Prelinguistic features

A

period prior to age 1 (or b4 first word)
1. sensitive to sentence boundaries
2. Early sounds
- cooing (2 months) - 1 syllable vowel sounds
- babbling (4-6 months) - includes sounds that will be used in speach
- canonical, reduplicated babbling (6mo) - string of identical sounds - similar across cultures
- babbling drift: end of first year, drift to languages they hear, diff sounds used in language, match to intonation to their lang.
Pragmatics: turn taking around 7 - 8 months, due to reciprocal relationships

Q

Problem of Reference

A

Word learning assumptions and constraints

  1. Whole object assumption
  2. Mutual exclusivity constraints (obj have one name)
    - doesn’t work across languages
  3. Lexical contrast constraint (inferences ab the meaning of a word made by contrasting the novel word w known ones)
  4. Syntactical cues - infer semantics by observing used
    - 2 yr old will grasp this
    - called syntactical bootstrapping
  5. Parental Modelling (children learn words b4 their super or subordinate categories bc thats how they’re used by their family)
  6. Social Cognitive factors
    - Parents label objects kids pay attention to
    - Theory of mind - useful asa children understands what parents point to inteltionally

Q

Preschool period (2.5 - 5 yrs)

A
  • Increased complexity - master basic morphology and syntax
  • still make types of errors
    1. Over regularizations - over generalizing gram rules to instances they dont apply (ex banned)
    2. Transformational rules - 2.5-3yrs, children learn to shift declarative statements to questions or otherwise
  • can be slow to learn, 5 yr old will still make erros
  • by 5/6, similar to adult language use

~60% of the pop.

67
Q

Characteristics of type A attachment, prevalence

  • Controlling types: dev around preschool to prevent the kid feeling fear towards the caregiver by removing parental control, used to intimidate the parent
  • Behaviourally disorganized (textbook)
72
Q

C-Caregiving and C-Punitive Char.

A

Caregiving: excessive pleasure at reuinion w caregiver, often depressed mothers who have recently experienced loss. Kids are at risk for developing mood disorders, more likely to be victims of IPV
Punitive: Demonstrate hostility, impatience towards parent
Will give orders and blatantly ignore the parents
Extreme disinhibition of behaviours

73
Q

Mary Main’s hypothesis

A

language, once developed is a better measure than just observing behaviours
But… must use measures that surprise the unconscious to elicit true mental reps of attachment

differentiation - ‘they’ are…

Recognition - “I am this and that…”

82
Q

Self Differentiation in Infancy

Lewis et al.

A
  • self diff from env ~ 2-3 months
    1) Become acquainted w physical abilities, excersise reflexive abilities
    2) personal agency - understanding of ones own volitional impact
  • Lewis: children are happy when in control, loss of control yields negative response
83
Q

Self Recognition in Infancy

A

begin to learn who they are
Self rec as the ability to rec ones self in the mirror

  • Rouge test - red on nose… Results
    a) 9 months dont wipe
    b) 15-18 some kids wipe
    c) 18-24 majority will wipe - emergence of self recognition

  1. Joy in mastery
    a) prior to 2, pleased w the dev of competency, no seeking evaluations from others or use of objective standards
  2. Approval seeking
    b) around 2 yrs, kids anticipate how others will evaluate their performances
  3. Use of standards
    c) around 3 years, internalize standards, experience pride, pleasure, shame
89
Q

Achievement motivaation in middle childhood

(McCleland, Atkinson, Clark and Lowell

A

4 ambiguous photos, asked to write stories ab them
- Assume ppl project their own motives into the stories
- Count the # of achievement related themes
- Those who included more ach. related themes do better in school
, so Am importance in school

90
Q

Home influences on Achievement motivation
(Doornick, Caldwell , Wright and Frankenberg)
(Li)

A

  2. Home environment
    - Rank env as stimulating or unstimulating

    b) Strong willingness to seek and master challenges
    c) Joy of Learning, not external reinforcement
  3. Parental style

    - 4-6 yr old cross cultural (china v us) study
    - 2 stories, characters fail at a task
    - use are less critical of learning failures
91
Q

Weiners model of self attributions

A

UNDERSTAND

92
Q

Dwek’s improvements on Weiner

A

a) mastery orientation - success attributed to internal causes (effort and ability)
b) learned helplessness - success att to unstable, external cause (luck), failure to stable internal (ability)

93
Q

Dervelopment of Learned helplessness

Dwek rd 2

A

teachers and parents play a major role
5th graders competency on an unfamiliar task
- LH = praise eff when successful, crit. lack of ability when fail
- Mastery orientation = praise effort for success, lack of effort when fail
- Kids who received the LH prod = increased likeliness to attribute failure to lack of ability,
- mastery prod= to lack of effort

94
Q

Interventions for Learned Helplessness

-model and applications

A

Attribution training: Train kids to att failures to unstable, external cues (luck)

a) success only - complete problems they can solve, receive tokes for solves
b) Attribution training - didnt work fast enough, you should try harder
- type b) = percervere in the face of failure
a) get hangup on failures

95
Q

Influence of the Types of praise (dichotomy)

A
  • Person (ie, youre smart) - focus on performance goals (I need a 90)
  • Process (ie youre a hard worker) - focus on learning goals
96
Q

Verbal paradigms for prod self into the fut.

A

Asking kids ab the future

Busby and Suddendorf - 4-5 yrs = accurate assessment, 2s dont (as measured by parents)

97
Q

Anticipating future physiological states - Atance 1 and 2

A
  • Atance, Melzoff
  • images of a geo-location and objects, choose which one is preferred for the area
    Inmcreases with age
