2. Unit 7 FRQ
Kim Kardashian is having an emotional breakdown because of her failed marriage to NBA (non) Super Star Kris Humphries. "I invited all these people to this huge wedding and flew everyone out, wasted everyone's time and everyone's money -- everyone's everything -- and I feel bad!" she says. "At 30 years old, I thought I'd be married with kids and I'm not. I failed at this. People change their minds, people make mistakes.“
Explain Kim’s emotions using the following theories:
James Lange
Cannon-Bard
Schacter Singer Two Factor

3. Developmental Psychology
Babies, and kids, and adults, and old people

4. IX. Developmental Psychology (7–9%)
Developmental psychology deals with the behavior of organisms from conception to
processing).
• Compare and contrast models of moral development (e.g., Kohlberg, Gilligan).
death and examines the processes that contribute to behavioral change throughout
• Discuss maturational challenges in adolescence, including related family
the life span. The major areas of emphasis in the course are prenatal development,
conflicts.
• Explain how parenting styles influence development.
motor development, socialization, cognitive development, adolescence, and adulthood.
• Characterize the development of decisions related to intimacy as people mature.
AP students in psychology should be able to do the following:
• Predict the physical and cognitive changes that emerge as people age, including

steps that can be taken to maximize function.

• Describe how sex and gender influence socialization and other aspects of

• Identify key contributors in developmental psychology (e.g., Mary Ainsworth,
• Discuss maturation of motor skills.
Albert Bandura, Diana Baumrind, Erik Erikson, Sigmund Freud, Carol Gilligan,
• Describe the influence of temperament and other social factors on attachment

and appropriate socialization.
• Explain the maturation of cognitive abilities (e.g., Piaget’s stages, information

5. Introduction and babies
Developmental issues, prenatal development, and the newborn

6. Major Issues Nature vs Nurture (interrelationships)
Continuity and Stages (stage concept is useful)
Stability and Change (some things are stable {temperament} /some things change {social attitudes})

7. Prenatal development and the newborn

8. conception
REVIEW!!
Ovulation- woman’s ovaries releases a mature egg ( women are born with all the eggs we will ever have- but only 1 in 5000 will ever mature and be released)
200 million sperm attack the released egg (men are sperm factories after puberty, as in 1000 a second)
The egg is the size of a period on your paper (85,000x the size of a sperm)
Digestive enzyme released by the sperm break away at the wall
When one breaks through, it enters, and the rest of the sperm are frozen, and the nuclei will fuse within half a day

12. Prenatal development
Zygotes (fertilized eggs) fewer than half survive the first 2 weeks
10 days after conception, the egg attaches to the uterine wall
Inner cells become the embryo, outer cells become the placenta (transfers nutrients and oxygen from mother to child)
During the next six weeks, the organ begin to grow and function and heart begins to beat
9 weeks after conception, the embryo looks human- now a “fetus”
By 6 months, the baby could live probably survive if born premature

14. Prenatal development By 6 months, the baby is responsive to sound
Newborns prefer their mother’s voice as well as the mother’s language
Newborns’ cries match the melodic ups and downs of their mother’s language

15. Teratogens
Agents such as viruses and drugs that can reach the embryo or fetus during development and cause harm
Alcohol
Drugs
Zika virus

16. Fetal alcohol syndrome
Physical and cognitive abnormalities in children caused by a pregnant woman’s drinking. In severe cases, signs include a small, out of proportion head and abnormal facial features

17. The newborn Automatic reflexes Habituation
Rooting reflex
Pain withdrawal
Swallowing
Breathing
Sucking
Crying
Habituation- decreasing responsiveness with repeated stimuli

18. We love our mothers
We know the smell of our mother and prefer it to other things
Breastfeeding (good for you and the baby)

19. Infancy and childhood: Physical development

20. Brain development
Maturation- biological growth processes that enable orderly changes in behavior, relatively uninfluenced by experience
Brain and mind develop together (hardware and software- nice analogy from the text)
Branching neural networks after birth
