Perfectly

It is a substage of sensorimotor in which babies learn to repeat purposely a pleasant bodily sensation first achieved by chance

Second Substage -(Primary Circular Reactions)

How well did you know this?

Not at all

Perfectly

A substage of sensorimotor is when babies coincide with a new interest in manipulating objects and learning about their properties
-Babies intentionally repeat an action not merely for its own sake, as in the second substage, but to get results beyond the infant’s own body

Third Substage - (Secondary Circular Reactions)

Perfectly

a baby this substage of sensorimotor might repeatedly shake a rattle to hear the noise.

Third Substage - (Secondary Circular Reactions)

How well did you know this?

Not at all

Perfectly

A substage of sensorimotor is when babies have learned to generalize from experience to solve new problems

Coordination of Secondary Schemes

A substage of sensorimotor is when babies modify and coordinate previous schemes, such as the schemes for crawling, pushing, and grabbing, to find one that works

Fourth Substage - (Coordination of Secondary Schemes)

A substage of sensorimotor is when babies begin to experiment with new behavior to see what will happen.

Fifth Substage (Tertiary circular reactions)

This substage of sensorimotor marks the development of complex, goal-directed behavior

Fourth Substage - (Coordination of Secondary Schemes)

- varying an action to get a similar result, rather than merely repeating pleasing behavior they have accidentally discovered.

Fifth Substage (Tertiary circular reactions)

A toddler may squeeze a rübber duck that squeaked when stepped on, to see whether it will squeak again By trial and error, they try behaviors until they find the best way to attain a goal.

Fifth Substage (Tertiary circular reactions)

A substage of sensorimotor in which a transition to the preoperational stage of early childhood— may idea na sa consequence na gagawin nila

Sixth Substage - (Mental Combinations)

the ability to mentally represent objects and actions in memory, largely through symbols such as words, numbers, and mental pictures that frees toddlers from immediate experience

Representational Ability

____is the reproduction of an observed behavior with time. According to Piaget, infants can't do this because their Long-term memory is not yet developed

Deferred Imitation

Piaget believed that children under______months could not engage in deferred imitation, a more complex ability requiring long-term memory

the realization that something continues to exist when out of sight.

Object Permanence

A process in which much of the knowledge people acquire about their world is gained through symbols, and intentional representations of reality.

Symbolic Development

the ability to understand the nature of pictures—not real but they represent something. Kapag naintindihan ng bata na yung drawing is aso pero alam nya na di talaga yon aso, that is symbolic development, alam nila yung symbols sa reality

Pictorial Competence

a momentary misperception of infants to the relative sizes of objects

Scale error

The proposal that children under age 3 have difficulty grasping spatial relationships because of the need to keep more than one mental representation in mind at the same time

Dual Representation Hypothesis

The ability to recognize perceptual categories

Categorization:

The early awareness of specific events in the physical world but general

Causality

5 month infants may recognize and mentally manipulate the numbers but the interpretation of findings dispute

Number

They analyze the separate parts of a complex task to figure out what abilities are necessary for each part of the task and at what age these abilities develop.

Information-processing researchers

It measures and draws inferences from, what infants pay attention to and for how long

Information Processing

This term is under information processing where infants Increase in responsiveness after the presentation of a new stimulus

Dishabituation

A baby who has been sucking typically stops or sucks less vigorously when a stimulus is first presented to pay attention to the stimulus is an example?

Dishabituation

Liking to look at new things and habituating to them quickly correlates with later signs of ________

cognitive development

_______and other information-processing abilities show promise as predictors of intelligence

Speed of Habituation

This approach are looking at speed not the quality, mas mabilis iprocess ng bata yung info, mas matalino

information processing approach

Tendency of infants to spend more time looking at one sight than another

Visual Preference

A tool for infant research in information processing approach that looks for the ability to distinguish a familiar visual stimulus from an unfamiliar one when shown both at the same time

Visual Recognition Memory

The ability of an infants to use information gained by one sense to guide another

Cross-modal Transfer

This term pertains to the amount of time infants typically gaze at a new sight increases

Attention

A shared attentional focus, typically initiated with eye gaze or pointing develops between 10-12 months when babies follow an adults' gaze by looking or pointing in the same direction—

Joint attention

Dividing the world into meaningful categories is vital to thinking about objects or concepts and their relationships

Categorization

____has been linked to infants' ability to predict the goal of other people's intentional failed actions (such as trying, but failing, to reach an object) Alam ng bata yung concept ng goal kaya kapag may nadapa na matanda natatawa sila. Parang na dishabituate at di nangyari yung prediction kaya funny for them. Children are not dumb

Self-locomotion

infants understood object permanence but could not demonstrate this knowledge with motor activity. This is according to _____

Information processing approach

A research method in which dishabituation to a stimulus that conflicts with experience is taken as evidence that an infant recognizes the new stimulus as surprising

Violation-of-expectations

In information processing approach, it is the ability of an infant in keeping track of small numbers of individual objects.

detailed number

In the information processing approach, this the ability of an infant in which they can represent large numbers of approximate

estimation

An approach examines the hardware of the central nervous system to identify what brain structures are involved in specific areas of cognition.

COGNITIVE AND NEUROSCIENCE APPROACH

A period of rapid growth and development which coincide with changes in cognitive behavior

Brain growth spurts

It provides physical evidence of the location of two separate long-term memory systems--implicit and explicit -that acquire and store different kinds of information and mature at different rates

brain scans

What is the other term for implicit memories?

procedural memories

What is the other term for explicit memories?

declarative memories

It is unconscious recall, generally of habits and skills;

implicit memories

A type of memory that seems to develop early and is demonstrated by such actions as an infant's kicking on seeing a familiar mobile. Ex. Paano maglakad, pano sumuntok, paano mag crawl, tumayo—-unang nadedevelop

implicit memories ( procedural memories)

A type of memory that is conscious or intentional recollection, usually of facts, names, events, or other things that can be stated or declared–verbal

explicit memories (declarative memories)

A type of memory that develops later and it will develop better when an infant can talk

explicit memories (declarative memories

In early infancy, when the structures responsible for memory storage are not fully _____, memories are relativefleeting

formed
