Social age refers to the social understandings and significance that are attached to chronological age.
Psychological Biological Chronological Social( Psychological, Biological, Chronological, Social ) age is how old one feels, acts, and behaves, and is thus not necessarily equal to chronological age.
age is a measure of how well or poorly your body is functioning relative to your actual calendar age.
Plasticity Stability( Plasticity, Stability ): whether we develop into someone different from who we are at an earlier point in development (change is likely)

Continuous
Discontinuous
________ theory: the way we change is completely different from one stage to the next
Nature refers to an organisms biological inheritance.
Stability Plasticity( Stability, Plasticity ): is shaped by early experience or genetics; unlikely to change (to what degree do we become older renditions of our earlier selves)
Nature refers to environmental experiences.

According to B.F. Skinner, through ________ __________ the consequences of a behavior produce changes in the the probability of the behavior's occurrence.

Information Processing
Badura's research relied heavily on _________ ___________, which occurs through observing what others do.

social learning
Bandura's model of learning and development includes all of the following:
history
behavior
the person/cognition
environment
________________ holds that behavior, environment, and cognition are the key factors in development.
Social Cognitive Theory
information-processing theory
Operant conditioning
Learning Theory
Bronfrenbrenner's holds that development reflects the influence of several environmental systems.
The microsystem macrosystem exosystem mesosystem chronosystem( microsystem, macrosystem, exosystem, mesosystem, chronosystem ) is the setting in which the individual lives. This includes: family, peers, school, and neighborhood.
The __________ involves relations between microsystems or connections between contexts. This includes school experiences, church experiences, family experiences , and peer experience.
macrosystem
microsystem
mesosystem
exosystem
chronosystem
The consists of links links between individual's immediate context and social setting in which the individual does not play an active role. (Ex. mother's experience at work. promotion = more travel, increased parental conflict, changes of interaction with child)
The involves the culture in which individuals live. (The cultural contexts involve the socioeconomic status of the person and/or family, ethnicity or race and living in a still developing or a third world country. For example, being born to a poor family makes a person work harder every day.)
The chronosystem consists of the patterning of environmental events and transitions over the life course. (Ex. Divorce)
John Watson's theory involves learning a new behavior via the process of association. In simple terms two stimuli are linked together to produce a new learned response in a person or animal.
The ____________ stage is where children begin to go beyond simply connecting sensory info with physical action and represent the world with words, images, and drawings.
preoperational
formal operational
concrete operational
sensorimotor
Piaget's Four Stages of Cognitive Development include:
Sensorimotor (0-2 yrs)
Concrete Operational (7-11 yrs)
Formal Operational (11-adulthood)
Preoperational (2-7 yrs)
Sensory Operational (0-2 yrs)
The ______________ stage is the stage where infants construct an understanding of the world by coordinating sensory experiences. (hearing, seeing)
Vygotsky's theory stresses the fundamental role of social interaction in the development of cognition.
The _____________ stage, individuals move beyond concrete experiences and think in abstract and more logical terms. (think about ideal circumstances)
The ______________ stage where children can preform operations that involve objects and they can reason logically when the reasoning can be applied to specific or concrete examples.

Latent Phase of Labor is in the second stage of labor.
The is the 2nd stage of Labor.
Uncontrolled bleeding (postpartum hemorrhage) is the leading cause of maternal mortality around the world.

deoxyribonucleaic acid: strings of amino acid pairs; substance of which genes and chromosomes are made.
units of hereditary information composed of segments of DNA located along the chromosomes
threadlike structures made up of DNA; store and transmit genetic information
Genes are
Chromosomes are
deoxyribonucleaic acid: strings of amino acid pairs; substance of which genes and chromosomes are made
Mitosis Meiosis( Mitosis, Meiosis ) is a part of the cell cycle in which chromosomes in a cell nucleus are separated into two identical sets of chromosomes, each in its own nucleus.
Autosomes Sex Chromosomes Xygotes( Autosomes, Sex Chromosomes, Xygotes ) are the 22 pairs of chromosomes that are not sex chromosomes.

The perspective called views the human mind as a symbol-manipulating system through which information flows, much as in a digital computer, with environmental stimuli as inputs and behavioral responses as outputs.
