AbstractEarly adversity, for example poor caregiving, can have profound effects on emotional development. Orphanage rearing, even in the best circumstances, lies outside of the bounds of a species‐typical caregiving environment. The long‐term effects of this early adversity on the neurobiological development associated with socio‐emotional behaviors are not well un...... hiện toàn bộ
Tracing children's vocabulary development from preschool through the school‐age years: an 8‐year longitudinal studyDevelopmental Science - Tập 18 Số 1 - Trang 119-131 - 2015

AbstractIn this 8‐year longitudinal study, we traced the vocabulary growth of Chinese children, explored potential precursors of vocabulary knowledge, and investigated how vocabulary growth predicted future reading skills. Two hundred and sixty‐four (264) native Chinese children from Beijing were measured on a variety of reading and language tasks over 8 years. Bet...... hiện toàn bộ
Executive functions in adolescence: inferences from brain and behaviorDevelopmental Science - Tập 12 Số 6 - Trang 825-830 - 2009
Eveline A. Crone
AbstractDespite the advances in understanding cognitive improvements in executive function in adolescence, much less is known about the influence of affective and social modulators on executive function and the biological underpinnings of these functions and sensitivities. Here, recent behavioral and neuroscientific studies are summarized that have used different a...... hiện toàn bộ
Age‐related changes in the control of episodic retrieval: an ERP study of recognition memory in children and adultsDevelopmental Science - Tập 12 Số 6 - Trang 1026-1040 - 2009
Daniela Czernochowski, Axel Mecklinger, Mikael Johansson
AbstractWe examined developmental aspects of the ability to monitor the temporal context of an item’s previous occurrence while event‐related potentials (ERPs) were recorded. In a continuous recognition task, children between 10 and 12 years and young adults watched a stream of pictures repeated with a lag of 10–15 intervening items and indicated recurrences. In a ...... hiện toàn bộ
Preschoolers continue to trust a more accurate informant 1 week after exposure to accuracy informationDevelopmental Science - Tập 12 Số 1 - Trang 188-193 - 2009
Kathleen H. Corriveau, Paul L. Harris
Abstract To determine whether children retain a preference for a previously accurate informant only in the short term or for long‐term use, 3‐ and 4‐year‐old children were tested in two experiments. In both experiments, children were given accuracy information about two informants and were subsequently tested for their selective trust in the two inform...... hiện toàn bộ
Shape, color and the other‐race effect in the infant brainDevelopmental Science - Tập 14 Số 4 - Trang 892-900 - 2011
Benjamin Balas, Alissa Westerlund, Katherine Hung, Charles A. Nelson
AbstractThe ‘other‐race’ effect describes the phenomenon in which faces are difficult to distinguish from one another if they belong to an ethnic or racial group to which the observer has had little exposure. Adult observers typically display multiple forms of recognition error for other‐race faces, and infants exhibit behavioral evidence of a developing other‐race...... hiện toàn bộ
One‐year‐olds comprehend the communicative intentions behind gestures in a hiding gameDevelopmental Science - Tập 8 Số 6 - Trang 492-499 - 2005
Tanya Behne, Malinda Carpenter, Michael Tomasello
Abstract This study explored infants’ ability to infer communicative intent as expressed in non‐linguistic gestures. Sixty children aged 14, 18 and 24 months participated. In the context of a hiding game, an adult indicated for the child the location of a hidden toy by giving a communicative cue: either pointing or ostensive gazing toward the container...... hiện toàn bộ
