Problem 2 – It’s just emotions taking me overEarly emotional development
Babies communicatie their feelings, needs and desires to others through the expression
of emotion. In addition children also learn to read the emotional signs that other people
display. Both processes – the production and the recognition of emotion – are essential
to have useful interactions with other people.
Emotions: Subjective reactions to the environment that are usually experienced cognitively
as either pleasant or unpleasant, generally accompanied by physiological arousal, and often
expressed (deliberately or unintentionally) in some visible form of behavior.
Emotions are influenced by biological foundations and experience. The biological foundation
of emotion involves the development of the nervous system. Social relationship, in turn,
provide the setting for the development of a rich variety of emotions. Cultural variations
reveal the role of experience in emotion. For example, display rules are not universal.
- Primary emotions: Emerge early in life and do not require introspection or
self-reflection. For example, fear, joy, digust, surprise, anger, sadness and interest.
o Three types of crying: basis cry, anger cry, pain cry (form of communication)
o Two types of smiling:
Reflexive smile: Does not occur in response to external stimuli
Social smile: Occurs in response to an external stimulus (e.g. a face)
A Duchenne marker is an eye constriction that shows a genuine smile.
Infants become better at distinguishing fake and real smiles with age.
- Secondary emotions: Emerge later in development and depend on our sense of self
and our awereness of other individual’s reactions to our actions. For example, pride,
shame, guilt, jealousy and embarrassment.
Three theoretical perspectives on emotional development:
1. The genetic-maturational perspective: According to this view, emotions are products
of biological factors. Individual differences in temperament play a central role in how
intensely children react to emotionally arousing situations and in how well they are
able to regulate their reactions. Evidence for this view comes from twin studies.
2. The learning perspective: Different emotions and the way in which children express
them, have different ages of onset, frequencies and intensities in different children.
Parents play a huge role by eliciting or dismissing the expression of certain emotions.
3. The functionalist perspective: According to this theory, emotions serve to help us
achieve our goals and adapt to our environment. Emotions have an important social
component: We use information provided by other’s emotional signals to guide our
own behavior. This is called social referencing.
