The other 35% could not be classied as easy, difcult, or slow-to-warm-up. Both emotional support and physical methods such as breathing techniques and massage may help ease the discomfort of labor. Clearly childrens brains are built for learning language, as noted in the previous chapter, and early childhood is a sensitive period for language learning, when the capacity for learning new words is especially pronounced (Pinker, 1994). Historically and worldwide today, motherinfant cosleeping is far more common than putting babies to sleep in a room of their own. Jeffrey Jensen Arnett and new coauthor Lene Arnett Jensen integrate cross-cultural examples throughout the narrative to reveal the impact of cultural factors both in the US and around the world. First we examine Piagets ideas about concrete operations, then we discuss information processing advances in attention and memory. Consequently, most traditional cultures have customary practices for weaning toddlers from the breast. In contrast, having infants sleep alone tends to reect an individualistic belief that each person should learn to be selfsufcient and not rely on others any more than necessary. In many traditional cultures, infants rarely touch the ground during their early months of life.

In a study comparing sleeping arrangements among Guatemalan Maya and European Americans, all the Mayan mothers coslept with their infants until the next child was born, whereupon the child would cosleep with the father or in a bed alongside the mother and the new baby (Morelli et al., 1992). 5.10 Describe the milestones in language development that take place during the toddler years. Taste and touch are nearly mature, hearing is well-developed in most respects, and sight is the least mature of the senses.

The grammar of childrens language use becomes more complex in middle childhood. Within groups, too, using language effectively would have given people an advantage in obtaining mates, food, and status, so natural selection would have favored language abilities in the course of human evolutionary history (Pinker, 2004). There was another milestone on Halloween, when they went trick-or-treating separately for the rst time, with friends instead of with us and each other. Toddlers with secure attachments seemed delighted to see their mothers again after a separation and often sought physical contact with her, whereas toddlers with insecure attachments either responded little to her return (avoidant) or seemed both relieved and angry at her (resistant). 6.20 Identify the most common features of sibling relationships worldwide, and describe how children with no siblings differ from other children. 5.5 Compare and contrast the process and timing of toilet training in developed countries and traditional cultures. American and Latino toddlers watch more TV than toddlers in other ethnic groups, initiating a pattern of ethnic differences that will continue throughout life (Anand et al., 2005). Reaching and grasping are two of the ne motor milestones of the rst year. The downside is that conict rises as toddlers become increasingly capable of asserting their own interests and desires. What can you tell her? Thetoddlers typicaland social for infants in do developed countries is to foster their childs language development. During playground observations following this 11-day experiment, children who had seen the violent cartoons were more likely than children in the nonviolent cartoon group to kick and hit their peers. However, there is also a biological basis to gender development.

In Japan a. learning academic skills is the number one goal of having children attend preschool. A person with asthma has periodic asthma attacks in which breathing is especially difcult (Israel, 2005). Here, a mother and daughter in Japan. The zone of proximal development is the difference between skills or tasks that children can accomplish alone and those they are capable of performing if guided by an adult or a more competent peer. If your group could construct a boat, you could potentially travel to new food sources if the local ones became depleted. (2006). Girls who were exposed to high levels of androgens in the womb are more likely than their peers to show male play behavior in early childhood, including playing with male toys like trucks and a preference for male playmates (Hines, 2004). Discuss your thoughts on the mother from Africa stating that she does not read to her baby because she is too young. Notice that the criteria for high-quality preschools do not include intense academic instruction. If an infant dies, this is often interpreted as indicating that the infant was not shown the proper respect and so decided to return to the spirit world. midwife whom the woman knows well.

Polygyny has become less common in recent decades. However, both boys and girls grow stronger during this stage. (2nd Ed.). Across cultures, fathers tend to provide less physical and emotional care than mothers, but this is changing as gender roles and work responsibilities change. You can think of temperament as the biologically based raw material of personality (Goldsmith 2009; Rothbart et al., 2000). They have few clear expectations for their childrens behavior, and they rarely discipline them. If damage to one of these areas occurs in adulthood the specialized language function of the area is also damaged; but if damage takes place in childhood, other areas of the brain can compensatewith compensation being greater the younger the brain injury takes Section 2 Cognitive Development place (Akshoomoff et al., 2002; Huttenlocher, 2002).

