15. Physical Development
Within two years an infant transforms into a little boy or girl with many capabilities.
This is due to:
Maturation
Learning—a relatively permanent change in behavior that occurs as a result of experience.
Section 1

16. Physical Development (cont.)
Psychologists have been able to develop an approximate timetable for maturation, which helps doctors and other professionals spot problems.
Each child is unique, so the age range on some milestones varies.

A. 8–9 months
B. 10–11 months
C. 12 months or more A B C

20. The Development of Language
Chimpanzees develop at least as far as a 2 year-old-human; however, they cannot apply grammatical rules.
Grammar—a set of rules for combining words into phrases and sentences to express an infinite number of thoughts that can be understood by others.
Section 1

21. The Development of Language (cont.)
Psychologists argue over whether language is reinforced or inborn.
Some people also claim that there is a window of opportunity for learning language.
Section 1

22. The Development of Language (cont.)
Steps to learning language:
A person must learn to make signs, either by hand or mouth.
He or she must learn the meaning of the signs.
Then he or she must learn grammar.
Section 1

23. The Development of Language (cont.)
At the age of 2, a child’s language is known as telegraphic speech—the kind of verbal utterances in which words are left out, but the meaning is usually clear.
Once children begin to learn grammatical rules, they tend to overgeneralize those rules until they truly understand them.

B. Innate
C. Both A B C

30. Cognitive Development
Jean Piaget believed that intelligence, or the ability to understand, develops gradually as the child grows.
Intellectual development involves:
Quantitative changes (growth in the amount of information)
Qualitative changes (differences in the manner of thinking)
Jean Piaget
Section 2

31. Cognitive Development (cont.)
A schema is a conceptual framework a person uses to make sense of the world.
Assimilation and accommodation work together to produce intellectual growth.
When events do not fit into an existing schema, a new one must be formed.
Section 2

32. Cognitive Development (cont.)
Object permanence is a big step in a child’s second year of life.
Achieving object permanence usually signifies representational thought.
The realization of conservation occurs between the ages of 5 and 7.
Before the age of 5, children are egocentric.
Tasks to Measure Conservation
Section 2

33. Cognitive Development (cont.)
Piaget’s stages of cognitive development:

Section 2

34. Cognitive Development (cont.)
Concrete operations stage—children are able to use logical schemas, but their understanding is limited to concrete objects.
Formal operations stage—the person is able to solve abstract problems.
Piaget’s Stages of Cognitive Development
Section 2

35. At which stage does a child master the concept of conservation?
A. Sensorimotor
B. Preoperational

Section 2

37. Emotional Development (cont.)
Harry Harlow concluded that monkeys clung to their mothers because of the need for contact comfort, not necessarily food.
Some psychologist also believe that human babies form an attachment to their mothers around 6 months.
Section 2

Stranger anxiety—the fear of strangers that infants commonly display.
Separation anxiety—distress that is sometimes experienced by infants when they are separated from their primary caregivers.

They also respond to the child with warmth and support.
Section 3

Phallic stage
Latency stage
Genital stage
Freud’s Stages of Psychosexual Development
Section 3

57. Social Development (cont.)
During the phallic stage, the child wants to claim the parent of the opposite sex for him or herself, but then begins the process of identification (a child adopts the values and principles of the same-sex parent).
During the latency stage, the child learns the process of sublimation.
Section 3

58. Social Development (cont.)
Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development is based on life periods in which an individual’s goal is to satisfy desires associated with social needs.
Erikson’s Stages of Psychosocial Development
Section 3

59. Social Development (cont.)
Freud and Erikson believe that learning social rules is innate.
Many psychologists believe that that social development is a matter of conditioning and imitation.
Section 3

60. Social Development (cont.)
Cognitive theorists view social development as a result of a child’s acting on the environment and trying to make sense out of his experience.
Game playing is one way that children learn such as role taking.
Section 3

61. Social Development (cont.)
Lawrence Kohlberg conducted studies to show how important being able to see other people’s points of view is to social and moral development.
Kohlberg’s Stages of Moral Development
Section 3

62. Social Development (cont.)
Stages of moral development:
Stage one—Children are egocentric.

66. Physical and Motor Development
Although different infants achieve milestones in motor development at slightly different ages, all infants achieve them in essentially the same order. This chart shows the average ages when milestones are usually achieved.
Figure 1

67. The Visual Preferences of Adults
Three- or four-month-old infants show a strong preference for faces and patterns, suggesting that infants are born with and develop visual preferences.
Figure 2

68. The Flowering of Language
Between the ages of 2 and 5, the typical child learns an average of 10 words a day–nearly one word every hour awake!
Figure 3

69. Tasks to Measure Conservation
The concept of conservation can be used to show that children think less logically than adults do. Children in the preoperational stage so not understand that the property of a substance remains the same although its appearance may change.
Figure 4

70. Piaget’s Stages of Cognitive Development
Piaget stressed that the active role of the child in gaining knowledge. He also stressed the differences in the way a child thinks during different stages of maturity.
Figure 5

71. Freud’s Stages of Psychosexual Development
According to Freud, there is often conflict between child and parent. The conflict occurs because the child wants immediate gratification of needs while the parent restricts that gratification in some way.
Figure 6

72. Erikson’s Stages of Psychosocial Development
According to Erikson, a child encounters a psychosocial challenge at each stage. If the child successfully resolves the issue, the child develops a positive social trait and progresses to the next stage.
Figure 7

73. Kohlberg’s Stages of Moral Development
Each stage of Kohlberg’s theory is cognitively more complex than the last.
Figure 8

74. Jean Piaget 1896–1980
“[T]he child no longer tends to approach the state of adulthood by receiving reason and the rules of right action ready-made, but by achieving them with his own effort and personal experience; in return society expects more of its new generations than mere imitation: it expects enrichment.”
