    Study Notes

    Brain Development

    • The brain reaches adult size by approximately age 7.
    • Frontal lobe development continues from ages 10-12, leading to improvements in logic, planning, and memory.
    • Prefrontal cortex maturation during this time results in an increased attention span.
    • School-aged children demonstrate better planning and coordination due to the development of both brain hemispheres, influencing emotions, physical abilities, and intellectual capabilities.
    • Increased myelination, the fatty insulation around axons that speeds up nerve impulses, improves reaction time.

    Myelination

    • The more myelination present, the faster the brain can function.
    • The hippocampus, crucial for memory, undergoes heightened myelination between ages 6-12.

    Food Intolerance and Allergies

    • Approximately 3 million children under 18 are allergic to at least one food, including peanuts, milk, eggs, soy, wheat, and shellfish.
    • Food allergies occur when a protein triggers an immune response, releasing antibodies, histamine, and other defenders that attack foreign bodies.
    • Symptoms can include itchy skin, hives, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, and nausea.
    • Some children can outgrow food allergies, particularly those to wheat, milk, eggs, or soy.
    • Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening allergic reaction causing breathing difficulties, swelling in the mouth and throat, decreased blood pressure, shock, or even death.
    • Food intolerance, unlike allergies, does not involve an immune response but rather a physical reaction to certain foods, often due to the body's inability to digest certain components.
    • Lactose intolerance, common in children, is characterized by the inability to produce enough lactase, the enzyme needed to digest lactose in milk products.
    • Symptoms of lactose intolerance typically involve the gastrointestinal system, including bloating, abdominal pain, gas, nausea, and diarrhea.
    • Managing food intolerance involves dietary changes and avoidance of triggering foods.

    Exercise, Physical Fitness, and Sports

    • Team sports offer opportunities for children to develop social skills, improve athletically, and experience competition.
    • Self-efficacy, or the belief in one's abilities, is crucial in sports participation.
    • Optimal outcomes occur when perceived ability aligns slightly higher than actual ability.

    Family Stress Model

    • This model links financial troubles to parental depressed moods, leading to marital issues and poor parenting practices that ultimately affect children's well-being.
    • Economic pressure initially impacts parents, contributing to interparental conflict, followed by parent-child problems, and ultimately, negative child outcomes.

    One-Child Families

    • One-child families make up 20% of American households.
    • Only children can experience advantages, including higher self-esteem, motivation, academic performance, educational attainment, and closer relationships with parents.
    • However, they may face challenges in peer acceptance.
    • Research on one-child families is particularly prominent in China due to the one-child policy.

    Adoptive Families

    • The availability of healthy babies for adoption in the U.S. is limited, leading to an increase in international adoptions and children with developmental challenges.
    • Adopted children and adolescents may experience more learning and emotional difficulties, possibly due to pre-adoption environmental factors or less family harmony resulting from differences between the child and adoptive parents.
    • However, most adopted children fare well in the long run, requiring supportive parenting and knowledge of their heritage.

    Same-Sex Parents

    • Same-sex parent families are increasing in number.
    • Children raised by same-sex parents are similar to those raised by heterosexual parents in terms of mental health, peer relations, and sexual orientation.
    • They may demonstrate heightened empathy and tolerance.

    Divorce

    • Approximately 1 million children experience parental divorce annually.
    • Children of divorce are at increased risk for short- and long-term psychological, behavioral, academic, and relationship challenges compared to children living with both biological parents.
    • However, most children of divorce do not experience significant, long-lasting difficulties.

    Theories of Divorce

    • Absence Theory: Children suffer due to the absence of one parent.
    • Economic Disadvantage Theory: Lower well-being of children of divorce is attributed to financial hardship following divorce.
    • Conflict Theory: The adversity children experience in divorce is related to household hostility present before and during the divorce process. This theory is widely supported and suggests that outcomes improve post-separation.

    Child Characteristics and Divorce

    • Age: Younger children exhibit more visible distress due to difficulty understanding the situation and feelings of guilt. Older children and teens, while understanding the situation, may experience academic failure, poor parent relationships, family withdrawal, and acting out.
    • Temperament: Children with difficult temperaments struggle more, potentially leading to coercive parenting due to a lack of "goodness of fit" between the child's temperament and the caregiver's style.

    Factors Affecting the Impact of Divorce

    • Short-term consequences: Grief over losses, reduced standard of living, and adjusting to transitions.
    • Long-term consequences: Lower education and occupational status (potentially due to economic factors rather than divorce itself), improved relationships with the custodial parent, greater emotional independence in sons, increased anxiety in romantic relationships, and the custodial parent's adjustment as a major influencing factor on children's outcomes.

    Peer Relationships

    • Sociometric Assessment: This method measures social acceptance and rejection among peers.
    • Common Sociometric Categories:
      • Popular: Well-liked and receive few negative nominations.
      • Rejected: Receive many negative nominations.
      • Neglected: Receive few positive or negative nominations; go unnoticed.
      • Controversial: Receive both many positive and negative nominations.

    Bilingualism

    • 75% of bilingual students in the U.S. are Hispanic.
    • Simultaneous Bilingualism: Learning two languages from birth.
      • Phonology: Retain the ability to hear phonological contrasts for both languages.
      • Lexicon: May appear to violate the Mutual Exclusivity Assumption, accepting two words for the same object if they belong to different languages. May have smaller vocabularies in each language individually but a larger combined vocabulary.
      • Grammar: May lag behind monolingual peers in grammatical development.
    • Sequential Bilingualism: Learning a second language after acquiring the first.
      • Acquisition can be complex, taking years and involving errors that resemble the first language.
      • Factors that influence second language learning include phonological memory, personality, motivation, and age.

    Learning to Read

    • Phonics-based approach (Bottom-up): Emphasizes individual components of reading, independent of context. Focuses on sounding out words and memorizing small, frequent words like "the", "in", and "and".
    • Whole-language approach (Top-down): Emphasizes visual retrieval, goals, background knowledge, and expectations to understand text.
