Week 1 Flashcards
How are developmental disorders defined?
Psychological disorders as patterns of behavioural cognitive, emotional or physical symptoms.
how is distress demonsterd as in developmental disorder?
fear and sandness
how is disability illustrated as in developmental disorders?
Physical, emotional, cognitive and behavioural areas
How is ‘risk of harm’ demonstrated in developmental disorder?
death
pain
loss of freedom
What are the 3 qualitative differences?
Developmental delay
regression
asynchrony
What is the qualitative difference of developmental disorders?
Developmental diviation
define developmental delay?
slow at achieving there mile stone
define regression in terms of developmental disorders?.
child declines in developmental loss of function
define asynchony in terms of developmental disorders?
excel in specific areas and developmental delay in other areas skills
What is developmental deviation in terms of developmental disorder?
example?
engage in different behaviours compared to others
sensitivity to sound/ light
motor functions - stand on toes
What are the traditional theoretical models of childhood psychopathology?
behavioural model attachment and parenting model family-based model biological model cognitive model integrative approach model
What are the normal behaviours exhibited in a behavioural model?
conditioning schedule that leads to reinforced adaptive behaviour
operant or classical condition and observational learning
What are abnormal development in the behavioural model?
occurs when conditions reinforce maladaptive behaviour.
what are normal development of attachment and parenting model?
showing secure attachments and uses the caregiver as a social reference
What are the abnormal developments of the attachment and parent model?
extreme anxious/resistant attachment
or
extreme avoidant attachment
- parents work away
- parents not in child's lifeWhat is the normal development of the family-based model? what is the solution?
Focus is away from the child, the child is alone
-negotiate series of developmental stages
What are abnormal development of family-based model?
Family moves forward in life without address child’s issue
What are the factors of the biological model of childhood psychopathology?
genetic/chromosomal abnormalities
level of neurotransmitters that are firing -serotonin level
prenatal environment - drugs and alcohol
Structural or functional brain impairment - frontal lobe = ADHD
What is a the definition of the Cognitive model?
the process associated with a disorder
What part of childhood development is impaired by a reading disorder?
Impaired phonological by having difficulty mapping and graphing the written phonemes for words.
What part of childhood development is impaired by ADHD?
impaired inhibitory processes
What part of childhood development is impaired by autism?
Impair theory of mind
What model is used in today ?
integrative approach model
What factors does intergrative approach model include to interact with development?
Child’s biology
parental practices
social/school
money/poverty
The complexity of abnormal child behaviour requires consideration of the full range of biological, psychological and sociocultural factors that influence children’s development.
T/F
True
What levels of analysis are used within the developmental psychopathology framework?
Biological congnitive parenting family peers sociocultural
Each child’s developmental pathways require unique and determined by multiple influences.
T/F
True
Define risk factors
A variable that precedes a negative outcome of interest increases the chances that the work will occur.
Define Protective factors?
Personal or situational variable that reduces the chance for a child to develop a disorder
Define Protective factors.
Personal or situational variable that reduces the chance for a child to develop a disorder
Define resilience
a tribute of the child which varies according to the type of stress, its context and similar factors (coping mechanisms)
What are the 2 types of developmental pathways?
Multifinality
Equifinality
Define multifinality
and example
Different outcomes stem from a similar beginning.
domestic violence
1) mood disorder
2) conduct disorder
define Equifinality
example
similar outcomes stem from different early experiences
1) genetic patterns
2) environmental factories
= conduct disorder
