Learning Disabilities01:25

Learning Disabilities

Learning disabilities are cognitive disorders caused by neurological impairments that affect cognitive functions like language and reading, without indicating overall intellectual or developmental challenges. These disabilities differ from global intellectual or developmental disabilities as they are limited to distinct cognitive functions. Common learning disabilities include dysgraphia, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, each of which impacts unique aspects of learning.

First Words During Infancy and Toddlerhood: Part 2

Early language development begins with receptive vocabulary, the words children understand before they can speak. By about 18 months, many children understand roughly 150 words and produce about 50. Children with larger vocabularies and faster processing may recognize words from their initial sounds. For example, hearing “daw” may prompt identification of a dog, showing sensitivity to phonological cues.Growth of Expressive VocabularyExpressive vocabulary, or spoken vocabulary, develops...

Perceiving Language Sounds and Structure During Infancy

Infants are born with a predisposition to perceive and categorize basic linguistic sounds. Early in development, they can discriminate sounds from many languages and detect differences in rhythm and pattern. This sensitivity may begin before birth. Newborns exposed to two languages prenatally can recognize both, indicating that fetal language exposure influences later auditory discrimination.Recognition of Familiar SoundsBy five months, infants show preferences for familiar auditory stimuli,...

Imitation During Infancy and Toddlerhood

Imitation is an important form of learning in early childhood, allowing children to learn new behaviors and participate in social interactions. Children imitate others for different purposes. They may copy adults and peers to learn skills and build social connections. Imitation becomes especially important toward the end of the first year.Early Development of ImitationPiaget observed that infants initially imitate actions they can see themselves perform, such as hand or foot movements. By about...
Language Development I: Behaviorist Perspective01:15

Language Development I: Behaviorist Perspective

Skinner’s behaviorist perspective explains language development through experience and learned associations. Children learn language through operant conditioning, in which behaviors followed by positive consequences become more likely to happen again. Caregiver responses gradually shape infants’ vocalizations.Reinforcement and Speech DevelopmentInfants first produce random babbling without intending specific meanings. When a sound resembles a word or adult speech, caregivers may respond with...

First Words During Infancy and Toddlerhood: Part 1

Language development in infancy progresses from understanding words to producing meaningful speech. Infants use contextual and social cues to connect sounds with meanings and gradually expand their vocabulary.Word Recognition Before SpeechInfants understand words before they can say them. By about six months, they may look toward a familiar object, such as a banana, when hearing its name. This receptive vocabulary provides a foundation for later speech.First Words and Linguistic SpeechMost...
