Show Notes
In this episode of The Psychology Undergrad, we break down the developmental niche framework and show how children’s development is shaped by physical settings, caregiving routines, and caregiver beliefs. By comparing parenting practices across cultures, we illustrate how development is always embedded in context—and why psychology can’t assume one “normal” childhood.
