Typical Development
Unique, uneven, continuous, and not always visible.
What is growth/development?
Infants with this attachment style are unable to use either internal or external means to regulate their internal states.
A kinship unit that, even when its members do not share a common household, may exist as a social reality.
What is a family?
The process in which the brain removes neurons and synapses that it does not need. This usually takes place when a person is 2–10 years old.
What is synaptic pruning?
These conditions begin during the developmental period, may impact day-to-day functioning, and usually last throughout a person’s lifetime.
What are developmental Disabilities?
A startle response to sudden movement or loud sound, a reflex inhibited between 2-6 months in typically developing babies.
This type of processing involves perceiving things based on your prior experiences and knowledge.
This group may experience over-identification, embarrassment, resentment, guilt, confusion, or pressure to excel as a result of having a family member with a disability.
Who are siblings?
This concept occurs when perceptions of extreme stress of trauma cause the limbic system of the brain to take over. When this occurs, we experience emotions with intensity and temporarily lose control of our actions.
What is "Flipping the Lid?"
Children with this may have trouble paying attention, controlling impulsive behaviors, or have an increased need for activity.
What is ADHD?
The age at which a typically developing child is expected to stand on one foot for 10 seconds or longer, hop, do somersaults, and swing or climb.
What is five years old?
A class of neurons that modulate their activity both when an individual executes a specific motor act and when they observe the same or similar act performed by another individual.
What are mirror neurons?
This stage of the parental journey is marked by thoughts of the child not being the one who was wanted, feelings of inadequacy, searching for answers/mistakes, and wanting to believe the child they were supposed to have is still there.
What is the Shock and Panic stage?
What is poverty?
A group of disorders that affect a person’s ability to move and maintain balance and posture.
What is Cerebral Palsy?
The age when a typically developing child is expected to take turns in games, get upset with major changes in routine, and dress/undress themselves.
What is three years old?
People with this type of attachment style tend to be empathetic and able to set appropriate boundaries, to feel safe, stable, and more satisfied in their close relationships.
What is secure/optimal attachment?
A phenomenon marked by sadness, pain, and anger. Often triggered by major milestones, birthdays, or holidays.
What is chronic sorrow?
Potentially traumatic events that occur in childhood (0-17 years).
This involves problems with general mental abilities that affect functioning in two areas:
1. Intellectual functioning (such as learning, problem-solving, judgment).
2. Adaptive functioning (activities of daily life such as communication and independent living).
What is an Intellectual Disability?
The age when a typically developing child begins to play simple pretend games, will begin to explore alone but stay close to the caregiver, and likes to hand things to others as play.
What is eighteen months old?
This type of attachment may develop in children who tend to receive love and affection inconsistently or can't rely on their parents being available.
This parent-professional phase is marked by both parties similarly seeing the child, inquiry and listening, and the child being central to the relationship.
What is Phase III: Collaboration, Creative Partnering?
During this stage of development, the limbic system develops faster than the prefrontal cortex.
What is adolescence?
A genetic disorder caused when abnormal cell division results in extra genetic material from chromosome 21.
What is Down Syndrome?
