thoughtful, inventive, and always focused on central issues and on combining theory with data – and then, for three areas, some of the conceptual advances he proposed. The areas have to do with ties between cognitive and social development (links between skills and identity provide the selected advance), the natur…
The Many Faces of Everyday Life: Some Challenges to the Psychology of Cultural Practice
We address the issue of how cultural psychologies relate to human everyday life-worlds. Everyday life entails the extraordinary within the ordinary, and vice versa- often described as cultural practices. We present the case of an involuntary event-breaking a leg-with all its temporarily debilitating experiences. The person became involved in a series of new activities of meaning construction as a way of reorganizing her life during the recovery p…
Making Personal Sense: An Account of Basic Internalization and Externalization Processes
This paper presents an account of basic internalization/externalization processes as the vehicle by which socio-cultural meanings are turned into personal sense systems. Such systems guide persons’ actions in respect to their environments. Social and personal worlds constantly mutually constrain each other in ways that lead to transformations in both. Internalization and reciprocal externalization occur as the person takes in and transforms socia…

The Personal and the Social: Mead's Theory of the `Generalized Other'
Contemporary sociocultural theories of the development of the self in society need to explain how the social becomes personal and how development can occur in each domain. George Herbert Mead' s concept of the `Generalized Other' gives an account of the social origin of self-consciousness while retaining the transforming function of the personal. Contextualized in Mead's theory of intersubjectivity, the Generalized Other is a special case of role…
Conceptual Transposition, Parallelism, and Interdisciplinary Communication
In Chapter 2, Michael Shanahan, Jaan Valsiner, and Gilbert Gottlieb address the usefulness of common concepts for describing human development and discuss their transposition across psychobiology, psychology, and sociology. The concepts are identified as theoretical principles of human development that arise out of “an epigenetic characterization of development as an emergent coactional hierarchical system” (Gottleib 1991a, p. 7). We interpret th…
Developmental Science: A Case of the Bird Flapping Its Wings or the Wings Flapping the Bird?
In Chapter 1, Terry Winegar urges developmental scientists to reflect on their scientific practices. Reflection, including self–reflection about the researcher's own scientific aims and assumptions, should result in explicit clarification of goals and theoretical commitments, and their methodological derivations. Effective work on the central questions of the field is dependent on a clear understanding of the multiple levels involved in research …
Requiem or Recognition: Not Omniscient and Not Plain Informants
Wassmann's (1995) analysis is complemented by questioning the adequacy of supposed omniscient and expert knowledge of the ideal type who traditionally informed investigators about how 'order is made out of chaos' in his or her culture. Stratification of societies by any criterion-age sets, gender groups or differentiation of 'experts' from 'novices' reflects the fact that not all problems are consciously known by all members of a society. Relying…

Pathologist as Gatekeeper: Discretionary Decision‐making in Cases of Sudden Infant Death
In many cases of unexpected infant death the cause of death cannot be ascertained. It has become convention to call such cases ‘SIDS’ (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). A simulation study of pathologists' decision‐making found that there were significant differences in the procedure adopted and the diagnosis of cause of death in such cases. It was found that their decision‐making was influenced by factors such as experience, training and most import…

Homeless in the mind: A case-history of personal life in and out of a close orthodox community
A sociogenetic theoretical framework is applied to Berger, Berger, and Kellner's (1973) concept of cultural homelessness, extending its use beyond the sociological effects of modernity to the psychological development of persons who are closely tied to their collective-cultural contexts. The theory is grounded in the bidirectionality of cultural transmission, and the construction of culture in different cultural members. The construction of inter…

Australian University Students' Views of the Nuclear Arms Race: Comparative and Qualitative Analyses
Australian university students' views of the nuclear arms race were analysed in two studies. A sample comparison study used Nuclear Arms Race Questionnaire (NARQ) and Position on Nuclear Weapons (PNW) scales to compare university students' views with those of high school students and community groups. University students' views were more strongly anti‐nuclear than middle income and Middle European migrant groups, but not more than high school stu…
