Q

Define 1. Neurulation:

Prenatal state/Embryonic period.

A
  • Till the 8 week
  • Neurol plate gets devloped trough out thicking event of cells
  • Trough out folding of the neurol plate forms the neuron groove develops (20 days)
  • Trough out closed folding the neurol tube is devloped
  • Neurol tube is the beginning of CNS
  • > First brain tissue

Define 2. Neurogenesis:

Prenatal state

A

Means: production of new cells

Q

Define 4. Differentiation:

A
  • The Transformation of first (precursor) cells into distinctive types of neurons and ganglia cells
  • Express leads to diffrentiation beacuse it builds proteins which makes neurons individual
  • local environment also influences nerve cell differentiation
  • Is depending on destination in the body

Q

Define: Cell cell interactions (part of differentitation)

A
  • one cell affects the differention of other neighbor cells

Q

Define: cell-autonomous (part of differentiation)

Q

Define: Synaptic pruning (cell death) Why and what happens?

A

Loss of synapses
Why because of
1. compettition
2. elimination (to much growth) sculp break
3. Strengthening others synapses
- Release of calcium ions that cause the mitochondria inside the cell to release a protein called Dyablo which causes death

Q

Define Synapse rearrangement: (What and why ):

A
  • development of other Synapses
  • why: to build a stronger relation in areas which are useful
  • Developing new strong synpases by training ur brain trough out tasks (neurol activity)

Q

Define 7. Myelination: (White matter)

A

Myelination has strong impact on behavior because it allows large networks of cells to communicate rapidly

  • Jumps over mylein sheets
  • Repeated wrapping of cytoplasm around Schwann on axon

Q

What does Plasticity:

A
  • If u train one part of yourn brain then it can dvelope more.

Q

Why do adolescents take differnt rsik in comparison to adults?

A

Adolescents take more risk decisions than adults even though they have the same basic reasoning and information processing skills

-Affective pathways (limbic system) develops ealry in adolsence (Sensation seeking)
Hot irrational
- Cognitive pathway (prefrontal coretx) late devlopemnt devlops later (self regulation)
Cold and rational

  • Results; Due to diffrent devlopemntal stages the limbic system is stronger and conrols behavior

Q

Name the strength and weaknesses of Interviews:

A

1.Structured interviews
- All participants are asked the same questions
2.Clinical interview
- Procedure in which questions are adjusted in accord with answer the interviewee provides.
Pro: Quick and a lot informations beacuse parents report the questionar
Con: Answers can be biased, memorries are often inaccurate (parents) mum wants to put the child in a goof light
- Also researcher bias on questions and interpretation

Q

What is an naturalistic observation ?

A

Examination of ongoing behavior in an environment not controlled by the researcher.
Pro: Useful for describing behavior in everyday settings/ consequences in behavior
Con: Hard to know most influential aspects of situations (Cause and effect) and also the participants reactivity on observer is (bias)
- Little or no control of variables

Q

What is an structured observation ?

A

Involves presenting an identical situation to each child and recording the child’s behavior (u allready expect a particular behavior )
Pro: (More control) over certain conditions
Cons: Context is less natural (not real life)

21
Q

What is a crosssectional design ?

A
  • children of different ages are compared on a given behavior or characteristic over a short period
  • Same characteristic but different age
  • Pro Quick and easy to administer
  • Con: Uninformative about stability of individual differences over time
  • confounding variables in social enviomrent changes personal behavior which can not be identfied as an exaption
22
Q

What is an longitudinal design?

A

Method of study in which the same children are studied twice or more over long time.
Pro: Indicates degree of stability of individual differences over long periods
Con: Difficult to keep all participants in study
time investment
- Also learning effects on tasks

23
Q

What is an sequential design ?

A

Combination of longitudinal and cross-sectional approaches

- same issues on longitudinal

24
Q

What is an correlational Design ?

A
  • Just let things happen
    Pro: do not manipulate behavior
    Con: Can not determine cause and effect relationships
25
Q

What is an experimental Design?

A

Pro: Can find out cause and effect relationshps
Con: May not reveal real life behavior
- Experiment setting

26
Q

What does an functional MRi show ?

A

Extancion of structional MRI

- Activation paterns in the brain during different activities are sown (report oxygn developemnt)

27
Q

what does an EEG record ?

A

Record electrical activity on the surface of the sculp and see changes over time. How does the electrical activity develop ?

28
Q

What is an field experiment?

A

Form of correlational design but more specific filed setting
Pro: observerd in a natural setting also can find out cause and effect
Con: Less control (natural)

29
Q

What is an quasi experiment ?

A
  • Is done when the independent variable can not be designed to a group !
    Pro: Takes advantage of natural seperation of childreen (kids have phones and do not)
    Con: Other factors influence the study such as parent style or money
30
Q

Single case study

A
  • Just a study where no contol group is given

- single study of group or indvidual

31
Q

Grey matter

A

Are cell bodies

- Decreases over time regarding volume

32
Q

White matter

A

Are = meylinated axons

  • serve as connections
  • increases then decreases regarding volume
33
Q

Name the change in network between infants and adults:

A

More mixed brain activity in infants

and more local/focal activity in network during adult.

34

After birth
- functional and cognitive devlopment
Everything besides neurolation

36

37
Q

Name the embryonic stage :

A
  • Embryo
  • 2-8 weeks
    Diffrentiation of organs and body system
    is possible
  • Abnormalities 2-6 weeks most dangerous period
38
Q

Name the Fetal period:

A
  • week 8- birth

- Foetus

39
Q

Name the danger of alcohol:

A

Glial cells are get detsroeyed so many neuros do not arive at there final destination

40
Q

What is the limbic system devided in:

A
  • Nucleus accumbens
    risk taking reward seeking !!
  • Amygalda less efficient to hide (emotions)
  • prefrontal cortex (control of behavior)
41
Q

What is a Meta-analytic studie ?

A
  • pools in research wich allready has been done (so lot of context)
    But you have to be careful about mathematic computation and it is most likly that varaibales have been diffrently defined in preverious research
42
Q

What does a Structural MRI do ?

A

Looks at the devlopment of white and grey matter on diffrent regions and are compared over subjects

43
Q

Frontal lobe

A

motor cortex,

“higher order functions” such as planing

44
Q

Temporal Lobe

A

language and auditry

45
Q

Parietal lobe

A

spatial function ( where is the object )

46
Q

Occipital lobe

A

vision

47
Q

Development of the brain

A

From occipital towards frontal lobe

48
Q

3 Stages in prenatal developemnt

A 
1. Germinal Stage
Zygote
2. Embryonic period
Embryo (first 10 weeks)
- first ten weeks
3. Fetal period
Foetus 
- 11 to 28 weeks
49
Q

Important dates in devlopmental stage:

A
  • 24 week earliest myelination
  • 12 hrs cell being divided
  • 1 week 3 distinct layers ectoderm/mesoderm/endoderm
  • 9 weeks all internal organs are present
