Cognitive Development
Infant's stable decrease in attention to the repeating stimulus
What is Habituation?
The social environment in which infants grow up
What is social context?
This is the perception of a continuous stimuli as discontinuous
True or False: given what language you learn in a year, an undiagnosed hearing impairment can have little to no consequences
What is False?
True or False: New Stages of speech development are marked by the appearance of some new vocalization
What is True?
The understanding that objects continue to exist even when they are out of sight or not directly interacting with them
What is Object Permanence?
This is referred to as baby talk, child-directed speech, or infant-directed speech known for it's higher pitch, variable pitch, exaggerated stress, and slower rate
What is Motherese?
These are two preferences a child has at brith due to prenatal exposure via bone conduction
What is preference for native language and mother's voice?
This is the age that an infant becomes attuned to their native language
What is 12 months or older?
This is the language stage in which a child can conversationally babble
What is Stage 5.) Jargon
It is generally said that a child starts developing this skill at 9 to 10 months randomly at first before gradually becoming more systematic
What is Categorization?
This is when a caregiver and child direct their attention to the same object at the same time
What is Joint Attention?
This refers to an unconscious cognitive process in which repeated patterns or regularities are extracted from the sensory environment. This is also known as pattern recognition
What is Statistical Learning?
True or False: it becomes more and more difficult for a child to differentiate between non L1 sounds once they hit 5 years old
What is False?
This language stage is which an infant tests their vocal apparatus through experimental play with sounds
What is Stage 3.) Vocal Play?
It is said at this age for a baby, the environment can determine the extent of an infant's attention
What is 2 months old?
Under this context, screen time is said to be beneficial for a child's learning
What is social interactive/meaningful context?
This is the reason why word segmentation is crucial in language development
What is crucial so meaning can be assigned to words?
This age range is when a child can discriminate any speech sound in any language
What is infancy or 0-6 months old?
True or False: an example of reduplicated babbling is if a baby says "mama"
What is True?
These are all the things a child has at birth (list at least 3)
What is can discriminate contrasts? (Other options: can follow movement, has 3D view of world, sensitivity to face like objects, preference for inanimate objects, no voluntary motor behavior, vocal tract difference)
This is a common issue most studies on child language develop have that makes their findings not fully reliable
What is most studies focus on white middle class families/not enough diverse findings?
This is the predicted age range when a baby understands that others have thoughts and goals as well.
What is 9 to 15 months?
This percentage of infants are born with a hearing impairment
These are all 5 stages of Babbling in order of occurrence
What is Stage 1.) Reflexive Vocalization, Stage 2.) Cooing and Laughter, Stage 3.) Vocal Play, Stage 4.) Canonical Babbling, and Stage 5.) Jargon?
