limitations: young infants cannot verbalise how they feel and they're experiences so some studies may rely on their carers interpretation which may be bias or inaccurate. ]]> 2021-10-07 15:31:06 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1800221964 I think it will be useful one day when I have my own family / children in understanding and making sure they develop into their full potential without stunting their growth. https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1800239364 2021-10-07 15:36:24 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1800239364 https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1800569017 I think it will be useful as you can then change your own behaviour to benefit a child's development.]]> 2021-10-07 17:37:39 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1800569017 https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1802283403 I found the non-nutritive sucking study by Siqueland and De Lucia extremely interesting how they thought of sucking to explain if babies recognise new sounds. ]]> 2021-10-08 11:25:15 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1802283403 https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1802286097 One strength of experimental research with children is that we can see their development and how they change throughout their lifespan.
One limitation of experimental research with children is that they cannot give consent - they have to have parental or guardian consent. ]]> 2021-10-08 11:27:06 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1802286097 https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1804257043 Studying child development can be useful for me as I will be able understand the development that children go through if I have a career that involves working with children]]> 2021-10-09 16:00:04 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1804257043 https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1804258920 There are different types of experimental designs that can be used to study child development such as longitudinal and cross sectional]]> 2021-10-09 16:01:37 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1804258920 https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1804261774 Limitation - infants are not able to communicate so inferences must be made about their behaviour, which can result in researcher bias

Maybe developmental psychology paving way for cognitive psychology? https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1805542061 2021-10-10 14:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1805542061 I think studying child development is necessary for anyone who is considering having a kid. It is useful to know the ins and out of child development so one could properly raise / take care of a child https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1805990623 2021-10-10 19:49:00 UTC https://padlet.com/Ekaterina_O/7d906erk77oy5n0k/wish/1805990623
