The essay should present an in-depth background review of the three proposed psychological approaches: Developmental, Cognitive and Behavioural.
In your discussion and for each approach you need to present the main theories and define the important figures.
• Compare and contrast each approach and critically define your own personal opinions. You should incorporate any ethical issues that may arise from the methodology used in each approach.
• Discuss the way each approach has contributed to the field of Psychology. Highlight the importance of each school of thought and the classic theories that are involved in each one by presenting their strengths and their weaknesses. How these approaches help in explaining observed phenomena? What are their limitations? Once again, referencing the literature is required to authenticate the views expressed.
