Answer to Question 1

Because development is organized, sensitive periods play a meaningful role in any discussion of normal and abnormal behavior. Sensitive periods are windows of time during which environmental influences on development, both good and bad, are enhanced. Sensitive periods can be enhanced opportunities for learning but are not the only opportunities; change can take place at other times.
