Study Notes
Infant Motor Development: Factors and Cultural Differences
- Preferential looking procedure: 4-month-olds showed preference for synchronized visual and auditory stimuli
- Reflexes: innate, adaptive actions in response to stimulation, most disappear by 2 months
- Reflexes and neurodevelopment: absent or persistent reflexes may indicate neurological problems
- Motor milestones: predictable sequence with individual variation, crawling not considered a milestone
- Cultural differences in motor development: differences in sitting and independent sitting
- Motor development encouragement: cultural practices affect opportunities and encouragement for motor development
- Diapers and walking: infants show more mature walking when naked versus wearing a diaper
- Implications of cultural differences: unintended consequences in motor development due to cultural practices
- Differences in crawling: individual variation in crawling styles due to environment and genetics
- Current theories of motor development: complex interplay between neural development, strength, perceptual skills, and motivation
- Role of weight change in motor development: weight change influences disappearance and resumption of stepping reflex
- Role of motivation: infants are intrinsically motivated to explore and learn, persist despite failing
