A

Cerebral Cortex becomes functional bringing cognitive perceptions into play
Frontal Lobes begin to interact with the Limbic System, the seat of emotional reactions, Limbic Structures (Hippocampus) become larger and more adultlike
Myelination of the Frontal Lobes leads to changes in an infant’s self-awareness, self-conscious emotions, and a greater capacity for regulating emotions and activities
Hormonal changes in the autonomic (Involuntary) Nervous Systems coincide with the emergence of evaluative emotions

Q

What was Harry Harlow’s Experiment?

A

The Cloth/Wire Mother Experiment. Infant monkeys were put into cages with one of two kinds of surrogate “mothers”: a plain cylindrical wire-mesh form or a form covered with terry cloth. Some were fed from wire mothers and the terry cloth mothers. When allowed time to spend with mothers, they spent time with cloth surrogates. Findings were that feeding is not the only important thing babies get from mothers. Close body contact gives comfort.
