The ecological perspective emerged from ecological theories in biology, particularly the work of scientists who studied the relationship between living organisms and their environment. Later, social scientists adapted these ideas to explain human behavior and social functioning. During the 1970s, social work scholars integrated ecological concepts into professional practice, emphasizing that individuals and environments continuously influence one another. This marked a significant shift from approaches that focused only on individual pathology to those that considered social, economic, and community factors.
