2. Social Cognition Informational Social Influence (or Social Referencing) –Dads encourage, moms protect –Dads for play, moms for comfort –Of course, differences are normal Autonomy vs. Shame

3. Temperament Definition: the building blocks of personality –Level of activity –Emotional intensity –Mood –Extraversion/Introversion –Attention vs. Distractibility Remember the monkey video!

4. Attachment Emotional bond between people Thought to be stable Secure Attachment: comfort, confidence Insecure attachment: anxiety, neglect, inconsistency Strange Situation Capitalizing on chance, bad research, and what really matters

5. Infant Daycare Paid, non-relatives Little research to date Effective after age 3, maybe before Quality matters: attention, encourage development, safe, well-trained Better social skills & achievement Benefits for caregivers 3 rd variable problem (again!)
