Chapter 6 – Physical Development
I. Growth Patterns
Top down - cephalocaudal
- head develops first
- vital functions first (survival)
![Page 2: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Center outward – proximodistal
- internal organs first
- trunk faster than arms & legs
- BUT in adolescence, hands & feetfastest (awkward)

II. Phases of growth
Infancy/early childhood (0-5)
• Rapid growth
• Nervous system
• Body size
![Page 4: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Middle/late childhood (6-12)• Slower growth• 2" & 6 lbs/year
Adolescence (13-20)• Rapid growth• Body size (3-6" & 10-15 lbs)• Reproductive system
![Page 5: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Puberty:
• girls: breast enlargement, growth spurt
• boys: testicle enlargement
Individual variability
![Page 6: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Population trends
1.Bigger & heavier
100 years ago man = 5'7" woman= 5'3"
Today: man = 5'9" woman = 5'4"
![Page 7: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
2.Growth is earlier• Average age for menarche
- 100 years ago = 15- today = 13
3.Industrialized vs. 3rd-world• Better medical care• Nutrition

III. Environmental Effects on Growth
A. Nutrition
Provides energy
- Basic body functions
- Physical activity
- Growth, especially after birth
![Page 9: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Special needs of infants
- higher proportion of calories
- more vitamins & minerals
![Page 10: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Malnutrition (50% of kids)
- failure to grow normally
- delayed & smaller growth spurt
- critical period of 1-3
![Page 11: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Nutritional diseases
Marasmus
- inadequate calories
- in 1st year
- from malnourished mother
- infant can die
![Page 12: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Kwashiorkor
- inadequate protein
- ok while breast-fed
-> years 1-3
![Page 13: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
childhood illnesses
- weakened immune system
-> smaller, lower IQ, etc.
![Page 14: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Over-nutrition
- heredity + environment
- physical illness
- social problems
![Page 15: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
B. Climate
Body types adapted to climates
east Africans vs. northern Asians
Seasonal variations in growth
- grow faster in spring & summer
![Page 16: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
C. Psychosocial Effects
1.Emotional stress
- “Failure to thrive”
- emotional traumas reduce growth hormone
- some catch up
![Page 17: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
2. Popularity & timing of puberty
Boys
- early maturation = better duringadolescence
- late-maturing boys benefit later;
more sensitive & flexible
![Page 18: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Girls
- mixed results in girls
- disadvantages to early maturation
- but differences disappear
![Page 19: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
II. Central Nervous System (CNS)
• CNS = Brain & spinal cord

Neuron Structure
• Cell body - nucleus
• Dendrites - receive information
• Axon - sends information
• Myelin sheath - conductance
![Page 21: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Neuron Function
• Impulse is carried across synapseby neurotransmitters
![Page 22: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Brain structures & functions
Cerebrum/cortex
• Higher functions
• 2 hemispheres
(separated by corpus callosum)
• Left = language
• Right = visual-spatial, humor, perceiving emotions
![Page 23: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
4 Lobes
• Frontal - personality, executive, motor
• Parietal - speech, sensory
• Occipital - vision
• Temporal - hearing
![Page 24: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Subcortex
Limbic system
- emotions, pleasure & aversion,
- sensory & motor impulses
Reticular formation
- sleep & wake
![Page 25: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Cerebellum • Involuntary motor• Body equilibrium & muscle tone
Medulla• Reflexes
Spinal cord• Impulse conduction to body parts
![Page 26: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Brain Development
Brain size
• 25% of ultimate size by birth
• 90% by age 5
Number of neurons
• Born with total number
• Grow in size & connections
![Page 27: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Lateralization development
• left: language from roughly birth
• right: inconsistent research
![Page 28: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
III. Motor Development
Principles
1.Gross before fine
Coordination of large muscle groupsbefore small muscle groups
![Page 29: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
2.Differentiation
• Learn to control specific muscles to enact specific behaviors
3.Integration
• Put individual, differentiated actions together into complex movements
![Page 30: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Gross Motor Control(large muscles)
Control over upper body
• Holds chest/head up (3 mos)
Control over whole body
• Sits unsupported (5 mos)
![Page 31: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Gets into sitting position (7 mos
• Spontaneous kicking
• Alternating leg movements
Pulls to standing (7-8 mos)
Crawls - 10 months
![Page 32: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• Stands alone (11 mos)
• Walks (> 1 year)
• Refines walking (1-2 yrs)
![Page 33: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• Uses 2 feet together (2 yrs)
• Full body control (6 yrs)
- boys better by 12
• Cultural differences in milestones
![Page 34: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Fine Motor Control(small muscles)
Newborns: grasping reflex
- & sometimes hand to mouth
1-2 months - decline in grasping reflex
- visually-guided reaching
(good by 3 months)
- but touch objects only on same side of body as arm
![Page 35: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
4 months
- reach inward to body midline
- use 2 hands simultaneously
5 months
- coordinated actions with both hands
![Page 36: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
7-8 months
- sequence of behaviors with hands
18 months
- improved finger control
8-10 years
- skills close to adults
![Page 37: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Handedness
• 90% = right hand; 7-8% = left hand
• Across cultures & 50 centuries
• Preference by age 1
• Consistent by age 3
![Page 38: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Reasons for Right-Handedness
Environmental
• R-handed world
• Lefties forced to use right hand
• But R-hand consistency across cultures
![Page 39: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Age-Handedness Correlation:
• With increase in age = fewer lefties
• Because older folks forced to use R hand?
• BUT - lefties die at earlier ages
• Women = 5 years Men= 10 years
• Safety
![Page 40: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Genetic: recessive trait?
• But only 35% kids of 2 lefty parents are L-handed
• MZ twins not more alike than DZ twins
• DZ twins not more alike than unrelated people
![Page 41: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Other biological• Related L-hemisphere dominance • Unknown mechanisms• Birth-related trauma?
disrupt normal hemispheric organization?
- greater neurological problems & birth stress
• More lefties develop Alzheimers
![Page 42: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Determinants of Motor Development
Physical maturation - Nature
• Cross-cultural similarity
• Perform many behaviors without learning/practice
EX Navajos & walking
![Page 43: Chapter 6 – Physical Development I.Growth Patterns Top down - cephalocaudal - head develops first - vital functions first (survival)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649e8a5503460f94b8f1da/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Learning - Nurture
• Activity changes brain
• Many behaviors must be practiced - Ache
• Some cultural differences
• Training can speed motor development
Conclusion: biology + environment
