2. Contexts of development: Childbirth
What information does this scene provide about the contexts (cultural, socioeconomic, historical etc.) in which this birth is occurring?
What does this birth environment suggest about the future care and well-being of this child?
What does the “breast crawl” suggest about the child’s role in their development? Active/passive?

10. Erikson Neo-Freudian Psychosocial theory
More emphasis on cultural influences
Children as active explorers

11. Erikson’s stages Trust vs. mistrust (birth-1 yr.)
Autonomy vs. shame (1-3)
Initiative vs. guilt (3-6)
Industry vs. inferiority (6-11)
Identity vs. role confusion (Adolescence)
Intimacy vs. isolation (Early adulthood)
Generativity vs. stagnation (Middle adulthood)
Ego integrity vs. despair (Late adulthood)

14. Piaget Greatest influence on modern study of development
Children are explorers who actively construct knowledge of world
Study using open-ended clinical interviews
Four broad stages of development
(assumed NO changes past adolescence!)

15. Important Piagetian concepts
Scheme/a: organized pattern of though/action to explain experience (e.g., your idea of what going to a movie is like: arrive, buy tickets, sit down, etc.)
Assimilation: interpretation using existing cognitive structures (e.g., You like Sara and think she’s nice. She hits your car, you assume it was an accident.)
Accommodation: changing existing schemas to explain new experience (e.g., You hear a nasty rumor about Sara. You believe it and so you decide that she’s not a nice person and stop talking to her.)

16. Four stages of development
Sensorimotor: infant sensation and movement to explore (birth-2 yrs.)
Preoperational: symbolic, but illogical thinking based on early action patterns
(2-7)
Concrete-operational: more organized cognition and reasoning (7-11)
Formal-operational: complex, abstract reasoning system (11 yrs.+)

18. Piaget's Sensorimotor stage
0-2 years
Object Permanence
The understanding that objects and persons continue to exist even when they cannot be seen (8-12 mos.)
A-not-B error, perseverance

Other Piagetian tasks

22. Teratogens Environmental agent (drug, chemical, virus, other)
contributes to a birth defect/damage during prenatal development
70-80% of cases the exact cause of birth defect or damage remains unknown

23. FAS/FAE

24. Teratogens: FAS/FAE Case of Iyal
FAS is a permanent condition. It affects every aspect of an individual’s life and the lives of his or her family.

27. The newborn Reflexes: Unlearned, organized, involuntary responses
Automatic in response to certain stimuli
In newborns, shortly thereafter
May even be well-practiced before birth!

28. Infant imitation:
Imitate basic visual and auditory sensory input within a few hours
E.g., facial expressions and movements
