Does the case of Feral children support nature or nurture. Give at least two examples to support you view.

For me the reason why I think fetal children changed their human nature is because of violence.  The fact that when the children were raised by wolves or whatever animal, they identified with that species more so than human beings.  What it showed me was that we are mostly nurture, we learn how to be part of the human race. This is why I think nurture is what changed the fetal kids. I feel we learn violence from our parents, friends, society through social norms and media.

I can understand developmental research designs

Cross sectional vs longitudinal research

Cross sectional research- research done on many subjects of different ages at the same time
Advantages- inexpensive, takes relatively little time to complete, avoids high attrition rate

Disadvantages- different age groups are not necessarily alike, subjects of same chronological age might not be same multinational age, cohort differences and age differences are confounded

Longitudinal research- research done on one group of subjects over many years

Advantages- generates detailed information about subjects, Studies developmental changes in depth
Disadvantages- expensive. potential for high attrition rate

Prenatal development and the newborn
- Reflexes
- Rooting, swallowing Sucking, Babinski, Stepping
