In 1969, Paul Ekman argued that anger, fear, disgust, sadness, and happiness are considered primary emotions that produce innate facial expressions. He suggested that surprise, pride, and contempt should be included within the group of “basic emotions”. The innate theory was proposed by Caroll Izard’s research on young infant’s facial expressions. The experiment included in this ZAP activity asked me to choose which emotion I thought the picture provided was portraying most accurately. From my results, I can conclude that basic emotions such as happiness, surprise, and disgust are the most frequently detected.…
By the age of 4-5 years a child can usually play cooperatively and well with other children. They may also be able to sort out minor disagreements between themselves. They are able to tolerate delay for longer periods especially when this is explained to link in with routine of the day which they are now familiar with. They show concern when they can see their peers visibly upset and will try to comfort them. As language has developed they are able to express their emotions through language rather than behaviour.…
Reflecting on these arguments and our childhood relationships with our own parents can help us develop the skills needed to provide effective guidance and nurturance. The infant brain develops within an interpersonal context, where structural and functional networks are shaped by the nature and quality of early caregiver and infant interactions. Environmental influences in infancy are particularly the quality of the infant and caregiver relationship and emotional interactions with each other this context, has been appealed to shape neurological, psychological and social development and have potential long-term effects on psychological and emotional functioning. Psychoanalytic developmental theory and attachment theory is initially described by Bowlby. John Bowlby noted that the close attachment relationship between responsive caregivers and infants from about 6 months to 2 years of age.…
This research paper is written on infant and toddler development from birth to three years of age. I chose this topic to research because I am an aspiring Neonatal Intensive-Care Unit (NICU) Nurse. Neonatal nursing is a subspecialty of nursing that works with newborn infants that are born with a variety of problems right after birth (What Is Neonatal Nursing?). To successfully pursue this career, I must understand the process of birth, and how the infant develops. Pregnancy lasts for approximately 40 weeks, but it is possible to have the baby sooner or even later than the due date (Labor & Delivery, BabyCenter).…
Gearity (2005), proposed the idea that infants and their primary caregiver must accomplish two basic goals that will be the foundations for healthy relationships with others in the future; a basic sense of trust and the allowance for emotional regulation (expression of feelings etc.). When both goals…
Early interventions are an exceedingly crucial component to the education of students who have been identified as having a developmental delay. Three developmental areas are significant to know the characteristics and strategies to implement when working with students with cognitive, social-emotional, and adaptive behavior delays. These three areas can be can be harder to identify compared to a child who has delays in speech or gross motor. Cognition is difficult to describe.…
With each caregiving routines, the infant or toddler is approached with respect of recognizing them as worthy people that involves them in an educational experience with a caregiver being able to invest quality time individual for each child. The reciprocal interactions between caregivers and children interpret their communication where caregivers learn each child’s unique ways, and the children learn the caregivers’ ways of communication, which helps children’s development as a whole person. Within each principle, interactions and relationships are built as important aspects of attachment between caregivers and children for children’s healthy brain development, and children’s ability to thrive (Gonzalez-Mena, J. & Eyer, D.W.,…

Psychology Paper 2 Toddler Emotions Toddler’s emotions are the external reactions of the feelings the child is experiencing within this can expressed with many different emotions. Such as a smile showing happiness after eating in as young as first born. Scientific studies show emotions have been proven to be genetic in specific types of genes. “Researchers have found that the 7-repeat allele of the DRD4 VNTR gene, when combine with the 5-HTTLPR genotype, results in 6-months-olds who are difficult- they cry often, are hard to distract, and are slow to laugh”(Homboe et al.,2011). The parent not having the knowledge of understanding if their child does have this gene being mindful of why the feel and act certain way when they expressing emotion.…
Socioemotional development in infancy play important roles in learning to communicate with others and organize our behaviors. They use crying, smiling and other facial expressions to show emotions. Primary emotions are present in humans and other mammals and usually appear in the first 6 months such as fear, joy, sadness and excitement until they later develop self-conscious emotions like jealousy, empathy, embarrassment and shame which is more prominent after 16 months after birth. These developmental attributes could be considered present almost purely by nature, which I found is commonly observable in the adoption of dogs from birth that sometimes never even have other canines to nurture facial expression, yet they are expressed and we can…
A). Emotional regulation is a process through which emotions are monitored, appraised, and modified in relation to goals (Gross, 381). Emotions that are regulated can either be positive or negative, such as joy, pleasure, distress, anger and fear (Gross, 314). Parents contribute heavily to emotional regulation as for example, they try to change the infant’s emotions and behaviors by controlling their temper tantrum or by teaching a child how to behave appropriately in different types of settings. Self-regulation during the first three years of life develops as the child learns appropriate reactions to different situations and also is based on the development of language skills and memory.…
Attachment is known as a deep social-emotional bond established between a child and his or her primary caretaker, such as a mother, father, or grandparent (Kail, 2012, p 331). The process of attachment development starts from birth to six to eight weeks as an infant and is known as preattachment. This is where the infant can recognize their mother from smell and sound. This is the first step in forming an attachment by the infants’ behaviors and their responses they evoke in adults create an interactive system (Kail, 2012, p 332). The second stage is between six and eight weeks to six and eight months, this is where the infants’ attachment is in the making.…
