Q

Evocative genetic-environmental correlation

A

Inborn tendencies that are expressed and responded to by the social environment might be reinforced, creating a circuit where the tendency is strengthened and the genetic predisposition is magnified.

Q

Active genetic-environmental correlation

A

Genetic predispositions encourage us to seek out environments in which these predispositions are valuable. People with aggressive predispositions tend to sign up for martial arts classes instead of chess. This niche picking magnifies the genetic predisposition.

Q

Sensomotoric stage 0-2 years

A

Children explore their surroundings using their physical abilities. They may crawl around, put things in their mouth, and use haptic perception to learn about their reality. But a notion of object permanence emerges during this stage.

The physical movements become goal-oriented.
This stage is sublined by 6 undercategories.

58
Q

Piaget’s constructivism

A

Children all develop through the same stages at around the same age and in one sequence.

Criticized because it neglects social-cultural factors affecting cognitive development.

Overestimates adolescent abilities and underestimates infants’ abilities.

59
Q

Vygotsky’s social cognitive development

A

All learning and ideas originate from social interaction with our surroundings.

Criticized for being too general, and not being able to make any predictions. Also a lack of clarity regarding physical, social and emotional competence affect the development. What if someone is physically impaired or mentally impaired or has suffered traumas, how does this affect?

A

A sudden, biologically primed attachment that happens early on.

79
Q

Attachment

A

The emotional bond between child and primary caregivers.

80
Q

A

Child explores surroundings when caregiver is present. Returns to caregiver as a secure base. Some crying might happen at separation, but is quickly comforted upon reunion.

81
Q

Insecure resistant

A

May show signs of demanding attention yet rejecting approaches by the caregiver. Angry at caregiver when they leave yet reluctant to be comforted upon reunion.

82

83
Q

Disorganized attachment

A

Inconsistent and disorganized behavior exhibited by the child. A lot of freezing and inability to cope with situations. Arises from abuse and lack of reliability from caregivers.

84
Q

86
Q

Prelinguistic language

A

Vocalizations, yelling, babbling, gestures, pointing, crying

87
Q

Non-discrimination of sounds from different languages

A

Between 0-12 infants do not discriminate between different languages and are able to detect sounds from any language. After this period children build a preference and start to only identify their mother tongue.

88
Q

Categorical speech perception

A

After 6-8 months a discrimination of sounds that do not to the mother tongue stops.

89
Q

Child-directed Speech CDS: Motherese, Babytalk

A

High-pitched talk, short words, simple words, lots of mimicking the child and overarticulating words

90
Q

Comprehensive input(CI)

A

Type of language that is able to be understood by child. Between 6 months and 4 years it is suitable to use CI.

Between 6 months and 18 months CI is optimal.

Until 5 years of age there is a critical period in which we need CI to develop language. After 5 years of age the benefit of CI is limited and so are the possibilites of developing functional speech.

91
Q

Joint attention

A

The child and parent are both directing attention at same object.

Very important for language development. This is what enables functional speech later on.

92
Q

Protodeclarative gestures

A

Gestures that are used to make the adult direct attention at something that infant wants them to attend to. Also used to comment or remark on something.

93
Q

Protoimperative gestures

A

Gestures used to make the adult do something. eg. pointing at a ball or toy so that the adult gives it to the infant.

94
Q

First word

A

12 months, between 9-18 months is typical development.

Concrete objects, nouns
Simple actions, verbs
Simple descriptions, adjectives2

95
Q

Fast-mapping

A

The ability to connect a word to an underlying concept after only a few coincidences or encoding moments.

96
Q

Turnabout

A

Taking turns, and adding something to the conversation.

97
Q

Shading

A

Gradual and smooth transition to new subjects, not abrupt switching.

98
Q

Illocutionary intent

A

What is actually meant by what is said? Reading between the lines.

99
Q

Behaviorism’s take on language

A

A matter of reinforcing correct language use. All words are supposedly learnt by child saying something and then receiving reinforcement from parent or surroundings. Incorrect language is extinguished by lack of reward or reinforcement.

Imitation - child speaks as is spoken in surroundings.

100
Q

Critique against behaviorism

A

10 000 words in only a couple of years cannot be result of reinforcement.

There are universal structures to how grammar is developed around the world in kids language use.

Children are seen as passive recipients. They actually produce and creatively make up a lot of language aswell.

101
Q

Nativistic approach to language development

A

We have a LAD, language acquisiton device that is an innate module that’s responsibile for our language development. Universal and the same for all natural languages.

102
Q

Innateness hypothesis

A

Children are born with at least some degree of innate language structure, and this structure is filled in like a blueprint with the details.

103
Q

Poverty of stimulus argument (POS)

A

Children are not exposed to a rich enough data to account for the language they acquire. This is evidence contrary to empiristic belief that we learn everything from our surroundings.

