Great minds in psychology: Urie Bronfenbrenner


Urie Bronfenbrenner (1917-2005): American psychologist. Ecological theory has the approach that development occurs through processes of integration between the individual and his immediate environment, which are influenced by more remote contexts
• Microsystem: setting in which the individual interacts with other everyday
• Mesosystem: integration between two or more microsystems
• Exosystem: links between a micro and systems or external institutions (where the individual actively participated)
• Macrosystem: global cultural patterns
• Chronosystem: effects of time on other systems, degree of stability or change in the person or the environment