Calcium is especially important for the growth of bones and teeth, and is found in foods such beans, peas, broccoli, and dairy products such as milk and cheese. In Western countries, especially in the United States, pride is often viewed positively (Bellah et al., 1985; Twenge, 2006). But this is changrarely suspect how big and diverse our culture ing, and in recent years there has human species really is. During labor, the contractions of the muscles in the uterus cause the mothers cervix to dilate in preparation for the babys exit. Human Development: A Cultural Approach, 3rd Edition is also available via Revel(TM), an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience. When weaning takes place in the second or third year of life, toddlers often resist. All of these contexts make demands for emotional self-regulation. However, she never learned to make original combinations of signs (with one possible exception, when she saw a duck for the rst time and signed water bird). 147 The Sensorimotor Stage 148 Evaluating Piagets Sensorimotor Theory 150 100 105 Information Processing in Infancy 105 111 Evolutionary and Historical Perspectives on Breast Feeding 111 151 Attention 152 Memory 153 Assessing Infant Development CARING FOR THE NEONATE Nutrition: Is Breast Best? Let us begin by looking at the characteristics of one of the most widely used intelligence tests, and follow with an exploration of the genetic and environmental sources of individual differences. Traits such as gentle and dependent become increasingly viewed as feminine, and traits such as ambitious and dominant become increasingly viewed as masculine (Best, 2001; Heyman & Legare, 2004). 5.13 Describe the changes in self-development that take place during toddlerhood. Here as elsewhere in the human life span, how we experience a given stage of life depends greatly on cultural context. What age do you think it is appropriate to begin reading to children and why? The frontal lobes grow faster than the rest of the cerebral cortex during early childhood (Anderson et al., 2008; Blumenthal et al., 1999). Although bonding claims were false, the possibility that they were true led hospitals all over the world to reexamine their policies of sedating the mother and separating mother and child immediately after birth (Lamb, 1994). As we saw in Chapter 4, during infancy the primary cognitive advance of the rst four stages of sensorimotor development is from simple reexes to intentional, coordinated behavior. Methodological Issues in Aging Research (2nd ed.). During this period children become highly curious about the world, frequently asking Why? when others provide them with information. In early and middle childhood, lefthanders are more likely to have problems learning to read and to have other verbal learning disabilities (Natsopoulos et al., 1998). 4. In fact, the number of neurons in the brain drops by age 2 to about one-half what it was at birth (de Haan & Johnson, 2003). Children readily learn cultural messages about gender roles in toddlerhood, and by early childhood they help enforce these roles with other children. Gregory R. Samanez-Larkin. Consequently, attachment should be evident in similar ways across cultures. 16. From toddlerhood through early childhood, solitary play and parallel play decline somewhat while simple social play and cooperative pretend play increase (Hughes & Dunn, 2007). By age 4, it is estimated that children use correct grammar in 90% of their statements (Guasti, 2000; Pinker, 1994).

Also, not all languages have words to signify mental states. At what age are infants able to distinguish between their native language and other languages? 1. Gradually in the rst months of life these three emotions become differentiated into other primary emotions: distress into anger, sadness, and fear; interest into surprise; and pleasure into happiness. Toward the end of the 18- to 24-month period, toddlers begin to combine spoken words for the rst time. Sternbergs (1983, 1988, 2002, 2003, 2005) triarchic theory of intelligence includes three distinct but related forms of intelligence. Could this be a case of passive genotype l environment interactions? Crying often signals hunger, so offering the breast soothes the baby, but even if babies are not hungry they can find consolation in suckling, in the same way that babies in developed countries are soothed by a pacifier. Many cultures have words that are classied as bad words that are not supposed to be spoken, especially by children. APPLYING YOUR KNOWLEDGE What are the implications of attachment theory for the debate discussed in Chapter 4 over whether or not a crying baby should be comforted? Sibling conict is especially high when one sibling perceives the other as receiving more affection and material resources from the parents (Dunn, 2004). How is the typical pattern of father involvement with infant and toddlers in developed countries changing? Although middle childhood is the stage of life when the body tends to be slimmest, for many children in developed countries being overweight is a problem. In fact, toddlers in Africa (as well as African Americans) tend to reach gross motor milestones earlier than toddlers of European backgrounds (Kelly et al., 2006). Japanese mothers rarely respond to their childrens misbehavior with loud reprimands or physical punishment. How does toddlers understanding of object permanence develop beyond what infants know? b. Socioemotional emotions such as shame and pride rst appear. b. views about toilet training have stayed the same over the last several decades. Because breast milk has usually been the main form of nourishment for human infants during the rst half year, the mother tends to be the one who cares for the infant, more than anyone else. A variety of new fall into this kind of pattern. Experimental studies indicate that causation is involved, not just correlation. The personalized study plan arranges content from less-complex thinking, like remembering and understandingto morecomplex critical thinking skillslike applying and analyzing, and is based on Blooms taxonomy. b. Mahoris motor development will be similar to an American child if they are compared during kindergarten. Yet just a century ago, the most knowledgeable people of the time were certain these beliefs were true. SIBLINGS: YOUNGER AND OLDER We have seen already how important sibling relationships are for toddlers in traditional cultures, where an older sibling, usually a sister, often takes over the main responsibility for child care from the mother. The belief in the value of high self-esteem is part of American individualism (Bellah et al., 1985; Rychlak, 2003). When playing a socially dominant role such as teacher or doctor they used commands frequently, whereas when playing subordinate roles such as student or patient they spoke more politely. In early childhood, moral development advances further as children gain a more detailed and complex understanding of the rules and expectations of their culture. Children vary widely in the timing of learning toilet training, but most are toilet trained by the end of toddlerhood. Based on Blooms taxonomy, these numbered objectives help students better organize and understand the material. 4. He argued that they Bible was the basis of the cultural beliefs of should be given as much freedom as posmost of the West, including beliefs regardsible to allow their goodness and curiosity ing family relations.

