DEVELOPMENT OF THE BRAIN: Neural Development and Plasticity Brain Growth Spurt– Period between the seventh prenatal month and 2 years of age when more than half of the child’s eventual brain weight is added. Brain Growth Spurt Begins Here

DEVELOPMENT OF THE BRAIN: Neural Development and Plasticity Some Basic Definitions: Synapse – the connective space (juncture) between one nerve cell (neuron) and another.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE BRAIN: Neural Development and Plasticity Some Basic Definitions: Synapse – the connective space (juncture) between one nerve cell (neuron) and another. Neurons – nerve cells that receive and transmit neural impulses

DEVELOPMENT OF THE BRAIN: Neural Development and Plasticity Some Basic Definitions: Synapse – the connective space (juncture) between one nerve cell (neuron) and another. Neurons – nerve cells that receive and transmit neural impulses Glia – nerve cells that nourish neurons and encase them in insulating sheaths of myelin.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE BRAIN: Neural Development and Plasticity Some Basic Definitions Cont’d: Synaptogenesis – formation of connections (synapses) among neurons. Plasticity – capacity for change; a developmental state that has the potential to be shaped by experience.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE BRAIN: Neural Development and Plasticity Some Basic Definitions Cont’d: Synaptic pruning – surviving neurons that are stimulated less often lose their synapses.

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT: About Brain Development 1.Brain Stem and Midbrain– most mature at birth - consciousness - reflexes - respiration - digestion - elimination

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT: About Brain Development 2.Surrounding Midbrain are the Cerebrum & Cerebral Cortex - movement - perception - learning - language - thinking

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT Earliest Maturing areas of the cerebrum are the Primary Motor & Sensory Areas Darker, dot-like areas mature first, then the lined areas, and finally the clear areas develop in adolescence

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT

Neural Development & Plasticity Lateralization Evident from birth Increases with age Get better with age at integrating functions of each hemisphere Dyslexia

ENVIROMENTAL INFLUENCES Nutrition Problems of Under nutrition: Catch-up growth Marasmus (insufficient protein & calories) Kwashiorkor (insufficient protein, but sufficient calories) Vitamin & mineral deficiencies Iron deficiency anemia

ENVIROMENTAL INFLUENCES Nutrition Problems of OVER nutrition: Obesity Diabetes, high blood pressure, heart, liver & kidney disease Social impact

ENVIROMENTAL INFLUENCES Nutrition Illnesses Emotional Stress/Lack of Affection Nonorganic failure to thrive Deprivation dwarfism

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT Puberty Adolescent Growth Spurt: the rapid increase in physical growth that marks the beginning of adolescence. Puberty: the point at which a person reaches sexual maturity and is physically capable of fathering or conceiving a child.

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT Puberty: the point at which a person reaches sexual maturity and is physically capable of fathering or conceiving a child. Also refers to the physical changes that occur as child passes from child to adult.

CHANGES IN PUBERTY 1.Rapid growth/Weight Gain 2.Further development of gonads 3.Secondary sexual characteristics 4.Changes in muscle/fat compositions 5.Changes in circulatory & respiratory systems

WHAT CAUSES PUBERTY? All of these changes triggered by hormones No new hormones produced at puberty Increase of hormones Testosterone Estrogen Growth Hormone

Hormonal Influences on Development Hypothalamus Pituitary Gland Thyroid Adrenal Glands Growth Hormone TestesOvaries Thyroxine AndrogenTestosteroneEstrogen Early brain growth Bone growth Muscular growth Bone growth General growth of body tissues Adolescent growth spurt Male reprod. organs before birth Maturation of male organs Voice,facial & body hair, muscle dev., bone growth, broad shoulders Female reprod. Organs Breasts, hips Body hair

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT Puberty Girls Boys

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT

SEXUAL MATURATION GIRLS: Begins about age 11 (breasts) Menstruation about age 13 Fertility (at or after menstruation)

SEXUAL MATURATION BOYS: Begins about age 11 or 12 (testes enlarge) Fertility about age 14.5 or 15 VARIATIONS IN TIMING OF PUBERTY (BOYS & GIRLS) Heredity (identical twins similar timing) Environment

SEXUAL MATURATION Psychosocial Influences of Puberty Boys that mature earlier Girls that mature “on-time”

SEXUAL MATURATION Teenage Pregnancy U.S. rates = +1 million/year 50% miscarriage or abortion 2 million babies next 4 years 2X higher in U.S.

SEXUAL MATURATION Teenage Pregnancy CONSEQUENCES for Mom: Loss of education Loss of social network Lower income Lifestyle changes

SEXUAL MATURATION Teenage Pregnancy CONSEQUENCES for Baby Higher probability of: Prematurity Drug exposure Poor nutrition Less sensitive/experienced mom Intellectual deficits Emotional disturbances Economically disadvantaged
