Page 1 of 13 DEVELOPMETNAL SCREENING AND THEORIES DEVELOPMENT CMED 212 reorganization of neuronal circuits also play important roles in brain plasticity. Increase or decrease in synaptic activity result in persistent increases or decreases in synaptic strength. 📖 Thus experience (environment) has a direct effect on the physical and therefore functional properties of the brain. Children with different talents and temperaments (already a combination of genetics and environment) further elicit different stimuli from their varying environments. 📖 Periods of rapid development generally correlate with periods of great changes in synaptic numbers in relevant areas of the brain. Accordingly, sensory deprivation during the time when synaptic changes should be occurring has profound effects. The effects of strabismus leading to amblyopia occur quickly during early childhood; patching the eye with good vision to reverse amblyopia is less effective in late childhood. Early experience is particularly important because learning proceeds more efficiently along established synaptic pathways. However, some plasticity of the brain continues into adolescence, with further development of the prefrontal cortex, which is important in decision-making, future planning, and emotional control; neurogenesis persists in adulthood in certain areas of the brain. 📖 Early traumatic experiences modify the expression of stress mediators (the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis) and neurotransmitters, leading to changes in brain connectivity and function. These effects may be persistent, leading to alterations and dysfunction in the stress response throughout life. Chronic stress has negative effects on cognitive functions, including memory and emotional regulation. Positive and negative experiences do not determine the ultimate outcome but shift the probabilities by influencing the child’s ability to respond adaptively to future stimuli. 📖 There is increasing evidence that positive experiences and relationships can buffer the impact of negative or traumatic experience and toxic stress. In fact, there is a recent call for pediatrics to recognize and promote relational health as a protective factor. By promoting positive relationships, labeled safe, stable, and nurturing relationships (SSNRs) within primary care, healthcare providers can work with families to build relational health, thereby combatting the deleterious effects of toxic stress and promoting resilience. Pediatric care can do this by employing a public health approach, partnering with families and communities, to build healthy relationships by connecting to and integrating with primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention programs. This can include embedding interventions within primary care and creating robust referral Figure 3. Infographic on Epigenetics networks to connect families to needed services.

Two influences identified: a) Temperament a) Attachment 📖 Temperament describes the stable, early appearing 📖 Attachment refers to a biologically determined tendency of individual variations in behavioral dimensions, including a young child to seek proximity to the parent during times of emotionality (crying, laughing, sulking), activity level, attention, stress and to the relationship that allows securely attached sociability, and persistence.

The one who will be constantly attended to will have secure attachment. F. Social And Eccologic Factors 📖 Contemporary models of child development recognize the Figure 4.

Furthermore, the population. The remainder of the variance is attributed to the presence of nurturing and stable caregivers, in or out of the child’s environment. Maternal prenatal stress and anxiety is nuclear family, can help to buffer the impact of a parent who associated with child temperament, possibly through stress may struggle with mental illness, substance use, or other hormones.

Infants in hospitals and at the center (with associated risks and protective factors) and Page 3 of 13 DEVELOPMETNAL SCREENING AND THEORIES DEVELOPMENT CMED 212 the larger society at the periphery. Understanding the child’s greater ecosystem is important to understand their family and the context of their growth. Factors such as poverty, systemic racism, access to education, transportation, food, housing, parental employment, and local support systems are influential factors in a child’s well-being. Whenever possible, identifying community supports and assets for families can help promote health and development. II.

Figure 8. Psychosexual Theory a) Oral Stage (0 to 1 year) Erogenous zone: mouth The energy or driving force is fixated on the baby’s mouth, that’s why we call it the oral stage. The primary source of interaction occurs in the mouth. This is resolved by sucking, biting, and that is what an infant usually does. And that is how issues/conflicts are shown and resolved (when the baby is fed or given a certain comfort and Figure 5. Prevalence of Developmental-Behavioral Disorders trust given by the parent). and Other Chronic Medical Conditions in Children The conflict will arise when the baby is weening and dependent on the caregiver. 🗨In private practice, we do not always deal with these developmental disorders because they are usually often 📖 During the oral stage, Freud argues that oral activities such referred to developmental pediatricians especially if there’s as sucking, and biting gives a child gratification as well as concern raised by the parents. nourishment. Conflict centers on the nature and extent of oral gratification. III. CLASSIC STAGE THEORIES o Early weaning (cessation of breastfeeding) can lead to frustration. Excessive gratification can lead an infant to expect that it will routinely get anything they want. Oral traits include dependency, gullibility, and excessive optimism/pessimism (depends on the child experience on gratification). He theorized that adults with oral fixation would experience exaggerated desires for oral activities, such as smoking, Figure 6.

B. Psychoanalytic Theory: Psychosocial b) Stage 2: Autonomy Vs. Shame and Doubt Figure 9. Psychosocial stages of development Erik Erikson was an ego psychologist who developed one of the most popular and influential theories of development. Figure 11.

Let them control over things. 📄 It is important for them to gain control over themselves, for them to gain confidence in their ability to do things. 📄 According to Erickson, the child who successfully gained control over themselves is secured and confident. While those who didn’t, will feel a sense of self-doubt and inadequacy. 📖 During this period, the child’s relationship with parents and friends can encourage development of self-direction and initiative, or feelings of shame ang guilt. Children at this stage Figure 13. Industry Vs. Inferiority (6-11 years old) should develop feelings of self-control over physical functions and a sense of independence. Children become capable of performing more complex tasks. As a result, they start to master new skills. c) Stage 3: Initiative And Guilt Children who are commended end encouraged by parents/teachers develop the feeling of competence and belief in their abilities Those who receive little/no encouragement from their parents/teachers/peers will doubt their abilities. 📄 School-age psychosocial development o Psychosocial Conflict: Industry vs inferiority ▪ “How can I be good or bad?” o Basic virtue: Competence ▪ “Important event: School” 📄During this stage, the child become capable of performing more complex tasks. As a result, they are motivated to master new skills. Those children who are encourage and commended by parents or teachers, will feel competence and believe on their abilities. And those who receive little encouragement from their parents will become doubtful on their abilities and self. Figure 12.

So, they will now take initiative to try new things. A child with initiative and guidance from parents will have a sense of resilience that as they failed to do what they want; they won’t feel bad about it and know that it is okay to fail and would just try again. While the one who didn’t have will feel bad about themselves when they fail. 📄 And it is the role of the primary caregivers to peak their interests on trying out what they want to do. Success on this stage will lead to a sense of purpose, and failure to overcome will lead to feeling of guilt. 📖The child begins to assert control over the environment and strive to master adult skills.
