5a)In Alex’s community, babies are often placed on the ground, and spend much of their time with unrestricted movement. In Jesse’s community, babies are carried or held much of the time during their first year of life. Research on motor development suggests that: Select one: i. Alex’s baby might walk earlier than Jesse’s baby, and Jesse’s baby may miss certain motor milestones ii. Alex’s baby might walk earlier than Jesse’s baby, but both are expected to reach all motor milestones iii. Both babies are likely to walk at roughly the same time iv. Any differences in when the two babies start to walk will be based solely on genetic differences, not the experiences they have

Question

5a)In Alex’s community, babies are often placed on the ground, and spend much of their time with unrestricted movement. In Jesse’s community, babies are carried or held much of the time during their first year of life. Research on motor development suggests that:

Select one:

i.

Alex’s baby might walk earlier than Jesse’s baby, and Jesse’s baby may miss certain motor milestones

ii.

Alex’s baby might walk earlier than Jesse’s baby, but both are expected to reach all motor milestones

iii.

Both babies are likely to walk at roughly the same time

iv.

Any differences in when the two babies start to walk will be based solely on genetic differences, not the experiences they have

5b)A study presented in your textbook showed that infants could learn the association between their kicking movements and the movement of a mobile attached to their foot with a string. This study suggested that infants could retain that association over weeks or months, depending on their age, and that long-term memory strengthens with age. Information processing theory might suggest that:

Select one:

i.

Children move through discrete developmental stages, and which stage they are in dictates how long they can retain associations in memory 

ii.

Neural maturation may be one factor that explains how infants are able to retain associations over longer and longer periods of time

iii.

Because memory development is so critical to humans, infants have an innate specialized learning mechanism to support contingent learning

iv.

All of the above

5c)Arielle watches her older brother making a sandcastle with a shovel and bucket. The next day at the park, Arielle scoops sand into a bucket and tries to tip it upside down. What type of learning is Arielle demonstrating? 

Select one:

i.

Statistical learning

ii.

Classical conditioning

iii.

Observational learning

iv.

Instrumental conditioning
