Developmental Psychology I - What is Behaviourism and How did it Die? Classical Conditioning Pavlov and his Dogs Operant Conditioning Skinner and his Pigeons Language Acquisition Observational Learning The Bobo Doll 1

Classical Conditioning - Pavlov and His Dogs 2

Learning and Unlearning In classical conditioning learning is the association of a CS with a UCS to the extent that the CS produces the UCR (now it is a CR) Generalization occurs when the CS is changed slightly and the CR still happens Discrimination occurs when the CS is changed and the CR does not happen Extinction occurs when the CS no longer produces the UCR 3

Operant Conditioning How does an organism learn to do things it doesn’t normally do? That is how do you ever get behaviour that doesn’t occur as an UCR? Operant Conditioning has an answer - behaviour that is rewarded will occur more often in the future; behaviour that is not rewarded will occur less often Complex behaviours can be shaped through rewards Learning is the acquisition of new behaviours 4

Types of Reinforcers Positive reinforcer - getting good things Negative reinforcer - removing bad things Note a negative reinforcer is not a punishment Primary reinforcers - pleasant in their own right Conditioned reinforcers - pleasant through their association (note the classical conditioning here) 5

Language Acquisition Skinner’s account - we learn language through reinforcement Chomsky’s account - we have an inborn ability to learn language Here behaviourism was clearly wrong 6

Observational Learning Do we only learn by being rewarded or punished? Bandura thought that perhaps we can learn just by watching. Note how this requires thought to intervene. Let’s look at the Bobo Doll study. Implications for violence on TV and in the movies. 7

The Big Picture - The fundamental Issues Being Addressed Nature vs. Nurture How applicable is the science of psychology to everyday life Is there still a role for behaviourism? 8

Developmental Psychology II The Big Picture Physical Development We will focus on big changes early and late Cognitive Development Piaget’s Theory Recent evidence extending and qualifying this theory Social Development Attachment Theory Erikson’s Theory Gender Development

Physical Development Infancy

Physical Development Infancy

Physical Development Declines in Old Age

Cognitive Development Piaget’s Theory

Cognitive Development Piaget’s Theory

Extensions and Qualifications of Piaget’s Theory Does object permanence really emerge at or around 8 months? Egocentrism and research on theory of mind. Development is more continuous and happens earlier than Piaget proposed

Research at the University of Waterloo - Theory of Mind in 2 year olds Dr. Daniela O’Neill Study 1 The participants were 2 and a half year olds The experimenter hid a toy in one of several locations when the parent was looking or not The child had to direct the parent to the location The child used more gestures and named the location more when the parent wasn’t looking when the item was hid Study 2 The participants were 2 year and 3 months old Similar to Study 1 but stickers were put in containers Children used more gestures when parents weren’t looking

Social Development Attachment Theory Harlow’s Monkey Studies The theory behind attachment theory The methodology behind attachment theory What attachment predicts Social competence Even good adult relationships

Social Development Erikson’s Theory

Gender Development A common observation is that children’s behaviour and particularly their play is gender stereotyped. Why? Is it the way their parents treat them? Let’s look at two theories of gender typing?
