Q

name the 5 stages of Crick & Dodge social information processing circle of explanations of peer status

A
  1. encode cues of own thoughts/others behaviour
  2. interpret cues (attribute cause, intent, evaluate goal, past performance and self/other)
  3. clarify goal
  4. review possible actions
  5. decide on action (review possible outcomes, evaluate likely action and self-efficacy)

Q

apply Crick & Dodge social information processing circle to a child in the playground wanting to play basketball

A
  1. encode codes of thought/behaviour= notice wants to paly, sees other
  2. interpret cues= see if they seem friendly and it looks easy to join
  3. clarify goal= decide to play basketball
  4. review possible actions= either directly ask, to gradually try joining in
  5. decide action= decides to ask

Q

how can Crick & Dodge social information processing circle be tested? (Dodge, 1986 gives evidence)

A

task 1, child watch video of social interaction with either (a) peer group entry, (b) peer provocation, asked questions relating to each step in SIP model
task 2 (a) child assessed on entry task (join 2 already playing)
task 2(b) peer actually provoke child
found ability on task 1a but not 1b predicted ability for 2a (to ask questions on entering peer-group actually predicted ability of entering peer group)
and also observed child in classrooms

no one right moral code but many viable alternatives

emotions are evolved over time and gives us insight into moral code using hypothalamic-limbic system

33

a better understanding of our moral judgements influences attitude towards judgements we make, allowing us to make ‘ever greater moral progress’

34
Q

name the 3 stages of moral development (Piaget)

A

premoral (0-5 yr)
moral realism (5-10 yr)
moral subjectivism (10+)

A

no understanding of moral rules

36
Q

what is the moral realism stage of 3 stages of moral development (Piaget)

A

rules come from higher authority, action evaluated on their outcome

37
Q

what is the moral subjectivism stage of 3 stages of moral development (Piaget)

A

rules can be changed by mutual consent, intention important

38
Q

name the 3 stages of Kohlberg moral development

39
Q

outline the preconventional stage of 3 stages of Kohlberg moral development

whats right is what authority figure says

40

universal moral principles that transcends law/majority view (depends on situation)

42
Q

name some criticisms of Kohlberg moral dev theory

A
  • gender bias
  • culture bias
  • can only move up through stages and not 2 stages simulatenously
  • failure to sufficiently acknowledge that children appreciate distinction between social convention from moral ones early on
43
Q

summarise the stages of moral development, as proposed by Tomasello & Vaish (interdependence hypothesis)

A

evolutionary, social interaction drive development of moral reasoning via joint, then collective intentionality
humans become ultracooperative via 2 stages of second-person morality, and agent-neutral morality

44
Q

in stages of moral development, as proposed by Tomasello & Vaish (interdependence hypothesis), define second-person morality

A

moral decisions revolve around specific others

45
Q

in stages of moral development, as proposed by Tomasello & Vaish (interdependence hypothesis), define agent-neutral morality

A

moral decisions involve following, enforcing group-wide social norm
cultural influences for expression of agent-neutral morality
collectivist and defer to majority

46
Q

stages of moral development, as proposed by Tomasello & Vaish (interdependence hypothesis), define joint intentionality

A

2 agents have joint goal and understand this goal as shared and able to engage in joint attention to coordinate with each other while each knowing own roles

47
Q

stages of moral development, as proposed by Tomasello & Vaish (interdependence hypothesis), define collective intentionality

A

moving things to group level, taking more objective, normative perspective on how things done/should be done generally within one’s culture (later to emerge developmentally)

48
Q

stages of moral development, as proposed by Tomasello & Vaish (interdependence hypothesis) - outline 2 main stages

A
  1. ecology changed meaning humans become collaborative foragers and developed joint intentionality and second-person engagement
    if don’t become interdependent and caring for social partner, not picked (social selection)
  2. interdependent collaborations resulting from constant threat, maintains group survival, interactions based on group membership, and conformity
49
Q

describe how concern for others is shown over 1 year (Zahn-Waxler, Radke-Yarrow)

A

transition from being generally upset when seeing someone in distress, to comforting others via prosocial behaviour (hugging)

50
Q

describe how concern for others is shown over 15 months, 25 months (Zahn-Waxler, Radke-Yarrow)

A

over 50% spontaneously responded to another’s distress by engaging in prosocial behaviour
25months = all bar one
with age, range of comforting behaviour increases from verbal responses, bringing blankets

51
Q

what is a common belief regarding development in prosocial behaviour in child, but what is actually seen

A

children become prosocial due to adult encouragement
however if rewarded helping decreased over time when reward taken away, compared to if no rewards (young children’s motivation to help is intrinsic)

51
Q

in first year, compare children’s behaviour toward prosocial and antisocial behaviour

A

distinguish prosocial from antisocial, prefer prosocial and more helpful to those who are helpful to them in past interaction (direct reciprocity)

52
Q

age 3 to 4, compare children’s behaviour toward prosocial and antisocial behaviour

A

develop indirect reciprocity, reducing prosocial behaviours towards individuals who intended harm

53
Q

at what age is equality/sharing shown, compare this to toddlers

A

from 8month, gives toys to parents
toddlers less willing but divides reward equitably if gained through working together

54
Q

when do children show a conception of social norm

A

toddler intervenes in situation to set right norm, even if not directly involved
enforces norms depending on group membership = by age 3, don’t view social norm solely in terms of authority but also as agent- neutral expectation

55
Q

can children understand how others feeling, when emotions not visible/infer - Vaish, Carpenter, Tomasello, detail method

A

researcher engage in activity (drawing picture)
harm cdn: tore up picture
control cdn: tore up blank paper
studied number and latency of concerned looks
later, play with balloons, researcher drops balloon and says “oh no, my balloon”
DV: comforting or helping

56
Q

can children understand how others feeling, when emotions not visible/infer - Vaish, Carpenter, Tomasello, detail results

A

children in harm condition are more likely to look at researcher quick, longer, more, and more likely to help later
conclusion, at 18months can show concern for stranger who is in a hurtful situation and not showing emotion

57
Q

name 3 ways how peers influence behaviour

A
  1. modelling behaviours for imitation

age 3, and prior to this are only responding to adult instructions
then can collaborate, act prosocially, participate in social norm to develop human moralities
