Q

Emil Kraeplin

A

(1856-1926): classified schizophrenia as a physical disease, that would establish biological identity for mental illness. Differentiated dementia praecox (schizophrenia) from manic-depression, based on age of onset, fam hx, and disease course. Also noted negative sx and cognitive dysfunction as strongest determinants of impairment, treatment resistance, and prognosis.

The correlation coefficient

A

sa measurement of the direction and strength of the relationship between two variables.

A negative value means that one moves the other in the opposite direction.

A correlation close to −1 or +1 shows a strong relationship. A correlation close to 0 shows a weak relationship.

Piaget stages of development

A

Sensorimotor (up to 2)
Preoperational (2-7)
Concrete operational (7-11)
Formal operational (12+)

430
Q

Sensorimotor (age, major development/approach)

A

up to 2 yrs:

learning object permanance

Know the world through movements and sensations

Learn about the world through basic actions such as sucking, grasping, looking, and listening

Learn that things continue to exist even when they cannot be seen (object permanence)

Realize that they are separate beings from the people and objects around them

Realize that their actions can cause things to happen in the world around them

Piaget believed that developing object permanence or object constancy, the understanding that objects continue to exist even when they cannot be seen, was an important element at this point of development.

431
Q

Preoperational

A

2-7: symbolic play

think symbolically and learn to use words and pictures to represent objects

Egocentric and struggle to see things from the perspective of others

Getting better with language and thinking, but still concrete terms

Children become much more skilled at pretend play during this stage of development, yet they continue to think very concretely about the world around them. 

432
Q

Concrete operational

A

7-11: conservation

Begin to think logically about concrete events

Begin to understand the concept of conservation

Thinking becomes more logical and organized, but still very concrete

Thinking is still rigid. Struggle with abstract and hypothetical concepts.

Less egocentric and begin to think about how other people might think and feel. Begin to understand that their thoughts are unique to them and that not everyone else necessarily shares their thoughts, feelings, and opinions (theory of mind).

433
Q

Formal Operational

A

12+:

Begins to think abstractly and reason about hypothetical problems

Begins to think more about moral, philosophical, ethical, social, and political issues that require theoretical and abstract reasoning

Begins to use deductive logic, or reasoning from a general principle to specific information

434
Q

Types of Play in (Piaget preoperational stage)

A

Parallel: usually around 2years old, play with similar things near each other.

Associative: 3 y.o. share same toys but play separately. Play begins to overlap

Cooperative: around 4 y.o. Play with toys and interact together

435
Q

Margaret Mahler:

A

Psychoanalytic observation of children b/w 6 mo and 3 yrs.

Autistic phase - first 3 weeks, separation and self absorption. Mostly sleeping

Symbiotic phase: until 5 months recognizes caregiver, but lacks sense of individuality.

Separation-individiation (3 stages)

  1. Hatching: increased interest in outside world
  2. Practicing (9-16 months: physical ability to separate from caregiver
  3. Rapprochement (15-24 months): infant explores outside world but requires mother to be present for emotional support of completing the task.
  4. Object constancy: (24+ months) the development of an internalized mental model of the mother, which unconsciously accompanies and supports the child even when they are physically separated. In addition, a sense of individuality begins to develop. The degree of ambivalence in the internalized model implicates the formation of a healthy self concept and self-confidence.
436
