Fear
stranger anxiety; first appearance around 6 mos., becomes more intense around 9 mos., and peaks around 1 yr.

what factors influence stranger anxiety:

-child’s temperament, shy, passive children tend to experience stronger stranger anxiety.

-Past experiences with strangers; if a child isn’t left with strangers often then the fear will be stronger.
-Control over the situation; monkey with symbols study, when the child had no control it scared them more. When they had the control then they were interested.

-Stranger; adult vs. child: children elicit the least amount of fear, this is adaptive because adults pose more threat than another child does. ; behavior: there are things that a stranger can do to make children less fearful. Be cheerful, friendly

Freud –Psychoanalytic Theory
we are attached through food, breast, mother


PROBLEM:
this meant that fathers wouldn’t be attached.
Harlow-Learning Theory
monkey study: found that they are attached because of caregiver not because of food

baby monkeys taken from mother given to a terrycloth doll, but not food, instinctive need to cling to another body for emotional attachment, another wire feeding area, only when very hungry does he go to the bottle. 22hrs a day on cloth monkey, only when starving did they go to other. If they are returned to other monkeys outside of isolation they found they would adjust
Bowlby : Ethological Theory
both infant and caregiver form attachments; adults attach just as much as children
Ainsworth, strange situation

-Reunion: mother leaves baby along with a stranger two times and the returns two times>
-first time baby and stranger, second time baby alone and then stranger enters
-looked at how baby responded to caregiver when returned
-when the mother is able to calm the child right away this is a sign of a secure attachment

Disney and Death Article:
Main ideas about death
under 5 they do not understand that death is final and inevitable

5-9 death is final but old people are only ones who die,

10 irreversible, permanent, inevitable
Comprehension depends on two factors
experience
*actual experiences and what they have been told

Developmental level
*comprehension abilities
Parents Role in understanding of death
parents use confusing language or not discuss it because they are trying to protect their children.

Don’t discuss b/c they think it is too frightening, unpleasant, or unnecessary

when they do explain typically confusing; instead of teaching they are trying to protect
Purpose of Disney and Death Study
how is Disney influencing the comprehension of death in children

do Disney movies portrayals of death influence children’s comprehension of death?
Disney and Death Study Design
describe and analyze the portrayal of death in animated Disney films
2 coders looked at 10 films – selected only if death occurred
-snow white, bambi, sleeping beauty, the little mermaid, beauty and the beast, the lion king, the hunchback, Hercules, mulan, tarzan

They were chosen for the death scenes and for the time period. Those earlier movies portrayed death differently than they do today.
Scene 1:
Lion King; Mufasa’s Death Scene
shown because of the severity of this death scene, the guilt that samba feels is very serious for a child to comprehend. This could also be difficult because Mufasa and Scar are brothers, a child may have a hard time understanding how one could do this to another. It is clear that Mufasa is dead. Spirit form
Scene 2:
Snow White comes alive
The intro is words explaining what the dwarves did for snow white and how she ended up in the glass coffin. Death isn’t perceived as it is now because the prince is able to kiss and wake her. If she were truly dead this of course would not be possible. Reversible, come back in same form.
Scene 3:
Beauty and the Beast
Gaston shoots the beast and inevitably due to this Gaston falls off the roof. This one was because it is just implied that Gaston is dead.
Variables in death and disney
Character Status: Protagonist – good guy, antagonist – bad guy

Depiction of death: explicit death – see it, implicit death – assume dead don’t come back, sleep death, prolonged sleep due to spell, not really dead

Death Status: Permanent/final, reversible (reversible – same form you come back from dead) or (reversible- altered you come back as a spirit)

Emotional Reaction
How characters respond to death – pos. neg. or lacking emotion

Causality:
was it an accident or on purpose, justified or unjustified
Conclusions of Death in Disney
Character status: protagonist and antagonist about equal = good and bad guys can die

Depiction of death: saw that more good guys died on screen, bad guys off screen, death of bad guys doesn’t matter

Death status: majority were permanent; only the good guys had a second chance at life in altered forms

Emotional Reactions: neg. most common for good guys; pos. emotion solely bad guys; bad guys get what they deserve
Causality: protagonist never killed on purpose, when bad guys die it was an accident, when good guys died it was intentional.
