self efficacy

"i can do it" vs guilt if fail- want to act independently, but not always successful, or conflicts with conscience

effortful control

(self-regulation) includes "attentional focusing and shifting, inhibitor control,perceptual sensitivity, and low-intensity pleasure" Infants who are high on effortful control show an ability to keep their arousal from getting too high and have strategies for soothing themselves

social referencing

- "reading" emotional cues in others to help determine how to act in a particular situation. The development of social referencing helps infants to interpret ambiguous situations more accurately, as when they encounter a stranger and need to know whether to fear the person

phase 1 attachment

- : From birth to 2 months. Infants instinctively direct their attachment to human figures. Strangers, siblings, and parents are equally likely to elicit smiling or crying from the infant.

parts of brain active in emotional regulation

- Ability to regulate emotions is tied to the gradual maturation of the frontal regions of the cerebral cortex (which exerts control over other areas of the brain)

What strategies can adults use when attempting to improve children's memory skills?

- Advise children to elaborate on what is to be remembered, encourage children to engage in mental imagery, motivate children to remember materal by understanding it rather than by memorizing it, repeat with variation on the instructional information and link early and often, and embed memory relevant language when instructing children.

autonomous morality

- At about 10 years of age and older. They become aware that rules and laws are created by people, and in judging an action they consider the actor's intentions as well as the consequences.

phase 2 attachment

- From 2 to 7 months. Attachment becomes focused on one figure, usually the primary caregiver, as the baby gradually learns to distinguish familiar from unfamiliar people.

heteronomous morality

- From about 4 to 7 years of age, the first stage of moral development in Piaget's theory. Children think of justice and rules as unchangeable properties of the world, removed from the control of people.

what is a learning disability

- Has difficulty in learning that involves understanding or using spoken or written language, and the difficulty can appear in listening, thinking, reading, writing, and spelling. To be classified as a learning disability, the learning problem is not primarily the result of visual, hearing, or motor disabilities; intellectual disability; emotional disorders; or environmental, cultural, or economic disadvantage

What is the leading cause of death for this age group? What are the most common childhood cancers?

- Injuries are the leading cause of death during idle and late childhood. Most common among that being motor vehicle accidents. - Most common cancer is leukemia, followed by brain

What parental behaviors lead to the development of shame and doubt?

- It is important for parents to recognize the motivation of toddlers to do what they are capable of doing at their own pace. Then they can learn to control their muscles and their impulses themselves. But when caregivers are impatient and do for toddlers what they are capable of doing themselves, shame and doubt develop

differences in maternal and paternal caregiving

- Maternal interactions usually center on child-care activities such as feeding, changing diapers, or bathing. Paternal interactions are more likely to include play Fathers engage in more rough-and-tumble play than mothers do. They bounce infants, throw them up in the air, tickle them, and so on Mothers do play with infants, but their play is less physical and arousing than that of fathers.

what are the characteristics of autism spectrum disorders

- Problems in social interaction, problems in verbal and nonverbal communication, and repetitive behaviors. - Also may show atypical responses to sensory experiences - Intellectual disability is present in some and other show average or above average

characteristics of high quality child care

- Related to higher quality mother child interaction. Involves providing children with a safe environment, access to age appropriate toys and participation in age appropriate activities, and a low caregiver to child ratio that allows caregivers to spend considerable time with children on an individual basis

goodness of fit

- The match between a childs temperament and the environment demands the child must cope with. - Ex) Jason is an active toddler who is made sit still for long periods of time. Not a good fit

what reasons avoiding for spanking

- When adults punish a child by yelling, screaming, or spanking, they are presenting children with out-of-control models for handling stressful situations. Children may imitate this aggressive, out-of-control behavior. - Punishment can instill fear, rage, or avoidance. For example, spanking the child may cause the child to avoid being around the parent and to fear the parent. - Punishment tells children what not to do rather than what to do. Children should be given feedback, such as "Why don't you try this?" - Punishment can be abusive. Parents might unintentionally become so angry when they are punishing the child that they become abusive

insecure disorganized babies

- appear disoriented. In the Strange Situation, these babies might seem dazed, confused, and fearful. To be classified as disorganized, babies must show strong patterns of avoidance and resistance or display certain specified behaviors, such as extreme fearfulness around the caregiver.

theory of mind

- awareness of one's own mental processes and the mental processes of others. Studies of theory of mind view the child as "a thinker who is trying to explain, predict, and understand people's thoughts, feelings, and utterances"

How do most child psychologists recommend parents handle misbehavior?

