Q

Otitus Media and Daycare attending Toddlers

A
  • purpose examine effect of OM on children in three daycare situations - children (12-18 months) were divided into chromic and non chronic OM- cildren were given a picture book and reading task, Results - mothers rated kids with chronic OM as less attentive - children with chronic OM in low quality daycare setting, attended less and shared more off task behavior on the picture book

Q

The ecological Approach - Bronfenbrenner

A
  • “embedded in the real world- believed development exists in a series of nested concepts Microsystem - individuals immediate surroundings, families, friends, coworkers, people you go to church with Mesosystem - connections among microsystems, parents interacting with teachers Exosystem - doesn’t directly contain the individual but influences them, teacher snapping at there kids becuase of a bad work day Macrosystem- values, ideals, customs and laws of a particular culture, in the U.S very scared of birht, highly sexual mediaChronosystem - (temporal/time) - having a sister, 4 years apart, children born during the pandemic

98
Q
A
99
Q

Germinal Period

A
  • conception - week 2 - fertilization takes place in the fallopian tube, sperm swim throught uterus and fallopian tube - hostile process - all along this sperm are dying - one sperm fertilizes the eg - cell divides and divides - Day 5 - hallow ball of cells form = Blastocyst Day 9 = attaches to uterine wall, inner cell mass detaches and forms embryonic discDay 15 - missed period possibly, but most people only have slight change
