Q

Early Influences pair inheritance

Sex link Heredity

Polygenic

Phenotype

Genotype

A
  1. single pair inheritance
    • 2 recessive genes or 1Recessive& 1 Dominant
  2. sex link inheritance influence by the gene of one sex (often X chromosomes)
  3. Polygenic inheritance-influenced by multiple genes (height, weight, hair color, intelligence, susceptibility to cancer
  4. Phenotype-observed (hair color, eye color) due to genetic & environment
  5. Genotype-genetic inheritance (height)

Q

Role of Environment

Critical Period vs Sensitive Period

A
  • critical-limited time when exposure must happen in order to develop
    • first 8 weeks gestation–vital organs..if they do not develop then they will not develop
    • ducks imprinting first 15 hours critical
  • sensitive period-longer than critical-time is optimal not necessary

Q

Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological theory

A
  • Microsystem -child’s immediate environment (parent, siblings, friends)
  • mesosystem-interactions w/childs microsystem (school, neighborhood watch, parent-teacher
  • Exosystem-affect child immediate environment (extended family, stressed parent from work takes out on kid)
  • Macrosystem-social&cultural environments-cultural practices, political ideologies, religion, values
  • chronosystem-persons lifespan, impacts development and character (chronological-passsage of time)

  • prefrontal cortex-planning, decisions & impulse control
  • since these develop at different times teens may do things based on emotion/pleasure vs rationalization/thinking taking more impulsive and risk-taking behaviors
  • ↑ likelihood of substance abuse
  • effects of alcohol and substance ↑ 4 teens than for those who started later adolescence/early adulthood greater risk substance disorder
