CD chapter 5
Conditioned stimulus (CS) - correct answer ✔In classical conditioning, a
neutral stimulus that, through pairing with an unconditioned stimulus (UCS),
leads to a new, conditioned response (CR).


intermodal perception - correct answer ✔Perception that combines
information from more than one modality, or sensory system, resulting in an
integrated whole.


amodal sensory properties - correct answer ✔Information that overlaps two
or more sensory systems, such as rate, rhythm, duration, intensity, and
temporal synchrony in visual and auditory input.


growth faltering - correct answer ✔Failure of an infant to grow normally,
characterized by weight, height, and head circumference substantially below
age-related norms and by withdrawn, apathetic behavior, with a disturbed
parent-infant relationship often a contributing factor.


lateralization - correct answer ✔Specialization of functions in the two
hemispheres of the cerebral cortex.


ulnar grasp - correct answer ✔The clumsy grasp of the young infant, in
which the fingers close against the palm.


contrast sensitivity - correct answer ✔A general principle accounting for early
visual pattern preferences, which states that if babies can detect a difference
in contrast between two patterns, they prefer the pattern with more contrast.

, perceptual narrowing effect - correct answer ✔Perceptual sensitivity that
becomes increasingly attuned with age to information most often
encountered.The well-coordinated grasp that emerges at the end of the first
year, involving thumb and index finger opposition.


kwashiorkor - correct answer ✔A disease caused by an unbalanced diet very
low in protein, which usually appears after weaning, between 1 and 3 years of
age. Symptoms include an enlarged belly, swollen feet, hair loss, skin rash,
and irritable, listless behavior.


size constancy - correct answer ✔Perception of an object's size as the same,
despite changes in the size of its retinal image.


dynamic systems theory of motor development - correct answer ✔A theory
that views new motor skills as reorganizations of previously mastered skills,
which lead to more effective ways of exploring and controlling the
environment. Each new skill is a joint product of central nervous system
development, the body's movement capacities, the goals the child has in
mind, and environmental supports for the skill.


classical conditioning - correct answer ✔A form of learning that involves
associating a neutral stimulus with a stimulus that leads to a reflexive
response. Once the nervous system makes the connection between the two
stimuli, the neutral stimulus produces the behavior by itself.


myelination - correct answer ✔The coating of neural fibers with myelin, an
insulating fatty sheath that improves the efficiency of message transfer.


neurons - correct answer ✔Nerve cells that store and transmit information.
