Q

Tabla Rasa

25
Babies are born as “Blank Slates” TRUE OR FALSE
FALSE
26
Newborns have different
Genes Prenatal environments Obstetrical complication Result: different central nervous systems (i.e. brain) Different socialization cannot explain behavioral and temperamental variation. EXAMPLE:Does every car run equally well on the same gasoline? Is “quality of gas” randomly assigned to each car?
27
Can Socialization Play a Role?
As time passes, Yes! But Remember *Socialization does not occur in a vacuum on a “blank slate” infant/child. Children are “primed” to learn things as a certain level of efficiency.
28
“Quality” of socialization is not randomly assigned to children. TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE | *Leads to problems of causal inference.
29
What is Development?
Complex mix of human systems that converge to produce behaviors.
30
Humans develop physically, cognitively, emotionally, socially, etc.: TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE
31
How Does Social Development work?
Social Development is reflected in increasing context sensitivity.
32
Context sensitivity
Awareness of contextual behavioral expectations Awareness of how certain conduct can lead to environmental conflict Awareness that behavioral control is necessary to navigate social world.
33
Normative Development REQUIRES:
Increasingly advanced, but normative, cognitive functioning (memory, recall, internalized regulation)
34
As children mature:
social experiences can reinforce “neuromuscular development”, alter epigenome as well.
35
Construction of neural pathways linking axon to dendrite increases throughout life. TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE
36
Delayed language development:
vocabulary, receptive language delays, and unintelligible speech.
37
Early childhood and Infancy
is the time where socialization is most likely to have a long lasting effect on behavior.
38
Not all socialization is equally relevant. TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE
39
Most relevant | Socialization
Severe abuse. Severe neglect (absence of bonding object)
40
Abuse
prolonged exposure to intense stress
41
What does abuse do to the brain
Triggers over-activation of H-P System Stimulates excessive release of Cortisol through bloodstream, High basal levels. Impacts developing Brain: effectively engages Sympathetic Nervous System and Shuts down higher brain functions (learning, memory, verbal abilities, etc). Ex: shock/fear
42
Early social bonds matter to the extent that they are
virtually non-existent. (neglect)
43
Two hormones:
oxytocin & Vasopressin related to social bond formation. High baseline levels = better bonding capabilities.
44
Children of severe neglect do not
experience spikes in OT and vasopressin when they experience interaction with bio-matter. (two way causation possible
45
Language facilitates
Socialization/ Relationships Expression/ Exchange of emotions Having your needs met Being academically and occupationally succesful
46
Language is a complex combination of symbols. TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE *symbolizes actions, feelings, thoughts, things etc.
47
To understand language, must understand symbols. TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE *(frontal lobe)
48
Requires abstraction:
categorization of input and appropriate application to multiple contexts.
49
Misunderstanding of social cues increases probability of
inappropriate, strained, difficult interactions and reactions.
50
Just like mislabeling the letters of a word can lead to
misinterpretation of a sentence.
51
People do not inherit language
but do inherit the capacity for language.
52
Brain most amenable to learn a language in first
3 or 4 years of life.
53
Vocabulary is about
85% heritable
54
60-80%
of children with language deficits have Behavioral problems.
55
Average child-
child- 3,000 new words each year
56
Between 86 and 98% of that shaped by
parent child interaction
57
On average, children of professors learn 3 times as many words during childhood as children w/ parents on welfare.TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE
58
Parents with lower vocabularies also tend to provide more negative verbal reinforcement. TRUE OR FALSE
TRUE *This reinforces a disadvantage trajectory in language and aggression
