In assessing Emma’s case, an analysis of her dynamic systems and the interrelatedness between the biological, social, psychological, and developmental factors, reveals that Emma has had major deficiencies, effecting her early/middle childhood life span development. Thus, the traumas in which Emma has experienced, will nevertheless negatively affect her continued development into adulthood, if her undesired, aggressive behaviors do not produce successful and consistent interventions.
