events that most people normally experience at about the same age; strong relations to chronological age
Age Related Normative Events
biological events that most people experience at same age, regardless of culture (ex. Teething, walking, puberty)
Normative Maturation Events
each age cohort is exposed to a segment of history and because the society changes over time, the members of different age cohorts act in different ways (Great Depression, WWII)
Normative History-graded Influences
unexpected events that either donÂ’t happen to most people or happen at an usual age; this is responsible for our differences and can be biological (ex. Cancer, divorce, lottery)
Non-Normative Events
those that affect a specific group of people who share a common time in history
Cohort Related Events
the branch of psychology that deals with how individuals change with time while remaining in some respects the same.
Developmental Psychology
Four goals of Developmental Psychology
To DESCRIBE the changes that typically occur across the life span.
To EXPLAIN these changes-to specify the determinants of developmental change.
To PREDICT developmental changes.
To be able to use their knowledge to intervene in the course of events in order to CONTROL them.
all intertwined in every aspect of development
Domains of Development
3 Domains of Development
Physical Dev
Cognitive Dev
Emotional-social Dev
involves the changes that occur in a personÂ’s body, including weight and height; in the brain, heart, and other organ structures and processes; and in skeletal, muscular, and neurological features that affect motor skills.
Physical Dev
those changes that occur in mental activity, including changes in sensation, perception, memory, thought, reasoning, and language.
Cognitive Dev
changes in an individualÂ’s personality, emotions, and relationships with others.
Emotional-social Dev
Processes of Development
Growth
Maturation
Learning:
takes place through metabolic processes from within. There is an increase in size as well. Organism takes in a variety of substances, breaks them down into their chemical components, and then reassembles them into new materials. This refers to an increas
Growth
concerns the more or less automatic unfolding of biological potential in a set, irreversible sequence. Refers to the development of organs and limbs in relation to their ability to function. These are independent of environmental events
Maturation
more or less permanent modification in behavior that results from the individualÂ’s experience in the environment. This occurs throughout the whole lifespan and is dependent on both growth and maturation, which underlie a personÂ’s readiness to learn.
Learning
To understand the context, we refer to Urie BronfenbrennerÂ’s ecological approach to development. He examines the mutual accommodations between the developing person and these changing contexts in terms of four levels of environmental influence: the micr
Context of Development:
the study of developmental influences must include the personÂ’s interaction with the environment, the personÂ’s changing physical and social settings, the relationship among those settings, and how the entire process is affected buy the society in which
Ecological Approach
consists of the network of social relationships and physical settings in which a person is involved everyday (school, family, church, peers, etc.)
Microsystem
consists of the interrelationships among the various settings in which
the developing person is immersed (between the micro and exo)
Mesosystem:
an environment that is external to the developing person and consists of social structures that directly or indirectly affect a personÂ’s life (mass media, extended family, gov agencies, educational system)
Exosystem
consists of the overarching cultural patterns of a society that are expressed in family, educational, economic, political, and religious institutions (cultural beliefs and ideologies)
Macrosystem:
we are born with a blank stare, inheriting only the ability to learn from out environment. Development is almost entirely dependent on learning (nurture).
Behaviorism
a type of learning in which a neutral stimulus, after being paired with a unconditioned stimulus, begins to trigger a response to similar to that normally triggered by the unconditioned stimulus.
Classical Conditioning
the assumption that we naturally associate events that occur in sequence
Association
not conditioned (ex. The loud noise because the fear reaction to the loud noise is innate and thus not learned)
Unconditioned Stimulus
the response to the unconditioned stimulus (fear of the loud noise)
Unconditioned Response
one that doesnÂ’t elicit any emotional response (people learn to associate this with a second stimulus that always (unconditionally) elicits an emotional response (ex. White rat)
Neutral Stimulus
the rat becomes this because Albert will eventually react to the rat the way he reacts to the loud noise since they are introduced together all the time
Conditioned Stimulus
the fear to the rat
Conditioned Response
we learn to do and what not to do. We tend to repeat behaviors that are rewarded and tend to not repeat acts that are not rewarded.
Operant Conditioning
a rewarding stimulus such as attention or money that is presented after a response. This strengthens the response.
Positive Reinforcement
doing a behavior that turns off an unpleasant stimulus (child may clean room to quiet a nagging parent). Behavior has been increased in order to withdraw an aversive stimulus after the response is emitted.
Negative Reinforcement
occurs after the wrong behavior occurs and is designed to decrease or stamp out the bad behavior.
Punishment
we learn from many types of models. Some things are learned through direct observation. Other things are learned through symbolic models such as verbal instruction or TV.
Social Learning Theory:
imitating to learn
Modeling
the full use and exploitation of talents, capacities, potentials, etc, people have an inborn tendency to become self-actualized
Self-Actualization
the degree to which we think we can be effective in a given situation
Self-Efficacy
the process of understanding the world by fitting it into our preexisting schemas
Assimilation
revising existing schemas or adding new schemas
Accommodation:
an especially joyous and exciting moment
Peak Experiences
higher levels arenÂ’t influential unless lower ones have been met (see triangle)
Hierarchy of Needs
therapist like; complete acceptance of the person, regardless of what the client thinks or feels.
Unconditional Positive Regard
we are how we are because of how our parents treated us and raised us
Self
you were of worth (value) when you did things they approved of and worthless when you did things they disapproved of.
Conditions of Worth
tying to live up to what others want you to be, denying yourself from true feelings
Incongruent
strands of DNA in the nuclei of cells that occur in pairs and carry genetic information (each of us has 46 where half are from mother and half from father)
Chromosomes
each of us has how many of these where half are from mother and half from father
46
complex molecule running the length of each chromosome that forms the genetic code.
DNA: deoxyribonucleic acid
units of hereditary transmission made of protein and DNA that are strung along the length of each DNA molecule

Phenotype
same: if both alleles for a gene/trait are the same
Homozygous
different: when two alleles are different
Heterozygous

Executive
the workers; include many abilities such as being able to add, being able to reason logically, and being able to read the problem. Most IQ tests test this ability to quickly and accurately perform fairly simple mathematical and reasoning tasks.
Performance
Biological processes play a strong role in cognitive development. The biological process of maturation determines when cognitive development can occur. The biological process of equilibration motivates people to actively explore the world. It motivates p
