- Anonymous grading is implemented to eliminate bias, with student identities hidden during grading and revealed post-grade release.
- Last submission for late work is due by December 8th; no late submissions accepted for exams or community contributions.
Periods of Development
- Prenatal Development: From conception to pregnancy.
- Infancy and Toddlerhood (0-2 years): Significant changes occur; infants have excellent hearing but poor vision, and toddlers begin walking.
- Early Childhood (3-5 years): Language development, increased independence, and fear of disapproval are key characteristics.
- Middle Childhood (6-11 years): Focus shifts to academic accomplishments and refinement of motor skills alongside developing social relationships.
- Adolescence (12 years and older): Marked by puberty, cognitive changes, and exploration of love, fear, and a sense of invincibility.
Principles of Development
- Cognitive Development includes perception, intelligence, memory, problem-solving, language, and wisdom.
- Physical Development encompasses fine motor skills, sensory development, nervous system maturation, height, and weight changes.
- Social-emotional Development addresses self-perception, relationships, and emotional regulation.
Research Methods
- Observational Studies: Participants are watched and recorded devoid of interference.
- Experiments: Verify hypotheses in a controlled setting, involving independent and dependent variables, samples, experimental, and control groups.
- Case Studies: Detailed analysis of a specific instance or event.
- Surveys: Use questionnaires and Likert scales for data collection.
- Longitudinal Research: Measures the same individuals across different times.
- Cross-sectional Research: Surveys various groups at one point in time.
- Sequential Research: Combines longitudinal and cross-sectional methods with different groups starting at the same age.
Imposter Syndrome
- Characterized by feelings of being a fraud, where individuals believe they do not deserve accomplishments and may avoid risks due to perfectionism or comparison to others.

- John B. Watson: Established classical conditioning’s role in emotional responses (Little Albert experiment).
- B.F. Skinner: Promoted operant conditioning; emphasized reinforcement over punishment.
- Albert Bandura: Proposed social learning theory, highlighting imitation over conditioning.
- Jean Piaget: Cognitive development theory proposing four stages: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational.
- Lev Vygotsky: Sociocultural theory emphasizing guided participation and the zone of proximal development.

- Cognitive empathy improves in adolescence, allowing better perspective-taking and concern for others.
Adolescent Health
- Adolescents require about 9.5 hours of sleep but typically only get 7.5 hours; their circadian clocks can cause shifts in sleep patterns.

- Personal Fable: View of oneself as unique.
- Invincibility Fable: Feeling of immunity to harm.
