Myers EXPLORING PSYCHOLOGY (6th Edition in Modules) Infancy and Childhood James A. McCubbin, PhD Clemson University Worth Publishers

Infancy and Childhood: Physical Development Maturation biological growth processes that enable orderly changes in behavior relatively uninfluenced by experience

Infancy and Childhood: Physical Development At birth 3 months 15 months Cortical Neurons The brain is immature at birth As the child matures, the neural networks grow increasingly more complicated

Infancy and Childhood: Physical Development Babies only 3 months old can learn that kicking moves a mobile- and can retain that learning for a month

Infancy and Childhood: Cognitive Development Schema a concept or framework that organizes and interprets information Assimilation interpreting one’s new experience in terms of one’s existing schemas

Infancy and Childhood: Cognitive Development Accommodation adapting one’s current understandings (schemas) to incorporate new information Cognition All the mental activities associated with thinking, knowing, remembering, and communicating

Piaget’s Stages of Cognitive Development Typical Age Range Description of Stage Developmental Phenomena Birth to nearly 2 years Sensorimotor Experiencing the world through senses and actions (looking, touching, mouthing) Object permanence Stranger anxiety About 2 to 6 years About 7 to 11 years About 12 through adulthood Preoperational Representing things with words and images but lacking logical reasoning Pretend play Egocentrism Language development Concrete operational Thinking logically about concrete events; grasping concrete analogies and performing arithmetical operations Conservation Mathematical transformations Formal operational Abstract reasoning Abstract logic Potential for moral reasoning

Infancy and Childhood: Cognitive Development Object Permanence the awareness that things continue to exist even when not perceived

Infancy and Childhood: Cognitive Development Baby Mathematics Shown a numerically impossible outcome, infants stare longer (Wynn, 1992) 1. Objects placed in case. 2. Screen comes up. 3. Object is removed. 4. Impossible outcome: Screen drops, revealing two objects. 4. Possible outcome: one object.

Infancy and Childhood: Cognitive Development Conservation the principle that properties such as mass, volume, and number remain the same despite changes in the forms of objects

Infancy and Childhood: Cognitive Development Egocentrism the inability of the preoperational child to take another’s point of view Theory of Mind people’s ideas about their own and others’ mental states- about their feelings, perceptions, and thoughts and the behavior these might predict Autism a disorder that appears in childhood marked by deficient communication, social interaction and understanding of others’ states of mind

Social Development Stranger Anxiety Attachment fear of strangers that infants commonly display beginning by about 8 months of age Attachment an emotional tie with another person shown in young children by their seeking closeness to the caregiver and showing distress on separation

Social Development Harlow’s Surrogate Mother Experiments monkeys preferred contact with the comfortable cloth mother, even while feeding from the nourishing wire mother

Social Development Critical Period Imprinting an optimal period shortly after birth when an organism’s exposure to certain stimuli or experiences produces proper development Imprinting the process by which certain animals form attachments during a critical period very early in life

Social Development Monkeys raised by artificial mothers were terror-stricken when placed in strange situations without their surrogate mothers.

Social Development 20 40 60 80 100 3.5 5.5 7.5 9.5 11.5 13.5 29 Percentage of infants who cried when their mothers left Age in months Day care Home Groups of infants left by their mothers in a unfamiliar room (from Kagan, 1976).

Social Development Basic Trust (Erik Erikson) Self-Concept a sense that the world is predictable and trustworthy said to be formed during infancy by appropriate experiences with responsive caregivers Self-Concept a sense of one’s identity and personal worth

Social Development- Child-Rearing Practices Authoritarian parents impose rules and expect obedience “Don’t interrupt”. “Why? Because I said so.” Permissive submit to children’s desires, make few demands, use little punishment Authoritative both demanding and responsive set rules, but explain reasons and encourage open discussion
