Answer preview
The ability to express different behaviors is associated with mindset allowing people to predict and explain people’s behavior as actions are linked with the mind. Between the ages of 3 years to 5 years, children hold in their mind’s knowledge of reality (van der Wilt, van der Veen, van Kruistum, & van Oers, 2019). Social impact is acquired by adding how a child views themselves and how others view them to determine how the class will view them. For example, children highly liked and disliked have a high social impact, while children with low social impact are mostly neglected. Sociometric characteristics positively and negatively impact a child’s future as most carry their behaviors until old age. For example, in a classroom, some children are highly liked by both their peers and teachers, while teachers highly like others and are highly disliked by their peers due to their controversial behaviors.
