How does the maturation of the prefrontal lobe during middle childhood influence cognitive development?

  • It fosters improved planning and problem-solving capabilities. (correct)
  • It results in a decreased capacity for systematic thinking.
  • It primarily enhances gross motor skills and physical coordination.

Study Notes

  • Ectomorphs are skinny and fast.
  • Mesomorphs are muscular, athletic, and have an hourglass figure.
  • Endomorphs are big boned, strong, and have a pear shape.
  • RICE method involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation.
  • Use the RICE method to care for sprains and strains.
  • Presidential youth physical fitness tests involve:
    • Curls ups (as many as possible in 60 seconds)
    • Shuttle run
    • Endurance run/walk (how long to run/walk a mile)
    • Pull-ups till failure
    • Sit and reach
  • Intrinsic motivation comes from personal satisfaction or enjoyment.
  • Extrinsic motivation comes from external rewards like trophies or praise.
  • Plyometrics are exercises that involve explosive movements like box jumps.
  • Accidents are the number 1 cause of death for early childhood (ages 0 to 8) because parents overestimate cognitive abilities and underestimate motor abilities.
  • The cerebellum is responsible for movement.
  • The corpus callosum is a band of fibers connecting the left and right sides of the brain, and allows kids to think more systematically and get a complete picture.
  • The prefrontal lobe grows dramatically during middle childhood and allows for better planning and problem-solving.
  • A growth spurt involves an increase in bone size, but muscles and tendons haven't caught up, causing pain.
  • Puberty lasts 4 years, with girls starting around 11 to 13 years old and boys starting around 13 to 15 years old.
  • Girls stop growing around 18 to 19 years and boys continue until their early twenties.
