Stranger anxiety is the fear of strangers that infants display. Both stranger anxiety and object permanence may emerge at the same time because kids are able to remember and build schemas. 1d. The rouge test is an method where test for self-recognition. The person testing this will put rouge make-up on an infant’s nose and then place them in front of a mirror.
The two learning theories of attachment are operant and classical conditioning. An example of classical conditioning is, when a baby cries it is a negative thing for the mum, so the mum feeds/cuddles it which comforts the baby. The mother and baby form a bon because the baby is comforted and therefore has stopped crying which is a positive thing for the mum. By doing this it is really easy for the baby to manipulate the situation and the mum. In this example, food is the unconditioned stimulus and pleasure is the unconditioned response.
They cry to communicate and parents will start to recognise the different types of cries. Examples of what you may observe: Physical: babies look less curled up and startle less Cognitive: Babies stop crying because they hear a familiar voice Communication: Babies coo when contented Social, emotional and behavioural: Fleeting smiles when asleep. Babies at 3months: Babies from 3months will have grown in height and weight and some will have learnt the difference between day and night, and are able to sleep throughout the night. They are less
The major areas of development include biological, cognitive and social and emotional development. Both of these psychologists were concerned with the study of understanding the area of cognitive development specifically in children and were considered to be constructivists. Constructivism is the theory in which “learners actively construct their own knowledge based upon the things they know now and have known in the past” (TFL resources, 2006). This essay will seek to compare and contrast the theories of psychologists Piaget and Vygotsky and will critically look at their theories to judge which aspects are appropriate for the long term. Jean Piaget focused his research on studying children and observing their thought processes.
Bowlby put forward the principle of monotropy, believing that the infant displays a strong innate tendency to form an attachment with one significant person, not necessarily, but usually the mother. (Gross, R. 2005). This was criticised by Rutter (1981), who claimed that the mother is not special in the way that the infant shows its attachment, as children will show a whole range of attachment behaviours towards a variety of people. Bowlby (1969), cited in Martin et al 2007 p. 546) claimed that the most important attachment behaviours are sucking, cuddling, looking, smiling and crying. According to Freud the newborn infant lives in a solipsistic world of ‘primary narcissism’ and experiences a build-up of tension with the need to suck the breast as an expression of his infantile sexuality.
Weakness - the factors given by researchers, such as the ones stated, are only assumptions with no scientific evidence. Weakness - the research over exaggerates how bad memory is. This could be due to the fact that it is being studied in lab conditions and only the short term effects of memory and eye witness testimony are being taken into
Running head: Personality Theories Personality Theories PSY/211 Personality Theories The existence of personality theories correspond to how scholars analyze and assess the development of human identity and behavior. Each viewpoint provides a specific understanding of what cultivates personality and the corresponding factors that influence such behavior. One way to analyze personality is through the lens of psychoanalytic theory. The main argument of this theory is that problems or issues pertaining to psychology can be rooted to one’s unconscious (McLeod, 2007). Specifically, the problems are influenced by latent issues surfacing in the conscious mind.
Our scale only measures to grams accurately, and could have not accurately represented the .68g of CaCO3, or we could have lost the solid precipitate in the process of the experiment. These errors could be reduced with a more accurate scale, as well as more experienced hands performing the procedure, or skilled hands, ie: we are novices at this lab, and training could produce more accurate
CYP core 3.1 LO 2.3 Explain how theories of development and frameworks to support development influence current practice. We have different types of theories of development to monitor a child's development process. It can help recognise any problems that arise whether it is physical, social, language, emotional or intellectual development. It also shows reasons to children’s behaviour and how not only internal, but external factors can affect development. Theories of development.
P1 – explain the principal physiological perspectives There are different physiological perspectives which relates to the normal functioning of a human being. Some of the perspectives I will be talking about are Cognitive, Biological, Social learning, Humanistic, Psychodynamic and Behaviourists. Cognitive/information processing perspective – This perspective understands the way in which we process information, the internal process of their mind. This theory talks about the way that perception, attention, memory, language and thinking in humans, human intelligence and thinking and problem solving. This theory is discovering ways to learn more about the processes that underlie our ability to represent information about the world in memory, how language works and how we solve problems and also how we learn things.
