Answer to Question 1

If the student applies Erikson's theory correctly here, they would mention that
autonomy is the desired outcome; at the same time the child needs some sense of
shame in order to function within appropriate social boundaries. In cultures where
social needs outweigh the needs of the individual, a sense of social shame is
necessary and will therefore be nurtured. In cultures where individual needs are the
priority, a sense of autonomy will be nurtured. Other factors that influence this will be
the child's own temperament as well as the temperament of the caregiver.

Answer to Question 2

Synchrony is a coordinated interaction between infant and caregiver that develops
through ongoing experiences. Infant and caregiver learn to read each other's
signals, expressions, and gestures. It is the root of attachment and helps infants
begin to learn to take turns and pay attention. Infants need responsive caregivers to
develop normally; little or no synchrony makes it difficult for infants to connect to
people and form attachments.
