10Strange Situation!
- Secure Attachment
- Mother Present Child explores and interacts with
stranger. - Mother Leaves Child visibly upset does not
interact with stranger. - Mother Returns Child happy to see Mom.
- Insecure Attachment
- Mother Present Child is anxious of exploration
and of strangers. - Mother Leaves Sometimes upset but sometimes
ambivalent. Anxious of stranger. - Mother Returns Child may be ambivalent or angry
(hitting or pushing Mother). Often shows little
emotion when mother leaves or returns. Mother
and stranger often treated the same.
11- Secure attachment comes from Mother who is
available and able to meet the needs of the child
in a responsive and appropriate manner - Insecure attachment comes from Mother who ignores
childs needs (until Mother is ready to give it
completed. Attention given when Mother wants to
give it not when the child asks for it. - Also occurs when the child's needs are frequently
not met and the child comes to believe that
communication of needs has no influence on the
caregiver.

21Language
- By 4-6 months, babies have learned basic language
sounds of their language, and over time lose
ability to perceive speech sounds in another
language
- Between 6 months to 1 year, babies enter the
babbling phase infants become more familiar with
the sound structure of their native language
22- Around 11 months, babies begin a one-word stage
- (Juice!)
- Between 18 months and 2 years, 2 and 3 word
combinations are produced Combinations
telegraph meaning (Want Juice!)
23Is Language due to Nurture?
- BF Skinner Operant Conditioning
- Children learn to speak because they are rewarded
for making certain sounds
24- Is Language Nurture? Noam Chomsky
- Chomsky argued the brain must contain a language
acquisition device that enables children to
develop a language if they are exposed to it.
25- Language (Chomsky Innate?)
- Children all over the world go through similar
stages of linguistics development
- Children combine words in ways that adults never
would, so they could not be simply imitating
adults
26 27- Heinz Dilemma
- After listening to Heinzs story, write down what
you think he should have done and WHY
28Lawrence Kohlberg
- The 3 Levels of Moral Development
- Moral level is determined by answers people give
to hypothetical moral dilemmas
29Level One Preconventional morality (self
interest up to 10)
- This level is characterized by the desire to
avoid punishment or gain reward - Stage 1 fear punishment for disobedience
- Stage 2 fairness/whats in it for me?
30Possible answers
- Heinz shouldnt steal the drug because he might
go to jail - He should steal the drug or his wife will yell at
him - It is right for Heinz to steal the drug because
it can cure his wife and then she can cook for
him. - The doctor scientist had spent lots of money and
many years of his life to develop the cure so
it's not fair to him if Heinz stole the drug.
31Level 2 Conventional morality (10 through Adult)
- This Level is characterized by the Primary
concern of fitting in and playing the role of a
good citizen - People have a strong desire to follow the rules
and laws. - Typical of most adults
- Stage 3 based on conformity and loyalty
- Stage 4 a law-and-order orientation
32Possible Answers
- Yes, Heinz should steal the drug. He probably
will go to jail for a short time for stealing but
everyone will think he is a good husband. - As her husband, Heinz has a duty to save his
wife's life so he should steal the drug. But it's
wrong to steal, so Heinz should be prepared to
accept the penalty for breaking the law.
33Level 3 Postconventional (principled)
morality(Adolescence- through Adulthood)
- This level characterized by an appreciation of
Universal ethical principles that represent the
rights or obligations of all people - Most adults do not reach this level.
- Stage 5 values and laws are relative and
change recognition that people hold differing
standards - Stage 6 standard based on universal human
rights
34Possible answers
- Heinz should steal the drug because everyone has
the right to life regardless of the law against
stealing. Should Heinz be caught and prosecuted
for stealing then the law (against stealing)
needs to be reinterpreted because a person's life
is at stake. - The doctor scientist's decision is despicable but
his right to fair compensation (for his
discovery) must be maintained. Therefore, Heinz
should not steal the drug. - Heinz should steal the drug to save his wife
because preserving human life is a higher moral
obligation than preserving property.
35- Limitations to theory
- Stage theory tends to over look cultural and
educational influences on reasoning - Peoples moral reasoning is often inconsistent
across situations (your morality changes all the
time) - Moral reasoning and behavior are often unrelated
