In Bronfenbenner's Theory, what is the most influential level of the ecological system?
chronosystem
microsystem

macrosystem
In Bronfenbrenner's theory, it is the layer closest to the child and contains the structures with which the child has direct contact. It encompasses the relationships and interactions a child has with her immediate surroundings.

microsystem
exosystem
macrosystem
chronosystem
(Bronfenbrenner's Theory) The connection between the child's teacher and his parents and between his church and his neighborhood is an example of this layer.
