Communicationis an extremely powerful therapeutic tool required by all health professionals. Communication facilitates the expression of thoughts, feelings and attitudes, assists in gathering important information, and supports therapeutic relationships.
In view of this statement:
(i) Define the terms communication and therapeutic communication. [The definitions should be in your own words but supported by scholarly references]
(ii) Identify two (2) barriers to communicating with clients/patients.
(iii) Discuss strategies to effectively manage the two (2) barriers you have identified.
STEPS IN TASK DEVELOPMENT:
Step 1: Use your textbook and scholarly articles to identify definitions of therapeutic communication and learn about specific communication barriers and management strategies you have chosen. Make sure you find evidence to support the existence of the barriers and effectiveness of the strategies to manage the barriers you identified.
Step 2: Consider two (2) important or significant barriers and the key strategies for managing these barriers.
Step 3: Research your ideas further using credible academic sources. [Database searching; academic writing and referencing skills are taught in Weeks 1,2 and 3 to assist you with this task].
Step 4: Write up your findings as a formal piece of scholarly writing, addressing all three questions above.
Include a clear introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion paragraph. The marking rubric indicates the expectations for each component of your essay, at each grade level.
Word limit: 2500 words including in-text references

Human Behaviour and
Developmental Theories
NUR1110
Week 6 Objectives
At the end of this lecture and with further
reading and tutorial activities:
1. Discuss the health professional’s role in
facilitating therapeutic communication;
2. Consider age-related factors in
communication;
3. Discuss 4 major developmental theories;
4. Discuss the impact of developmental
stages on communication
Therapeutic Communication
throughout the Lifespan
Health Professionals provide information, resources and
interventions for patients and families in order to support
and facilitate the healing process.
Human Behaviour is complex and is determined by many
factors.
The nurse/midwife needs to decide the 'appropriate
means' to communicate and establish a therapeutic
relationship with patients and families.
Understanding developmental theory will help with this

Age-related factors challenge
nurses/midwives to adjust their
communication
‘Just as nurses/midwives adjust
the dosage of medication on
the basis of a child's weight so
must communication be altered
to adjust to the child's
developmental age’ .(Stein-Parbury,2014)
Practical Example:Time for an IMI

Developmental theories help to explain normal
development and help health professionals improve
communication by facilitating:
Empathy
Choice of interviewing approach
Appropriate assessment
Risk assessment
Implementation of interventions
Boundary issues
Developmental Theories
1. Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive
Development
Based on direct observation of children.
Assimilation and Accomodation
4 periods of development
– Sensorimotor (0-2 yrs)
– Preoperational (2-7 yrs)
– Concrete operations (7-11)
– Formal operations (11-15+)
Schemas
Schemas are categories of knowledge that
help us to interpret and understand the
world.
According to Piaget, a schema includes both
a category of knowledge and the process of
obtaining that knowledge.

Assimilation
The process of taking in new information
into our already existing schemas is known
as assimilation.
Accommodation
Accommodation involves modifying existing
schemas.
Sensory stage: birth to 2
Development of:
Reflexes or actions
Self-initiated activities
Circular motions: Repetition
Object permanence
28/03/2017
5
Preoperational: Age 2-7
Marked by:Centration: Focus on 1 aspect
Egocentism: Everyone experiences what I
do
Irreversibility: Cannot reverse direction
Difficulty with Conservation tasks: Ability to
determine that a certain quantity will remain
the same despite adjustment to
shape/apparent size.
Concrete operations: 7-11 years
Mental operations applied to concrete
events
Mastery of conservation
Decentration
Reversibility
Less Egocentric
Formal operations 11+ years
Mental operations applied to:
Abstract ideas
Logical, systematic thinking
Reasoning

2. Sigmond Freud’s
Psychosexual Theory
" The underlying stimulis for human behaviour is
libido".
Behaviour is due to 3 elements of the conscious
and unconscious mind:
• ID (pleasure principle)
• EGO (reality principle)
• SUPER EGO (values & morals)
Freud on Id
Freud-developed idea of split between
conscious/unconscious mind
Development: Based on psychosexual stages: Oral, Anal,
Phallic, Latency, & Genital stages

PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT:
Erikson
Series of tasks or crisis that must be
achieved
Whilst not essential to master one task in
order to move onto the next, failure to do
so may be damaging to development of
the ego. Erikson emphasises the need to
adapt.
Consider: A building process, solid
foundation, easier to build on however
corrective experiences possible
Erikson’s 8 stages of
psychosocial development

MORAL DEVELOPMENT
A child’s social world begins with family.
Social behaviour is taught at home (pick up
your toys).
As their social sphere expands. Children
acquire rules of thought and action that go
beyond simple commands
Kohlberg’s theory of moral development
Moral reasoning progresses through series of stages
– Stage 1-2: Pre-conventional 4-10 years (right and
wrong determined by rewards and punishment)
– Stage 3-4: Conventional 10-15 years (rules are
necessary for maintaining social order and approval-
internalise rules as absolute guidelines)
– Stage 5-6: Post-conventional stages 15 + (personal
code of ethics, some flexibility to rules but with strong
ethics)
Heinz’s dilemma

Moral dilemmas in health care
1. Terminal Lung Ca patient wants to
smoke.
2. Family doesn't want to let their
Grandmother to know she has terminal
pancreatic cancer.
3. Caring for a patient suffering
complications of an illegal abortion.

Developmental theory and
therapeutic communication
Pulling it all together…..
People have unique healthcare needs resulting from their
developmental level.
To give holistic person centered care, it is imperative to
understand the typical growth and development
characteristics and needs of patients.
Utilizing concepts of developmental theory allows nurses to
identify why people respond the way they do.
Understanding developmental theory assists with empathy
and communication
Conclusion
Utilising the concepts of the developmental
theories allows nurses and midwives to
identify why people respond the way that
they do and identify barriers to
communication that may occur.

Reflection
Take some time to reflect on your own
lifespan journey and how your personal
experience of attachment, family, personality,
social relationships, morality, learning and
stage of life, relates to where you are now,
and where you are going in the future. What
impact will your experiences have on your
interactions with patients?
