Question 1
Frank argues that early experiences are very important because these "early lessons" shape the way the brain develops. Frank's view that experience influences brain development is the central idea behind the concept of:
◦ synaptic transmission
◦ neuromodulation
◦ habituation
◦ brain plasticity
Question 2
Generalizing from research conducted by Karen Adolph, if you observed an 8-month-old infant and a 14-month-old infant attempt a somewhat dangerous motor task (such as climbing up a stair), which of these two infants should you expect to be more cautious and more aware of the risk?
◦ the 8-month-old infant would be more cautious
◦ the 14-month-old infant would be more cautious
◦ These two infants would be equally cautious, but the 8-month-old would be more aware of the risks involved.
◦ These two infants would be equally cautious, but the 14-month-old would be more aware of the risks involved.
