Q

Coordination of secondary circular rxns (8-12) months

A

Intentional, goal directed behavior, combo of schemes to solve problems
Object permanence = understanding that object will continue to exist when they are out of sight
AB search errors= infants 18-12 months look for an object only in hiding place A, when the object is moved from hiding place A to B
Babies look longer at seemingly impossible events, violation of expectation procedure, carrot going behind screen, similar to block on train

Q

Substage 6 Mental Representation (18 months - 2 yrs)

A

Internal images of absent objects and past events (displaced reference)
A toddler can solve problems, through symbolic means, instead of trial and error, permits make believe play
Deferred Imitation
Ability to copy behavior of models who are not present
Semiotic Function
Using something to stand for something else, doll = baby, Piaget did not think babies could imitate, yet a study disproved, ppl started doing this thing, got close to there face, open mouth, stuck tongue out

Q

Preoperational Stage (2-7 years)

A

play, language development
Centration = only focus on one aspect of problem, not multiple, conservation problem, pouring water
Irreversibility = don’t understand you can pour tall narrow glass back into wider, same amount
Egocentrism - babies and kids see themselves as center of universe, peek a boo
Animism = attribute life like characteristics to inanimate objects, “bad table

Q

Concrete Operational (7-11 years)

A

Can only think logically about things in front of them not hypothetically
Logical operations, conservation develops, coordination of spatial systems, reversibility, seriation= putting things in order , classification = multi levels, cats are also animals

Q

Vgotsky’s Social Constructivist Approach (1934 - 1986)

A

Social and historical context is important, contextual theory
Child engaged in activity,, in context at the “unity of study”
Emphasis on schools (montessori schools)
Biology reigns supreme in infancy but then individuals experience sociogenesis
Thought is co- constructed (socially mediated)

Q

4 levels of development

A

Phylogenetic
Historical - focus on tools that were used historically, how tools change the way we think, texting symbols, implications
Ontogenetic = individual development
Microgenesis = specific skills we have learned

Q

Vgotsky language

A

A

Number naming systems effect on math ability
English speaking kids vs chinese kids
How do number names work in english?
Tested 3-5 year olds, in the U.S 11020 different, in chinese is memorization

Q

Important of Development

A

Motivation enhancement working with others
Importance of apprenticeship (midvies)
Importance of collaborative learning (reading buddies)

24
Q

Critiques of Vygotsky

A

ZPD ambiguity, operational definitions

25
Q

The Sapir Whorf Hypothesis

A

language influences our thought, in english we don’t put gender on nouns, in spanish you do, studies show those who grew up on gendered words impact perceptions

26
Q

Language vs Communication

A

novel/creative flexible can be used in different ways, animal communication, mating, potential threat, arbitrary, words are constructed over time, displace (talk about future/past), interpersonal, we talk differently to kids certain friends, structure, syntax, semantic, phonemes= basic sounds of language, Morphemes = roots of words, prefixes, suffixes

27
Q

Productive Expressive Language Development

A

= crying birth, when hunger, pain, tried, cooing (2-4 months) breahty vowel sounds of sharp contrast, as profreses coos become social, Babbling (4+ months) breathy, harsh, consonants, repetitive, Expressive Jargon (end of 1+) same phonemes, none of morphemes, sometimes have pragmatics down really well, first word (around 13 months) holophrase: when the word has meaning, one word w alot of meaning, two word utterances (18-24 months) telegraphic speech and word spurt “daddy home”

28
Q

Pantanese/child directed speech-

A

you are talking to a child, loud, slower, repetition, speech for babies, research shows pantase facilities language development

29
Q

Overextension/underextension -

A

over= kids take a word and use it too widely, daddy is every guy, under = using a word too narrowly, dog = only there dog

30
Q

Overregularization

A

= making language more predictable than it is, “yesterday I run so fast, I runned” applying past tense they have heard

31
Q

Behavioral Perspective -

A
  • environmental influences, operant conditioning, imitation, parents supporting language, doesn’t do it all all
32
Q

Nativist perspective

A

= biologically, primed to learn language, chomosky = universal grammar, LAD (language acquisition) born with universal grammar rules, Lennerburg (critical period hyp), believed critical period from infancy to puberty, easier to learn language

33
Q

WUG experiment

A

= made up nonsense words, asked them to make plural or possessive, clever because they had never heard these word, mean that they have abstracted how to do endings, not just memorization

34
Q

Sign Language research

A

= found very similar patterns of development, one sign utterances, than 2, couple of differences, signs emerged earlier first word, signs are 100% visible but you can’t see what goes into make a word, hand motor skills also advanced

35
Q

Apes and Language

A

complex systems of communication, not all human characteristics, couple raised baby ape as child, ape learned 4 words, tried to teach ape sign language, larened 129 signs, based on chimp babies, Koko the ape = largest vocab

36
Q

Temperament

A

seed of personality
- biologically driven which interact with environment
- NY longitudional study
- easy child, difficult, slow to warm up child
- the goodness of fit model
- does difficult equal bad

37
Q

9 qualities of temperament

A
  1. extent/level of motor activity
  2. rythmicity, degree of regularity
  3. the response to a new object, or perosn
  4. adaptability
  5. threshold of sensitivty to stimulus
  6. intensity of a response
  7. general mood/disposition
  8. degree of a child’s distractibility
    9 child’s attention span
38
Q

Easy Kids

A

happy, friendly, predictable, don’t mind change

39
Q

Difficult Child

A

cranky, intense, react with intensity, don’t like change, NOT adaptable

40
Q

Slow to warm up child

A
  • in the middle, take them some time, generally adaptable when given time
41
Q

The Goodnes of Fit model

A
  • looked at parents expectations, working parents,
  • difficult babies harder to care for, in these scenarios
  • lower SES, moms working in home don’t care as much
  • thomas and Chess = goodness of fit model
  • NOT about individual characteristics, bt about how parent fits with kids, how they fit with parent and fmailies
42
Q

Study Example

A
  • medically diagnosed disabilities
  • followed 2nd = 6th grade
  • goodness of fit measure = list of all the naughty behavior kdis do,mothers check what kids did
    2nd instrument - how much naughty behavior bothered them, oftne chose ones the kids didn’t do
  • found good and bad fit parent, kid match
  • by 6th grade kids with bade fit- lowest scores, control - bad fit, learning disabilities, good fit, learning disabilties bad fit
43
Q

Masai Effect

A
  • in Africa
  • traveled from water hole to water hold
  • classifed babies group traveled off
    then met up months latter
    severe drought, people, livestock, babies suffered
  • the babies that lived/survived was the difficult babies
  • parents had to placate babies, so recieved more food, attention
44
Q

Cupboard theories of attacthcment

A

Frued = babies attach, because oral fixation is satsified by being fed
Behavorism = we form associations, babies asociate full tummies with parents

45
Q

Harlow’s work with infant monkeys

A