- by reasoning with the child, especially explaining the consequences of the child's actions for others. Time out, in which the child is removed from a setting that offers positive reinforcement, can also be effective. For example, when the child has misbehaved, a parent might take away TV viewing for a specified time.

scaffolding

- changing the level of support. Over the course of a teaching session, a more-skilled person (a teacher or advanced peer) adjusts the amount of guidance to fit the child's current performance When the student is learning a new task, the skilled person may use direct instruction. As the student's competence increases, less guidance is given. As the student's competence increases, the person gives less guidance

What response do infants have when their caregivers are still and unresponsive?

- infants show more withdrawal, negative emotions, and self-directed behavior when their caregivers are still and unresponsive and not participating in face to face plaly

insecure resistant babies

- often cling to the caregiver and then resist her by fighting against the closeness, perhaps by kicking or pushing away. In the Strange Situation, these babies often cling anxiously to the caregiver and don't explore the playroom. When the caregiver leaves, they often cry loudly and then push away if she tries to comfort them on her return.

insecure avoidant babies

- show insecurity by avoiding the caregiver. In the Strange Situation, these babies engage in little interaction with the caregiver, are not distressed when she leaves the room, usually do not reestablish contact when she returns, and may even turn their back on her. If contact is established, the infant usually leans away or looks away.

What are the components of Sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence?

- states that intelligence comes in three forms: (1) analytical intelligence, which refers to the ability to analyze, judge, evaluate, compare, and contrast; (2) creative intelligence, which consists of the ability to create, design, invent, originate, and imagine; and (3) practical intelligence, which involves the ability to use, apply, implement, and put ideas into practice.

whole language and phonics approaches

- stresses that reading instruction should parallel children's natural language learning. In some whole-language classes, beginning readers are taught to recognize whole words or even entire sentences, and to use the context of what they are reading to guess at the meaning of words. Reading materials that support the whole-language approach are whole and meaningful—that is, children are given material in its complete form, such as stories and poems, so that they learn to understand language's communicative function. - emphasizes that reading instruction should teach basic rules for translating written symbols into sounds

What are concerns with young children having so much screen time? (NOTE: recent research suggests that rates of myopia are increasing because kids spend so much time indoors (and often looking at screens)

- too much screen time can have a negative influence on children by making them passive learners, distracting them from doing homework, teaching them stereotypes, providing them with violent models of aggression, and presenting them with unrealistic views of the world. Among other concerns about young children having so much screen time are decreasing time spent in play, less time interacting with peers, decreased physical activity, an increased tendency to become overweight or obese, poor sleep habits, and higher rates of aggression

securely attached babies

- use the caregiver as a secure base from which to explore the environment. When they are in the presence of their caregiver, securely attached infants explore the room and examine toys that have been placed in it. When the caregiver departs, securely attached infants might protest mildly, and when the caregiver returns these infants reestablish positive interaction with her, perhaps by smiling or climbing onto her lap. Subsequently, they often resume playing with the toys in the room.

What are the 4 types of child abuse and what are the outcomes associated with it?

1. Physical abuse: infliction of physical injury as a result of punching, beating, kicking, etc 2. Child neglect: failure to provide for the childs basic needs. Physical, educational, emotional. 3. Sexual abuse 4. Emotional abuse: includes acts or omissions by parents or other caregivers that have caused, or could cause, serious behavioral, cognitive, or emotional problems

authoritative parenting

1. encourages children to be independent but still places limits and controls on their actions. Extensive verbal give-and-take is allowed, and parents are warm and nurturing toward the child. An authoritative parent might put his arm around the child in a comforting way and say, "You know you should not have done that. Let's talk about how you can handle the situation better next time." Children whose parents are authoritative are often cheerful, self-controlled and self-reliant, and achievement-oriented; they tend to maintain friendly relations with peers, cooperate with adults, and cope well with stress.

indulgent parenting

1. is a style in which parents are highly involved with their children but place few demands or controls on them. Such parents let their children do what they want. As a result, the children never learn to control their own behavior and always expect to get their way. Some parents deliberately rear their children in this way because they believe the combination of warm involvement and few restraints will produce a creative, confident child. However, children whose parents are indulgent rarely learn respect for others and have difficulty controlling their behavior. They might be domineering, egocentric, noncompliant, and have difficulties in peer relation

neglectful parenting

1. is a style in which the parent is uninvolved in the child's life. Children whose parents are neglectful develop the sense that other aspects of the parents' lives are more important than they are. These children tend to be socially incompetent. Many have poor self-control and don't handle independence well. They frequently have low self-esteem, are immature, and may be alienated from the family. In adolescence, they may show patterns of truancy and delinquency.
