Negative: takes something away from the situation
Positive Reinforcement
Adding something to increase a behavior
ex candy when you go potty
Positive Punishment
Adding something to decrease a behavior
ex spanking when you do something bad (adding the spank to top bad behavior)
Temporary
Negative Reinforcement
Taking something away to increase a behavior
Ex take away sound of beeping car signal to increase the behavior of putting a seatbelt on
Negative punishment
Taking something away to decrease a behavior
ex taking away free time (grounding) to decrease bad behavior
Albert Bandura
*Social Learning Theory

mimicked aggressive behavior especially if reinforced
Piaget

Piaget's conservation tast
*Conservation
Increased logical thinking

Form and test Hypotheses
Mentally operate on abstract statements
Object Permanance
Object still exists even if it cannot be seen.
Infants do not have this-develops around 9 months
Egocentrism
Only see world from their perspective
ex they see the tv so they think you can see it too
Conservation
Understanding that something stays in the same quantity even if the appearance changes
Ethology
Biology, evolution, critical periods
Conrad Lorenz
John Bolby
Conrad Lorenz
*Evolutionary/sociobiological theory of development
*Imprinting-whoever the baby sees first considers that to be the mother
John Bowlby
*Evolutionary/sociobiological theory of development
Ethology applied to social development
*Attachment affects social development
Infants attachment to caregiver is a mechanism that promoted survival
Strange Situation: assessment of child's attachment
Secure Attachment
optimal, early experience of parents as trustworthy and going to be there.
Reunite by being happy, may cry a little, then venture out to play again
Insecure Anxious Resistant Attachment
Parents were inconsistent
Child isnt sure if they will come back or not
Reunite: hug then push away, unsettled
Insecure Avoidant Attachment
Been left on their own
reunite: very angry and ignore parent
Ex: genie in closet, didnt talk to her, she didnt learn to speak, missed critical period
Contextual Theories of Development
Social context is significant to understanding development
Bronfenbrenner Ecological Theory
*Contextual Theories of Development
Microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem, chronosystem
Microsystem
Child and immediate environment
Mesosystem
Links between microstystems
Parents and teachers
Exosystem
Link between microsystems, one of which the individual does not have an active role
ex: parents job may affect how they treat their child
Macrosystem
Culture in which person lives
Chronosystem
Effects of time, the degree of stability or change in a person's world
ex divorce
Qualitative Data
Interpretive, exploratory, focus groups, case studies
Quantitative Data
Objective
Utilizes scientific method
Self Report
Diaries, interviews, questionnaires
ex: mood data
Observation Data Collection
Naturalistic and Laboratory
Behavioral and Performance Measures
Testing for ADD
Case Study Research Design
in depth look at a single individual or a single program or country
Ex phinease gage
Ethnographic Study Research Design
Understand and describe the cultural process of a particular group
Rooted in anthropology, typically used to examine nonwestern cultures
Participant observation, observer bias
ex margaret mead

Dependent: outcome
Experimental and control groups
Correlational Studies
Covariation of 2 or more variables
Correlation Coefficient

Longitudinal Research Design
individuals studied over time
-pro: info about change and stability in development
-con: expensive and time consuming, participants drop out-->subject pool bias
Cross Sectional Research Design
Compare individuals in different age groups
-pro: efficient
-con: no information about how individuals change or remain the same, differences can be cofounded by cohort effects
Sequential Research Design
Combine cross sectional and longitudinal
-pro: can avoid drawbacks for both designs
-con: requires time
Can collect 4 years of data but look at 6
