An outstanding study based upon a study done with 12,000 elementary schoolchildren,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Development of Political Attitudes in Children (Paperback)
The Development Of Political Attitudes In Children knowledgeable co-written by Robert D. Hess (Lee L. Jacks Professor Emeritus of Child Education at Stanford University) and Jaan Valsiner (Professor and Chair of the Department of Human Development, University of Maryland) is an outstanding study based upon a study done with 12,000 elementary schoolchildren to determine the children's political development based upon the general theory of socialization, considering the factors of social class, intelligence, teacher attitude, and religious membership. As an intellectual and highly informative analysis of what causes one's political standing later in life, The Development Of Political Attitudes In Children helps to enlighten the reader of the many constructs of child psychology, what a child's greatest influences are, and how well certain constructs might more easily be retained throughout life. The Development Of Political Attitudes In Children is very strongly recommended to all elementary level teacher reference collections, as well to the reference libraries of child counselors and psychologists.
