  1. Developmental psychobiology

    About the field of scientific research the journal Developmental Psychobiology journal Developmental psychobiology is an interdisciplinary field, encompassing developmental psychology , behavioral neuroscience biological psychology , neuroscience and many other areas of biology . The field covers all phases of ontogeny , with particular emphasis on prenatal, perinatal and early childhood development. Conducting research into basic aspects of development, for example, the development of infant attachment, sleep , eating , thermoregulation , learning and attention , occupies most developmental psychobiologists. At the same time, they are actively engaged in research on applied problems such as sudden infant death syndrome , the development and care of the preterm birth preterm infant , autism , and the effects of various prenatal insults e.g., maternal stress, alcohol exposure on the development of brain and behavior see Michel & Moore, 1995 . Developmental psychobiologists employ and integrate both biology biological and psychology psychological concepts and methods cf. Michel & Moore, 1995 and have historically been highly concerned with the interrelation between ontogeny and phylogenetics phylogeny or individual development and evolutionary processes see, e.g., Blumberg, 2002, 2005 Gottlieb, 1991 .

  1. Developmental profile

    refimprove date December 2007 A developmental profile is a standardized psychodynamic diagnostic instrument for assessing clinically relevant personality characteristics. It is based on the clinical observation that adult personality characteristics often bear a considerable similarity to the behavioural patterns of early childhood . Thus the psychoanalytical developmental theories and the classification of behaviour are integrated in the developmental profile. The developmental profile is a matrix mathematics matrix consisting of 10 developmental levels horizontal rows and nine developmental levels vertical columns . Each line describes various categories of behaviour and for each line there are various phases in the development of the psychosocial capacities. The lowest six levels refer to maladaptive behaviour. The information for the developmental profile is obtained using a semi structured interview that explores the patient s Habit psychology habitual behaviour during the previous decade. A developmental profile can be made using a registration protocol . The information from filling in the developmental profile provides guidelines with respect to the goals of treatment and the manner in which they can be pursued. It can also be useful in understanding the behaviour of a patient. Robert B. McCall, Mark I. Appelbaum, and Pamela S. Hogarty argue that since there is no necessary relation between cross age correlations and the nature of developmental profile contrours, and since individual subjects can display marked changes even though cross age correlations are high, the investigation of change in developmental profile of mental performance should be considered a separate and important issue ref Robert B.

  1. Developmental roster

    In Major League Soccer , in addition to the senior roster, each team can carry a developmental roster of a certain number of young players whose contracts do not count against the salary cap . The allowable size of developmental rosters has varied throughout its existence in the 2005 season, it grew to ten from a former limit of six, but for the 2009 season, it was reduced to a limit of four players. The developmental roster includes Generation adidas known as Project 40 before 2005 signees, Home Grown Players, and other players usually recent college graduates 25 or younger, called developmental players . Except for the Generation adidas players, whose salaries have no limit and are negotiated individually with the league, developmental players are paid a salary well below the MLS minimum, currently pegged at around 32,504 per year. A player is graduated from the developmental roster to the senior roster at the team s discretion, a decision which usually results from a player passing the age limit or becoming an important member of the squad. Notable former developmental players include Davy Arnaud , Nat Borchers , Alejandro Moreno , Jack Jewsbury , and Troy Perkins .

  1. Developmental toxicity

    merge to teratology date September 2011 Developmental toxicity is any structural or functional alteration, reversible or irreversible, which interferes with homeostasis, normal growth, differentiation, development or behaviour, and which is caused by environmental insult including drugs, lifestyle factors such as alcohol, diet, and environmental chemicals or physical factors . Developmental toxicology is a science studying adverse developmental outcomes. This term has widely replaced the early term for the study of birth defects, teratology , to enable inclusion of a more diverse spectrum of adverse developmental outcomes. Typical factors causing developmental toxicity are radiation , infections e.g. rubella , maternal metabolic imbalances e.g. alcoholism , diabetes , folic acid deficiency , drugs e.g. anticancer drugs , tetracyclines , many hormones , thalidomide , and environmental chemicals e.g. Mercury poisoning mercury , Lead poisoning lead , dioxins and dioxin like compounds dioxins , tobacco smoke .

  1. Developmental psychopathology

    Refimprove date October 2008 Developmental psychopathology is the study of the development of psychological disorders, such as psychopathy , autism , schizophrenia and Clinical depression depression , with a lifecourse perspective. Developmental psychopathology is a sub field of developmental psychology characterized by the following non comprehensive list of assumptions Atypical development and typical development are mutually informative. Therefore, developmental psychopathology is not the study of pathological development, but the study of the basic mechanisms that cause developmental pathways to diverge toward pathological or typical outcomes Development leads to either adaptive or maladaptive outcomes. However, development that is adaptive in one context may be maladaptive in another context Developmental change is influenced by many variables. Research designs in developmental psychopathology should incorporate multivariate designs to examine the mechanisms underlying development Development occurs within nested contexts see Urie Bronfenbrenner This field requires that development arises from a dynamic interplay of physiological, genetic, social, cognitive, emotional, and cultural influences across time. Development of Conduct Problems One form of developmental pathology is conduct disorder. Conduct disorder grows progressively worse over time and behavior considered annoying as a child is considered pathological as the child gets older. The Oregon social learning group has done considerable research on the development of conduct disorder ref Patterson 2002 Etiology and Treatment of Child and Adolescent Antisocial Behavior. The Behavior Analyst Today, 3 2 , 133 155. http www.baojournal.com ref Patterson and colleagues take a functionalist view of conduct problems in line with a Behavior analysis of child development . They have found considerable evidence that the improper use of reinforcment in childhood can lead to this form of pathology ref James Snyder, Mike ...   more details

  1. Developmental robotics

    Developmental Robotics DevRob , sometimes called epigenetic robotics , is a methodology that uses metaphors from neural development and developmental psychology to develop the mind for autonomous robot s. The focus is on a single or multiple robots going through stages of autonomous mental development AMD . Researchers in this field study artificial emotions, self motivation, and other methods of self organization . The program that simulates the functions of genome to develop a robot s mental capabilities is called a developmental program. Different from traditional machine learning, some major features of developmental robotics are Task nonspecificity Since it is difficult for the genome to predict what tasks the baby will learn and perform in his life, the developmental program is body specific species specific but not task specific. Environmental openness Due to the task nonspecificity, AMD must deal with unknown and uncontrolled environments, including various human environments. Raw sensors AMD must directly deal with continuous raw signals from sensors e.g., vision, audition and touch , since different tasks require different information in the sensors. Only raw signals have ... 1992 , http www.cse.msu.edu weng research IJCVrvsd2.pdf IJCV 1997 was the first published developmental ....
