Study Notes
Newborn Reflexes
- Root Reflex: Newborn turns head toward a touch on their cheek, aiding feeding.
- Suck Reflex: Sucking motions initiated when something touches the roof of the baby's mouth.
- Moro Reflex: Startle reflex triggered by noise or movement; baby extends arms, arches back, then brings arms together.
- Tonic Neck Reflex: Known as the "fencing position"; when the baby turns its head to one side, the arm on that side stretches out while the opposite arm bends.
- Grasp Reflex: Baby closes their hand around an object placed in their palm.
- Babinski Reflex: Response to a firm stroke on the sole of the foot; big toe moves upward, other toes fan out.
Piaget's Stages of Development
- Sensorimotor (Birth-2 years): Infants explore the world through their senses and actions; development of object permanence.
- Preoperational (2-7 years): Children begin using symbols like words and images but lack logical reasoning.
- Concrete Operational (7-11 years): Development of logical thinking about concrete events; grasping conservation and classification.
- Formal Operational (12 years and up): Development of abstract reasoning and hypothetical thinking.
Teams and Professional Roles
- Multidisciplinary: Professionals work independently, focusing on their area of expertise, with minimal collaboration.
- Interdisciplinary: Professionals collaborate to develop integrated goals, keeping separate evaluations and services.
- Transdisciplinary: Roles and expertise are shared among team members, with one primary provider implementing strategies from multiple disciplines.
Established vs. At-Risk
- Established Risk: Diagnosed medical conditions (e.g., premature birth, Down syndrome, hearing loss) with a high probability of leading to developmental delays.
- At-Risk: Children who might be susceptible to developmental delays due to factors like family history or environment.
Gestures and Communication
- Deictic Gestures (8-12 months): Indicate or direct attention to an object, event, or location in the child's environment. This includes showing, giving, or pointing.
- Representational Gestures (12-16 months): Represent specific meanings or actions, often visually similar to the object or action they represent (e.g., iconic and symbolic gestures).
Stages of Communication
- Perlocutionary (Birth-8 months): Pre-intentional; caregivers interpret behaviors (like crying or cooing) as meaningful.
- Illocutionary (8-12 months): Intentional communication through gestures, vocalizations, and eye gaze.
- Locutionary (12-18 months): Use of words to communicate with intent, often paired with gestures initially.
Speech/Language Development Milestones
- Specific milestones in receptive (understanding) and expressive (producing) language are outlined for various age ranges (birth to 36 months), separated by the ages 3 months to 3 years and broken down into receptive and expressive language milestones for each period.
Assessment and Guidelines
- Assessment: Use standardized tools, caregiver interviews, and naturalistic observations to gather comprehensive data, involving families in the process to identify priorities and concerns.
- Assessment Content: Developmental history and caregiver concerns, direct observations of child's communication and play behaviors, strengths and areas of need in receptive and expressive language, social skills, and motor development, and recommendations for intervention goals and strategies.
- Assessment Tools: DAYC-2, REEL-4, PLS-5, BDI-3 discussed.
Language Intervention Strategies
- Guiding Considerations: Focus on specific needs, incorporate into routines, and be responsive/directive/blended (responsive, directive, and blended).
- Responsive Strategies: Focus on following the child's lead and providing natural, contingent responses.
- Directive Strategies: Structured, adult-led activities targeting specific goals, often using modeling and prompting.
- Blended Approach: Combines responsive and directive strategies.
- Interactive/Verbal/Environmental: Encourage turn-taking, joint attention, and shared activities, including use of language to support comprehension and encourage new sounds/words, use of imitation to build social connections and encouraging new sounds/words. Using simpler and repetitive language, and provide choices.
Child-Directed Speech
- CDS adapts language to the child's developmental level, interests, and communication style to foster effective communication and learning. This includes elements such as simplified language, higher pitch, slower speech and repetition, exaggerated expressions, and engagement with child’s interests.
