This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current dissertation explores the influence of birth timing, a relative measure of the timing of births within a season, on the mother-infant relationship and infant behavior and physiology across the first year of life. This research was based on the hypothesis that mothers that give birth early in the birth season have a longer period of time in which to wean their infants than do mothers that give birth late in the season. Due to these different constraints on maternal time and resources I predicted that the relationships between early born infants and their mothers, and late born infants and their mothers would differ in important ways, and that these differences would have consequences for infant development. In the first study I observed patterns of mother-infant interactions and infant behavior in 33 rhesus monkeys during weaning and maternal breeding to a) determine if birth timing predicted changes to the mother-infant relationship and infant behavior from weaning through maternal breeding, and b) identify predictors of infant behavior during a period of acute challenge, maternal breeding. The second study extended those findings to examine if variation in the mother-infant relationship due to birth timing was associated with infant behavior and physiology during weaning in 40 rhesus monkey infants. The final study examined the role of temperature in the association between birth timing and HPA axis activity and regulation in 338 3-4 month old rhesus monkeys. Results from the first study suggest that birth timing influences the patterns of mother-infant interactions, and that infant social engagement and affect expression may be influenced by different factors. Results from the second study indicate that the influence of birth timing on the mother-infant relationship may have consequences for infant coping and physiology. Finally, results from the third study suggest that birth timing may be a complex measure that reflects multiple aspects of the early environment. Altogether this program of research supports my hypothesis that, in seasonally breeding species like the rhesus monkey, birth timing may have important influences on the mother-infant relationship and infant development.

Download or read book The Behavior of Human Infants written by Alberto Oliverio and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present workshop started with various requests on behalf of several participants: some of us suggested the desirability of having only a free discussion, leaving papers aside: others would have preferred to stick to papers, though enlarging the discussion of each of them to more general topics. Further, intermediate positions were also present. From these different proposals came the hypothesis that a common frame or red line to all of our discussions on behavioural development would be to see what could be done by an interexchange of differing but converging disciplines in favour of children, and in particular of children with psychic handicaps, in terms of preven tion and cure. At the end of three days of prolonged meetings, where each paper was given and extensively discussed, one feels that a number of referral points have emerged. On the one side the plas ticity of behaviour, on the other is reciprocity (between mother and child, father and child and perhaps we should add between mother and father). The third point, which perhaps has been only partially covered, concerns the relationship between these two variables, i. e. in terms of treatment of a child, the potential plasticity of his behaviour can be used to his great advantage if it is related to the historical common needs of the reciprocal relationship, for example, between the child and his parents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The underlying theme uniting the papers of this volume is the quest for a further understanding of human behavior. The similarities between the behaviors of other primates and humans have captivated us even before a science arose. But what is the justification for making such comparisons? Comparisons, like classifications, can be made on any basis whatever. The aim in making any scientific comparison is the same as doing a classification. That is, one attempts to make the comparison on a "natural" basis. Natural, in this case, means that the comparison reflects processes that occur in nature. The fundamental paradigm for making natural comparisons in biology is based on evolutionary theory. The evolutionary paradigm is inherently one of comparisons between and within species. Conversely, it is impossible to begin to make cross species comparisons without making, implicitly at least, evolutionary arguments. But evolution is a complex construct of theories (Lewis, 1980), and comparisons can be made out of different theoretical bases. F or the sake of this discussion we can combine varieties of sub-theories into two categories: those having to do with descent with modification, and those concerned with the mechanics of evolutionary change--notably natural selection.

Book Handbook of Developmental Social Neuroscience

Download or read book Handbook of Developmental Social Neuroscience written by Michelle de Haan and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2011-06-23 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen an explosion of research into the physiological and neural bases of social behavior. This state-of-the science handbook is unique in approaching the topic from a developmental perspective. Exploring the dynamic relationship between biology and social behavior from infancy through adolescence, leading investigators discuss key processes in typical and atypical development. Chapters address emotion, motivation, person perception, interpersonal relationships, developmental disorders, and psychopathology. The volume sheds light on how complex social abilities emerge from basic brain circuits, whether there are elements of social behavior that are "hard wired" in the brain, and the impact of early experiences. Illustrations include 8 color plates.
