Developmental Psychology

From Conception Through Year 1

3 Main Debates Nature vs. Nurture Continuity vs. Discontinuity Stability vs. Change

Nature vs. Nurture How do genetic inheritance (nature) and experience (nurture) influence our development?

Continuity vs. Discontinuity Is development a gradual, continuous process, (like riding an escalator) or does it proceed through the sequence of separate states (like climbing rungs on a ladder)? OR

Stability vs. Change Do our early personality traits persist through life, or do we become different persons as we age?

Research Methods Cross-Sectional Studies Longitudinal Studies Participants of different ages studied at the same time Longitudinal Studies One group of people studied over a long period of time

Prenatal Development Prenatal: before birth; during or relating to pregnancy Three stages: Germinal Embryonic Fetal

Germinal Stage Begins at conception Drop of an egg (female) and release of ~200 million sperm (male) Sperm seeks out the egg to penetrate egg’s surface That’s you.

Germinal Stage Once sperm penetrates the egg, a zygote is formed. Zygote begins to divide Differentiation occurs 10-14 days: attaches itself to wall of the uterus Outer part: placenta Inner part: embryo cute kid…

Embryonic Stage Weeks 2-8 Embryo is 1½ inches long Testosterone produced by testes = male No testosterone = female Heart begins to beat; organs begin to develop

Fetal Stage 8 weeks to birth Further develops organs By 6th month, the stomach and other organs have formed enough to survive outside of mother. Baby can hear (and recognize) sounds and respond to light.

Baby exposed to genital herpes virus Fetal Stage Can be negatively impacted by… German measles X-rays Chemicals STDs Cigarette smoking Alcohol consumption Drugs Baby exposed to genital herpes virus
