Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The microsystem refers to the immediate environment in which the child lives, such as their family, school, and friends. Parental alcohol dependence, children who are handicapped, and abusive spousal relationships all involve individuals within the microsystem. However, community violence is considered part of the exosystem, which refers to the environment outside of the child's immediate surroundings but still has an indirect impact on their development.
