If infant is malnourished what happens in brain
Will have lower development in skills associated ex. language, reading
Pruning
Decrease in dendrites, they die off
purpose- to isolate pathways for more efficient functioning
Experience Expectant
Experience Expectant- Infant's brain expects to develop. Ex. Infants expect nurturing language
Experience Dependent
Individualized experience that brain doesn't expect
-variable experiences from culture to culture, fam to fam
-guitar..
Senses, Early infancy
sensation is primary and perception comes later, all senses function at birth
Vision
3 wks- vision is 2600, can see 6-12 in
6 mnths- 20/20, binocular vision
Hearing
in-vitro, very good at birth, within 2 weeks turn head to familiar sounds
Tasting
rapid, immediately adapting
Reflexes
Breathing, eye blink, rooting, sucking, swallowing, stepping, Babinski, grasping, moro
Rooting Reflex
turn head to whatever touches cheek
Babinski
fanning of feet when stroked
Stepping
held upright, with feet touching flat surface, they move legs
Swimming
when they lay on their stomachs, stretch out arms and legs
palmar grasping
grasp what touches palm
moro
when something startles them, perhaps banging, infants fling their arms outward and bring them back together on chest
Gross motor skills
physical movement of arms, torso, legs
crawl- 6-8 months
walk 8-14 months
jumping 1.5 years (18 mnths)
fine motor skills
small body movements- drawing, picking small objects up
4 months
Cognitive- Piaget's Stage Theory/Info. processing theory
Primary circular reactions- infants responding to own body
Piaget Stage 1
0-1 Month- Reflexes suck, grasp, staring, listening
Piaget Stage 2
1-4 months- assimilation and accomadation
Assimiliation
using/engaging in environment in way that they use things in environment that they already know.. hand to mouth with everything
Accomadation
breast to bottle..
learn to accomadate by changing way they interact with environment
response to purpose of object
2ndary circular reaction
Stages 3 and 4, involving baby reacting with other people/objects
Piaget 4-8 months
awareness of things, respond to people/objects, emotional reaction, approach objects/people, babbling
Piaget 8-12 months
adapt more, anticipate things, predict, increase actions
Tertiary Circular Reactions, 12-18 months
1 year old take 1st independent and varied actions, exploration, experimentation, testing parents, building stuff, getting in trouble, autonomous/autonomy
psychosocial 18-24 months
mental combinations, starting to understand, consequences to actions, don't rely as much on trial and error (hide stuff), questions, putting sentences together
Habituation vs. Piaget
memory in infants is solid in habituation, getting used to objects use, scientists see memory as long as 6 wks old, Piaget only had 3 study cases
Info processing theory vs. Piaget
based on how we store, categorize, and expel info, believe intellectual capacity, concepts and categories develop by 6 months, identify concepts
Affordance
stimuli in environment that allow for response. using pencil-afforded experience, door handle, infants develop cognitively through affordance of experiences, also dev. individual differences
Infant Remembers best under 3 circumstances
1. environmental conditions are real life experiences
2. motivation is high
3. Caregivers provide memory aides, corrections, positive/negative instance
Language development universal
prior to 6 months, infants can mimic all sounds
Communication Neonates
through reflexes
talk 2-6 months
both cooing, crying, moving into squeaks and growls
talk 6 months
cooing more frequent, more noises
talk 6-10 months
babbling, 1 syllable repeated over/over, vowel w/ simple consonant "ba"

Chomsky- even deaf children babble in sign language
talk 10-12 months
greater comprehension of more complex words, more receptive language
talk 10-14 months
1 word utterances
talk 13-18 months
increase in word development, 50 words to 100 words per month
talk 21 months
2 words utterances
Talking 24 months
telegraphic speech, basic sentences 3 or 4 words. Genetic component: correct grammar based on hearing patterns, but Chomsky says we are genetically programmed to have correct grammar
Skinner behavioral theory (behaviorist)
language is reinforced so there is increased language behavior
-frequent repetition increase language dev.
-well taught infants, well spoken children
Naom Chomsky-Heritability theory
infants teach themselves, language is innate and they don't need to be taught
Difference between language and communication
language has deep structure: idioms not as literal as communicating something
Chomsky heridity language acquisition device
in brain to learn grammar and vocab
Social Impulse Theory
social pragmatic theory- believe we acquire lang because we are social beings, because interact w/ other language users
Baby emotions
distress, comfort/contentment
emotions 6 weeks
anger (distress becomes anger), frowning eyebrows universal across cultures, distress, comfort
emotions 8-9 months
fear, anger, distress, comfort

Theories of emotions/psychosocial development: Freud's Stages of Psychosocial Development- Oral

+/- consequences of behavior is result of actions, social interactions and observations of others (social learning)
Behaviorism, Temperament Drome Cagen
-longitudinal study, temperament-innate characteristic over time.
Affordances- Gibson's information processing theory
perception is not automatic, affordance- opportunity for perception and interaction that is offered by a person, place or object in the environment.
