Attachment
• An emotional tie with another person
resulting in seeking closeness
• Children develop strong attachments to
their parents and caregivers.
• Body contact, familiarity, and
responsiveness all contribute to
attachment.
Factors affecting attachment:
-Neglect, abuse, and
deprivation adversely affect
attachment, however,
differences in normal childrearing practices have no
affect
• Daycare does not affect
attachment
• Temperament, chronic
stress, and rejection can
affect attachment
• Cultural expectations can
also play a role
Harry Harlow
• Researched how
body contact relates
to attachment
• The monkeys had to chose
between a cloth mother or a wire
mother that provided food.
• The monkeys spent most of their time by the cloth
mother…even if the other “mother” gave food!
Parenting Styles
•No one type fits all
•Different results for
different children
Authoritarian Parenting
• Low in warmth,
discipline is strict and
sometimes physical.
• Communication high
from parent to child
and low from child to
parent
• Maturity expectations
are high.
• Results- withdrawn &
distrustful child
Permissive Parenting
• High in warmth
but rarely
discipline
• Communication is
low from parent
to child but high
from child to
parent.
• Expectations of maturity
are low.
• Results- Child with little selfcontrol, dependent on others
Authoritative Parenting
• High in warmth
with moderate
discipline
• High in
communication
and negotiating
• Parents set and
explain rules.
• Maturity expectations
are moderate.

socially responsible child
Role Plays
• In your groups you will
receive a scenario. Using a
role play, describe how an
Authoritative, an
Authoritarian and a
Permissive parent would
respond
Language
Language
• From cooing to
communication
– In first months,
babies are
responsive to
pitch , intensity
and sound of
language; people
talk to babies w/
more varied pitch
and intonation

“MOTHERESE”
Language
– By 4-6 months, babies
have learned basic
sounds of their
language, and over time
lose ability to perceive
speech sounds in
another language
– Between 6 months to 1 year, babies
enter the babbling phase; infants
become more familiar with the sound
structure of their native language
Starting
around 11
months,
babies
develop
repertoire of
symbolic
gestures;
gestures spur
language
learning
– Between 18 months and 2 years, 2 and 3
word combinations are produced; 1st
combinations have a telegraphic quality
Noam Chomsky –
Is Language
Innate?
• Chomsky observed that children can figure out a
sentence’s deep structure from the surface
structure, therefore the brain must contain a
language acquisition device that enables children
to develop a language if they are exposed to it.
Language (Chomsky –Innate?)
– Children all over the world go through
similar stages of linguistics development
– Children combine words in
ways that adults never would,
so they could not be simply
imitating adults
•Moral Development
• Heinz Dilemma
• After listening to Heinz’s
story, write down what
you think he should have
done and WHY
Lawrence Kohlberg
• The 3 Levels of
Moral
Development
• Moral level is
determined by
answers people
give to
hypothetical moral
dilemmas
Level One – Preconventional
morality (self interest up to 10)
• This level is characterized by the
desire to avoid punishment or gain
reward
–Stage 1 – fear punishment for
disobedience
–Stage 2 – in their best interest to obey
Level 2 – Conventional morality
(10 through Adult)
• This Level is characterized by
the Primary concern of fitting
in and playing the role of a good
citizen
• People have a strong desire to
follow the rules and laws.
• Typical of most adults
– Stage 3 – based on conformity and loyalty
– Stage 4 – a “law-and-order” orientation
Level 3 – Postconventional
(“principled”) morality
(Adolescence- through Adulthood)
• This level characterized by an
appreciation of Universal ethical
principles that represent the rights or
obligations of all people
• Most adults do not reach this level.
– Stage 5 – values and laws are relative and
change; recognition that people hold differing
standards
– Stage 6 – standard based on universal human
rights
• Limitations to theory
1.Stage theory tends to over look
cultural and educational
influences on reasoning
2.People’s moral reasoning is
often inconsistent across
situations
3.Moral reasoning and behavior
are often unrelated
