Interest for Module
Children are innocent. They are developing factors that affect and get affected by a
number of elements (Eitel, 2017). In order to check the motivation behind the study of
the module named “Childhood Studies and Child Psychology,” this is to be stated that
by the study of this module, one can get to know more and more about the development
of a child. Humans, how they react and behave depends of their upbringing and the
quality of their childhood (Lara, 2017). In childhood, many factors affect the physical and
mental health of children. This is to the most relevant interest that worked as a
motivation behind choosing this module for the study.
In conjunction with this, thinking style was another motivation. Every child is different
from another and too their thinking style. Some of them think very less and some of
them think more. Being children which factors influenced their mind or how they have
started thinking, what are the development stages and how the brain of a child develops
into a young and mature one. One can get the answers to all these questions with the
help of the study of this module. In addition, to understand the issues with children,
there is also a need to understand the related perspectives (Openuniversity.edu, 2018).

It is very interesting to know that what are the factors because of which every person is

connects with the interest is “what is childhood.” This perspective explains many of the
aspects related to childhood in conjunction with the meaning of childhood. According to
the same, many of the factors are there that affect childhood and therefore every child
develops with a different nature. In overall too, childhood is being different over time.
The nature of upbringing and the presence of other factors are changing day by day and
therefore childhood of earlier people was different from the children of today. This
perspective includes all the related aspects of childhood. This supports the nature of
mentioned interest and allows a person to know about the factors, which affect the
childhood of a child. In the area of interest, it has been mentioned above that the lead
interest was to know that what are the factors, which affect the behavior of a person,
and in this manner, the subjective perspective connects with the area of interest. In this
perspective, it is mentioned that culture, religion, social and economic factors, and
gender are some of the factors, which affect the childhood of a child (Johnson, 2018).
These factors are not equally present in case of every child and therefore childhood of
every child is different and they develop into different kind of people. In addition to this,
the perspective informs that there are many issues with each stage of childhood, which
further influence the behavior of children.
