- W78138977 abstract "Development refers to the sequence of changes in the characteristics of humans as they grow older. Among West Africans, multiple caregivers promote this process by integrating children gradually but actively into the family and community through socializing intelligence and responsibility at different stations of life, beginning from an early age. The characterization of ontogeny as a cumulative social process differs in theoretical focus from the individualistic perspectives of mainstream theorists. As a framework in proximity to developmental phenomena, social ontogeny constitutes an alternative to the extant approaches that trivialize or ignore patterns of development in non-Euro-American peoples. It can thread together as biocultural phenomena, domains of psychological development that have hitherto been separated too artificially. The approach compels a paradigm shift that requires culturization of theory and method to address development in context. The heart of research is collaborative interdisciplinary networking that permits several disciplines to cross-fertilize and enrich theory, method, and practice. A learning posture can foster the creativity needed to attend to all versions of developmental knowledge. Indigenous psychology is not cultural essentialism; it is the product of the discourse between mentalities and the factors that shape them, whether in postmodern or modernizing societies." @default.
