A sample of 48 English-learning infants from families varying in socioeconomic status was followed from 18 to 24 months. Koenig, M. A., and S. Doebel. This connection of relationships and social interactions to cognitive development is consistent with how the brain develops and how the mind grows, and is a theme throughout this chapter. This stability has many advantages, but as with categorization, it also can be problematic—for example, generic statements about social categories can reify the categories and beliefs about them. Effect of breakfast composition on cognitive processes in elementary school children. American Journal of Epidemiology 104(2):107-123. Simple labels can help children unify disparate things into coherent categories, but can also have the unintended consequence of reinforcing categories or concepts that are not desirable.

Guidance related to nutrition, physical activity, oral health, immunizations, and preventive health care is essential across all early care and education settings. 2010. According to two reviews of the effect of consuming breakfast in children and adolescents, the evidence suggests that children who consume breakfast—particularly those children whose nutritional status is compromised—may have improved cognitive function, test grades, and school attendance. 2009. In laboratory settings, children can initially differentiate 1 from “more than 1” at about 33 months of age (Wynn, 1992b). Bull, R., R. S. Johnston, and J. 2008.

Learning trajectories also promote the learning of skills and concepts together—an effective approach that leads to both mastery and more fluent, flexible use of skills, as well as to superior conceptual understanding (Fuson and Kwon, 1992; National Mathematics Advisory Panel, 2008). Natural pedagogy. This suggests that attention needs to be paid to improving birth outcomes rather than assuming that postnatal interventions will be widely and equitably effective. In particular, these mothers talk more elaboratively with their children in ways that foster the children’s deeper understanding and in so doing help support the children’s cognitive growth (Fivush et al., 2006). Language and literacy skills are discussed further in a subsequent section of this chapter, as well as in Chapter 6. Cognitive developmental comprises “I” - intellectual development and “C” - creativity of SPICE. These problems affect not only early learning and the development of cognitive skills (with impacts on the development of language being best documented) but also the development of learning skills associated with self-regulation and persistence, as well as coping ability, health, and emotional well-being (Blair and Raver, 2012; Evans and Kim, 2013). Each enables and mutually supports learning and development in the others. 19858. The nature and impact of early achievement skills, attention skills, and behavior problems. In relation to child development Similarly, growth in mathematics from kindergarten to third grade is related to both early numerical skills and phonological processing (Vukovic, 2012). Neuenschwander, R., M. Röthlisberger, P. Cimeli, and C. M. Roebers. 1998. Gough, P. B., W. A. Hoover, and C. L. Peterson. 2013. The availability of unhealthy options in schools leads to poor choices by children, whereas research has shown that efforts to reduce the availability of sugar-sweetened beverages in the schools can have a positive impact on children’s choices (AAP Committee on School Health, 2004). Differences in these learning skills are especially associated with academic achievement for children in circumstances of economic disadvantage who face various kinds of self-regulatory challenges (Blair and Raver, 2012; Howse et al., 2003a). Justice, L. M., A. S. McGinty, T. Zucker, S. Q. Cabell, and S. B. Piasta. They appreciate that people’s thinking may be biased by expectations, prior experiences, and desires that cause them to interpret the same situation in very different ways (Lalonde and Chandler, 2002). For example, very young children possess approximate number systems (ANSs) that allow them to discriminate large and small sets, determining, for example, whether there are more white or gray dots in the figure below.

Children with teachers who organize the day with optimal amounts of time for peer-to-peer interactions may achieve greater language growth (Mashburn et al., 2009). The composition of the breakfast meal may also be important to cognitive performance; a. breakfast meal with a low glycemic index, such as oatmeal, has been shown to improve cognitive function (Cooper et al., 2012; Mahoney et al., 2005). Developmental Review 26(1):55-88. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press. Many subsequent studies have both replicated this finding and extended it to demonstrate that the same sensitivity can be seen in babies’ parsing of music (Saffran et al., 1999) and even of how visual displays are organized (Kirkham et al., 2002). What are the circumstances that contribute to chronic adversity and stress for children? Early Development and Parenting 5:35-45. 2008. A meta-analysis of studies of one measure of executive function, the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test, suggests that the performance of individuals with ADHD is fairly consistently poorer than that of individuals without clinical diagnoses (Romine et al., 2004). The generic/nongeneric distinction influences how children interpret new information about social others. As detailed in Chapter 3, one of the most important advances in developmental science in recent years has been the recognition that the brain incorporates experience into its development. ———.

There is evidence that coordinated efforts between educational settings and health care services lead to improved health. Academic performance of students with emotional and behavioral disorders served in a self-contained setting. It is difficult to think of any child developing language apart from social interactions with others. These remarkable advances in social understanding are important to children’s developing socioemotional skills for interacting with educators and peers. Children as young as 14 to 18 months are often imitating not the literal observed action but the action they thought the actor intended—the goal or the rationale behind the action (Gergely et al., 2002; Meltzoff, 1995). 2006.

