Piaget’s writings, which favored transformations, are being replaced by writings that emphasize continuities between select cognitive functions of infants and older children. The claim that young infants possess elements present in the older child’s concepts of number, physical impossibility, and object permanence is vulnerable to criticism because the inferences are based primarily on the single measure of change in looking time. It is suggested that investigators use unique constructs to describe phenomena observed in young infants that appear, on the surface, to resemble the psychological competences observed during later developmental stages.

The middle class child, compared to the lower class child, generally exhibits: (1) better language comprehension and expression, (2) richer schema development, involving mental preparation for the unusual, (3) stronger attachment to the mother, making him more receptive to adoption of her values and prohibitions, (4) less impulsive action, (5) a better sense of his potential effectiveness,(6) more motivation for school defined tasks, and (7)greater exceptation of success at intellectual problems. Data from two studies are offered in support of some of these hypotheses. One, a longitudinal study of 140 white, middle and lower class involved observations of their reactions at 4, 8, 13, and 27 months of age to masks with scrambled facial features. The other, a cross sectional study of 60 white, 10-month-old middle and lower class infants involved home observations cf mother and child behaviors and labo.

  • Marshall, P. J. (2010). the Development of Emotion. Wiley
    Advanced Review The development of emotion Peter J. Marshall∗ Given that they are responsible for much of the meaning that we attribute to our existence, emotions could be said to have a central role in the psychological life of humans. But given this fundamental level of significance, the construct of emotion remains poorly understood, with the field of emotion research being full of conflicting definitions and opposing theoretical perspectives. In this review, one particular aspect of research into emotion is considered: the development of emotion in infancy and early childhood. The development of the emotional life of the child has been the focus of a vast amount of research and theorizing, so in a brief review it is only possible to scratch the surface of this topic. Rather than any attempt at a comprehensive account, three perennial questions in theorizing and research on early emotional development will be considered. First, what develops in emotional development? Second, what is the relation of cognitive development to emotional development? Third, how has the study of early individual differences in emotion expression typically been approached? In relation to the first question, four theoretical approaches to emotional development are described. For the second question, the focus is on the relation of self-awareness to the development of emotion. Finally, for the third question, the use of temperament theory as a framework for understanding individual differences in emotion expression is examined. 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

McFarland Collection in Aerospace Medicine and Human Factors Engineering at the Fordham Health Sciences Library, Wright State University School of Medicine, provides an unparalleled scientific resource and data base for physicians, life scientists, engineers and others working at the leading edge of human progress, especially those in the areas of aviation, space and advanced ground transportation. The Collection is regularly consulted by those currently pioneering these fields and is an invaluable source of information constituting the base upon which future progress is being constructed. I met Dr. McFarland in 1958 and came to know him -well. I observed first-hand his pioneering concepts in human factors, enhanced immeasurably by his articulate communications. Starting in the 1930's, he almost singlehandedly launched the human factors effort in aviation, directly collecting data on airline pilot fatigue and other major operational flight safety aspects. Folio-wing Dr. McFarland's untimely death in 1976, an event -widely recognized as taking from us the father of aerospace human factors, his wife, Mrs. Emily McFarland, decided to deed his library and scientific papers to Wright State University School of Medicine, Fordham Health Sciences Library.

  • Jerome Kagan's
    LEDE AND NUT GRAF Jerome Kagan‟s “Aha!” moment came with Baby 19. It was 1989, and Kagan had just begun a major longitudinal study of inborn temperament and its long-term effects – a study that would eventually include 498 children and would follow them from infancy to young adulthood. He believed that some of the four-months-olds in the study would respond to their environment more intensely than other babies did, and that their “high-reactive” nature would play out in the way they grew up, causing them to become high-strung, shy, and prone to anxiety. Eager to test his hypothesis, he grabbed the videotapes of the first 50 babies in the study, looking for high-reactive infants. The first eighteen babies looked perfectly ordinary. They babbled when their mothers spoke to them. They focused on a face that emitted words in an amalgam of three voices, designed to be what Kagan called “discrepant but not terrifying.” They stared at a mobile cluttered with dancing Winnie the Pooh characters. In response to all these novel stimuli, the babies moved their arms and legs a bit, but mostly they just watched placidly and occasionally smiled. But Baby 19 looked different. As Kagan described her when we met recently in his office at Harvard, Baby 19 was in constant motion when exposed to the same stimuli. When her mother spoke to her, she moved her arms and legs fitfully. When the face with the dissonant voices appeared, she moved even more, and had a furrowed expression on her face.