104
Q

Critique against nativistic approach

A

Not all grammar is innate. It continues to develop throughout childhood and adolesence.

Chomsky said that cognition is irrelevant for language development which is clearly wrong.

BUT, it is generally accepted that humans are born with a predisposition for language.

105
Q

Interactionism

A

Both innate abilitites and environment interact to shape our language development. We are predisposed to learn language but we need a rich external surrounding to supply us with enriching stimulus in order to learn languages. Kids who live their whole lives without interacting with humans may be able to develop some language skills but rarely more than a few words.

Biology, cognition and social components may have different effects on language development.

106
Q

Homozygote/Heterozygote

A

Homozygote is when the gene is made up of two identical alleles.
Heterozygote is when the gene is made up of one dominant and one recessive gene.

107
Q

Order of development

A

The functions and structures necessary for life are developed first, and then the rest come after.

The latter developments often inhibit earlier developed functions, as this ties to evolution. We have brainparts shared by other species, but humans have further developed the brains to inhibit previous functions.

Voluntary movements replace reflexes and involuntary movement.

108
Q

Synaptic pruning

A

Synapses that are used remain and their structures change to favor faster and more efficient communication. This leads to synapses’ structures change according to the membranes that it is connected to.

Less used synapses are pruned and die off. Some even die through apoptosis, programmed cell death.

109
Q

Epigenetic regulation

A

Genes can be turned off or on. The cell can also divide into new specializied cells such as skin or hair cells.

110
Q

Luftteorier

A

Biologiskt förprogrammerade strukturer i nervsystemet styr kroppens rörelser oavsett var barnet är. Mognadsteorier, maturation

111
Q

Markteorier(Dynamiska teorier)

A

Motoriken utvecklas i samspel mellan den egna kroppens förmågor samt förutsättningar och den fysiska miljön som vi befinner oss i. Påverkas också av hållning, och position samt handlingsmöjligheter. Om vi ligger ner rör vi oss på ett sätt, om vi står rör vi oss på ett annat.

Dynamisk utveckling, erfarenheten är väldigt viktig för utvecklingen. Naturligt urval via erfarenhet, det som är användbart för motoriken förbättras, det som inte behövs faller bort.

112
Q

Neurongruppteorin (markteori)

A

Synapserna i motoriska celler(primära neurongrupper) är resultat av biologisk utveckling via evolution. Men de kan påverkas av erfarenhet. Informationen från muskler kan påverka hjärnans utveckling.

113
Q

Första variationsfasen (neurongruppteorin)

A

Barns första rörelsemönster, generella rörelsemönster och de är biologiskt programmerade men behöver sedan finslipas via erfarenhet.

Genom rörelsevariation väljs de rörelser som är bäst lämpade för att nå sina mål. Barn har alltså många rörelser att välja mellan och med tiden väljs de mest effektiva ut.

114
Q

Selektionsfaser

A

Fasåldrar varierar för olika förmågor. Att krypa är en fas som kommer före att gå.

115
Q

Sekundär variationsfas

A

Finslipning av de första rörelsemönstrena. Vissa sätt att krypa är mer effektiva än andra. Alltså förbättras de originella grövre rörelsemönstrena för fungera bättre för ändamålet.

116
Q

Handling och kroppslig kognition

A

Kroppen är det som är grunden för de handlingar och rörelsemöjligheter vi har. Kroppens utformning och rörelser har ett tätt samband med handlingar och handlingsmöjligheter.

Motorisk utveckling är ett samspel mellan kroppen och dess utformning och kapacitet samt den yttre fysiska världen och de handlingsmöjligheter som finns till hands.

Handling och perception är grunden för utveckling av kroppslig kognition.

117
Q

Motorisk utveckling

A

En anpassningsprocess där barnets kropp utvecklas i förhållande till fysisk kapacitet, men även perception av sin omgivning och vad som anses vara möjligt att göra men även det som anses vara viktigt att göra ur ett socialt perspektiv.

Handlingen är kärnan i denna utveckling. Den utvecklar vår perception, kognition, motorik och motivation att göra saker. Men alla dessa saker utvecklar också handlingen och våra handlingsmöjligheter. Allting samspelar och har en inverkan på varandra.

Utvecklingen handlar om att göra, inte om att lyckas med det mål som sattes eller söktes uppfyllas.

118
Q

Från reflexer till handlingar

A

Reflexer är det sätt som barn till en början rör sig. De är omedvetna och automatiska beteenden som styr barnets kropp. Utlöses av ett nyckelstimulus och ger upphov till samma respons varje gång. De går inte att ändra.

Handlingar är en utveckling av den initiella reflexen och som styrs av en medveten och motiverad individ som har ett mål i åtanke. De ändras baserat på målet och vad som avses åstadkommas. Olika handlingar kan leda till samma mål.