Similar results have been reported with kindergarteners by Kamins and Dweck (1999) and by Zentall and Morris (2010), with the latter indicating that task persistence as well as self-evaluation were strengthened by the use of nongeneric performance feedback. For mathematics learning in children who are dual language learners, the language, not just the vocabulary, of mathematics need to be addressed (Clements and Sarama, 2014). Wulfert, E., J.

The language environment of the classroom can function as a support for developing the kind of language that is characteristic of the school curriculum—for example, giving children opportunities to develop the sophisticated vocabulary and complex syntax found in texts, beginning at a very early age (Schleppegrell, 2003; Snow and Uccelli, 2009). Similar practices—adapted to young children’s developing skills—remain important as children proceed through the primary grades. The classic demonstration of this skill comes from a series of studies led by Walter Mischel beginning in the 1960s. Social experiences provide emotional security and support that enables learning and can also contribute to the development of language, number skills, problem solving, and other cognitive and learning skills that are foundational for school readiness and academic achievement. 2002.

The purpose of these and other activities is not just to provide young children with cognitive stimulation, but also to embed that stimulation in social interaction that provokes young children’s interest, elicits their curiosity, and provides an emotional context that enables them to focus their thinking on new discoveries. Journal of Experimental Child Psychology 113(1):49-65. Rich mathematical activities, such as discussing multiple solutions and solving narrative story problems, can help lay the groundwork for literacy through language development, while rich literacy activities can help lay the groundwork for mathematics development (Sarama et al., 2012).

(i.e., one is either smart or not), whereas others see it as a more malleable trait that can be changed through effort and persistence. In the other case, children had a couple of trials in which they and the experimenter depressed the levers simultaneously on the count of three, but also had trials in which they depressed their levers individually; in the latter cases, the child’s lever controlled one toy, while the experimenter’s lever controlled the other.

One problem, however, is that children in adverse circumstances usually have parents and other caregivers who are affected by the same conditions of adversity. These effects include lower scores in motor functioning; written expression; arithmetic achievement; and some specific cognitive processes, such as spatial memory and selective recall (NRC and IOM, 2000). In addition, differences in self-regulation competencies raise important issues related to disparities in educational achievement. Schoemaker, K., T. Bunte, K. A. Espy, M. Dekovic, and W. Matthys.

Consistent with the research concerning the biological and behavioral effects of chronic stress, there is increasing evidence that even very young children show clear evidence of traumatization and posttraumatic stress, anxious and depressive symptomatology, behavioral and conduct problems, and other serious psychological problems (Egger and Angold, 2006; Lieberman et al., 2011; Luby, 2006; Zeanah, 2009). ———. Smiley, P. A., and C. S. Dweck. New York: Guilford Press.

Alongside student–educator interactions, studies show that peer-to-peer interactions in the classroom may also have positive impacts on children’s vocabulary and expressive language abilities. Several studies have shown positive correlations between self-regulation and achievement in young children (e.g., Bierman et al., 2008b; Blair and Razza, 2007; Blair et al., 2010; Bull et al., 1999; Cameron et al., 2012; Neuenschwander et al., 2012; Roebers et al., 2012; Welsh et al., 2010), although there are exceptions (Edens and Potter, 2013). With these caveats in mind, the remainder of this chapter addresses in turn the domains of child development and early learning depicted in Figure 4-1: cognitive development, including learning of specific subjects; general learning competencies; socioemotional development; and physical development and health. Realizing that you don’t understand: A preliminary investigation. Journal of Educational Psychology 105(3): 10.1037/a0032096. Similarly, Florence and colleagues (2008) observed that students with lower overall diet quality were significantly more likely to fail a literacy assessment. This section examines these competencies as well as their interrelationships with the previously discussed subject-matter domains of language and literacy and mathematics. The discrimination of visual number. The use of trait labels in making psychological inferences. Emotional support of this kind is important not only as a positive.

In one study, mothers who provided positive evaluations, gentle guidance, and corrective feedback during teaching tasks with their 2-year-olds had children who, 1 year later, were more persistent and less likely to avoid difficult challenges. 2008. European Journal of Psychology of Education 20(2):121-137. Children exposed to experiences not occurring in their immediate environment are more likely to understand and use decontextualized language (Hindman et al., 2008). Building on many of the themes that have emerged from this discussion, the following sections continue by looking in more depth at cognitive development with respect to learning specific subjects and then at other major elements of development, including general learning competencies, socioemotional development, and physical development and health. 2010.

Similarly, although certain skills and concept knowledge are distinct to developing proficiency in particular subject areas, learning in these subject areas also both requires and supports general cognitive skills such as reasoning and attention, as well as learning competencies and socioemotional competence. Similarly, these characteristics continue to be associated with reading and mathematics achievement in the early elementary grades (Alexander et al., 1993). Raches, D., and M. M. M. Mazzocco. 2011.
