What is child psychology?
Child psychology studies various aspects of a human’s development through their childhood. Whilst the primary focus is on the earlier years, child psychology does still explore infancy, childhood, and adolescence. It is a specific branch of development psychology, dealing with not just the child’s physical development, but their mental, emotional, and social development also.
During this Child Psychology QLS Level 3 course, you will explore the psychoanalytical perspective, different types of attachment, the social learning theory, and much more.
