Question

Text:
Understanding social and personality development requires looking at children from thee perspectives that interact to shape development. The first is the social context in which each child lives, especially the relationships that provide security, guidance, and knowledge.

Comments

Ex 1. I like that this doesn't mention any type of relationship but rather just specific qualities of relationships. That's important since we are involved in a myriad of relationships, not just obvious ones like through our parents/friends.

Ex 2. This is a very long-winded and overly complicated way of saying that your experiences influence who you become.

Ex 3. Humans crave relationships with others. It is how we form our sense of self and identity - through the social roles and influences we experience throughout our lives. It would be difficult to study human development without also studying relationships.

Which of the above comments you think is the most and least effective and why. Refer to the above holistic description of a high-quality reading comment to explain why. Refer to the holistic description to explain why.

Answer 1

The most effective comment is Ex 3 because it expands on the idea of relationships in social and personality development by emphasizing the importance of relationships in forming one's sense of self and identity. The comment also connects the concept of relationships to human development, which aligns with the holistic description that emphasizes the significance of relationships in providing security, guidance, and knowledge.

On the other hand, the least effective comment is Ex 2 because it simplifies the holistic description by stating that experiences influence who we become without delving into the importance of relationships in shaping development. The comment also dismisses the detailed explanation provided in the holistic description as being "long-winded and overly complicated," which indicates a lack of engagement with the material.
