It discusses the different aspects of preschoolers’ social competencies that allow children – including adopted, immigrant, or at-risk children – to create and maintain relationships, communicate, and to get along with other people at home, in daycare or school, and other situations. Chapters explore how children’s social competencies reflect the features of the social worlds in which they live and grow. In addition, chapters examine the extent that different cultural value orientations manifest in children’s social functioning and escribes how parents in autonomy-oriented cultures tend to value different social skills than parents with relatedness or autonomous-relatedness orientations. The book concludes with recommendations for future research directions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTopics featured in this book include:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGender development in young children.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeer interactions and relationships during the preschool years.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSibling interactions in western and non-western cultural groups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe roles of grandparents in child development.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocialization and development in refugee children.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChild development within institutional care.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eChildren’s Social Worlds in Cultural \u003c\/i\u003eContext is a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians\/practitioners, and graduate students in developmental psychology, child and school psychology, social work, cultural anthropology, family studies, and education.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2019-09-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030270322\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-27033-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 243\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47527330119820,"sku":"9783030270322","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030270322.jpg?v=1776039525","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030270322","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