This research originated in the United States and has involved mainly American children and their parents, although it has now been applied in some other countries as well. More recent analyses of gender socialization in traditional cultures have found that these patterns persist (Banerjee, 2005; LeVine, 2008). A Cultural Approach" (2010, 4th edition, Pearson); "Emerging Adulthood: The Winding Road from the Late Teens Through the Twenties" (2004, Oxford University Press); and "Metalheads: Heavy Metal Music and Adolescent Alienation "(1996, Westview Press). An infant who scores very low on the Bayley scales may have serious developmental problems. 7VW\SH[PVUIPSSPVUZ 5 Source: Ember (2007). If handedness appears so early, that must mean it is determined genetically, right? Describe an instance when you have witnessed a child experiencing separation or stranger anxiety. One reason is that the infants seem to like it. How can using scissors be a milestone of motor development in a culture where people do not use scissors? Critics have complained that IQ tests assess only a narrow range of abilities, and miss some of the most important aspects of intelligence, such as creativity. For the most part, attending preschool is benecial for young children (Campbell et al., 2002). However, by 12 months old the American infants could still recognize the r versus l distinction but the Japanese infants could not, as their language skills were now more specialized to their own language. Calcium is the most common nutritional deciency in the United States, with one-third of American 3-year-olds consuming less than the amount recommended by health authorities (Wagner & Greer, 2008). For example, children from Asian cultures are discouraged from valuing the self highly, yet they generally have high levels of academic performance and low levels of psychological problems (Twenge & Crocker, 2002). Boys who were exposed to high levels of estrogens in the womb are more likely than their peers to show female play behavior in early childhood, including playing with female toys like dolls and a preference for female playmates (Knickmeyer & Baron-Cohen, 2006). Malnourished infants are at risk for marasmus, a disease in which the body wastes away from lack of nutrients. Age 9 My, how theyre growing up. Consequently, we should be careful not to let our perceptions of gender differences prejudge our estimations of the qualities or abilities of individual boys or girls or men or women. In the United States, it is estimated that 37% of children are diagnosed with ADHD. But what about the environment improved so much in the course of the 20th century as to explain such a dramatic rise in median IQ Britain 100100 100 100 100 scores? c. Insecureresistant attachment is the most common classication in all cultures because many children nd the Strange Situation to be very stressful. By 18 months most can run, although at rst they run with the same stiff-legged, wide-stance posture as they use for walking. Toddlers in traditional cultures are allowed slightly more mobilityit is much harder to keep a toddler still than it is an infantbut they continue to be held and carried for about half their waking hours (Levine, 1977; Levine et al., 1994). Vygotsky called this private speech (Winsler, 2009). . This makes for a language-rich environment, because there is talking going on around them almost constantly, with so many people present. However, because the need to learn how to use words and numbers is so strong in the modern information-based economy, in many countries school now begins earlier than ever. Then they are asked what another person, who has not been shown the contents, will think is in the box. Nevertheless, a myth persists among many North American parents that kids in early childhood will only eat a small range of foods high in fat and sugar content, such as hamburgers, hot dogs, fried chicken, and macaroni and cheese (Zehle et al., 2007).