119
Q

Reflexer

A

Vissa reflexer är faktiskt inte reflexer utan handlingssystem som aktiveras av vissa yttre faktorer och stimuli. Gradvis förlorar de sin reflexmässiga karaktär och går över i medveten handling.

120
Q

Grovmotorik

A

Stora rörelsemönster. Röra armarna och benen är grovmotorik. Även kroppshållning och position samt förflyttning av den egna kroppen. Prediktiv kontroll viktig för både grov- och finmotorik. Kroppen koordinerar dessa rörelser i förhållande till rådande omständigheter i miljön.

121
Q

Finmotorik

A

Mindre haptiska rörelser som är mer delikata. Skriva med en penna, pincettgrepp, peka osv.

Utvecklingen här sker med bättre koordination och precision i fingrarna samt förbättrad prediktiv kontroll. Hur hårt något ska hållas eller hur handen ska formas samtidigt som armen rör sig mot objektet.

122
Q

Proprioceptionens roll i motorik

A

Att inte se något betyder inte att man inte kan greppa efter det. Även att barnet inte ser sin arm eller hand innebär inte att man inte kan röra den för att ta något. Kroppen tar hjälp av signaler från muskler för att koordinera handrörelse eller armen och på så sätt ändå lyckas utföra motoriska handlingar.

123
Q

Basemotioner

A

Medfödda emotioner. Glädje, ilska, ledsamhet etc. Triggas automatiskt och kräver ej medvetenhet eller reflektion.

124
Q

Sekundära emotioner

A

Kräver självmedvetenhet och eftertanke. Skam, skuld osv. Femåringar behöver en annan persons närvaro för att kunna skuld. 11-åring känner skuld även när den är ensam.

125
Q

Socialt refererande

A

När man är osäker på hur man ska bete sig tittar man på de i sin omgivning för ledtrådar. Barn tittar ofta på sin mamma för tips. Stranger distress kan förstärkas om mamman reagerar negativt på främlingen.

Thomas & Chess temperamentsmodell

A

Easy: Positivt humör, anpassningsbar och tydlig rytm.(Sover och äter regelbundet)
Difficult: Negativt humör, ogillar förändring och reagerar starkt. Oregelbunden sömn och matvanor.
Slow to warm up: Försiktiga barn som reagerar mildare, både pos/neg reaktion. Behöver tid för att vänja sig men sedan normalt beteende.

Q

Goodness of fit

A

Temperamentet påverkas av det som miljön efterfrågar. Är det en stressig miljö kan barnet utveckla negativt temperament. Är föräldrarna lugna och har en sensitive care-stil så är det lätt att vara glad och positiv.

Samma om skolmiljön är aggressiv kan det vara en överlevnadsfunktion att utveckla aggressivt temperament.

Q

Mary Rothbarts temperamentsmodell

A

Första året kännetecknas av negativ affekt och extraversion. Ingen medveten reglering.

Tredje året är mer medveten reglering av känslor.

129
Q

Reglering av känslor

A

Går från extern(vårdnadshavare) reglering till intern.

Först är det vårdnadshavarna som reagerar på barnets signaler och emotionella uttryck och tar hand om barnet. Matar, lägger på kvällarna osv. Barnet gör ingen medveten självreglering vid detta stadie.

Sedan går det över till medveten självreglering där barnet inser att det är hungrigt och därför äter. Eller är trött och därför vill sova.

Q

Anknytningsteorin

A

Inte föda som är det viktigaste. Ur evolutionärt perspektiv är det inlärning och överlevnad som är avgörande för att ett barn knyter an till vårdnadshavare.

Q

Tre aspekter som främjar anknytning

A

Leenden och respons. Barn som har AP som ler mot dem har större benägenhet att knyta an till dem än de som inte får leenden mot sig.

Socialt refererande - Barnet lär sig saker om verkligheten och miljön via föräldrarnas agerande socialt men även bara i hur de utför handlingar som att äta, eller städa osv. Detta stärker barnets anknytning till föräldern. Därför viktigt med en närvarande förälder som är engagerad.

Föräldrasensitivitet. Här kommer närvaro och engagemang in igen. En förälder som är kall och okänslig och som inte är lyhörd på barnets behov och kommunikation hämmar anknytningsprocessen och kan leda till att barnet utveckar disfunktionell anknytning.

132
Q

Föräldrarstil och anknytningsstil

A

Trygg anknytning: Lyhörd förälder
Undvikande anknytning: Avvisande förälder. Undviker för att föräldern ändå bara avvisar barnet.
Ambivalent anknytning - Då föräldern är inkonsekvent, bara närvarande ibland och ibland emotionellt frånvarande.

133
Q

Internal working model

A

Kommer från anknytningsupplevelsen. Det är barnets uppfattning om sin plats i världen, sitt värde, hur mycket de kan förvänta sig av omvärlden i förhållande till sitt värde.
