Review of Key Concepts in Developmental Psychology and Gender Norms

This comprehensive review covers essential topics in AP Psychology, focusing on developmental stages, gender norms, and their psychological implications. Students will address common mistakes from previous tests, explore the differences between social learning theory and gender schema theory, and analyze prenatal development stages, including the effects of teratogens. Additional focus on newborn reflexes, neural networks, and the influence of maturation highlights the intersection of physical and psychological development. A flowchart and key diagrams are included to aid understanding.

  2. Test review • Go over common mistakes from the test. • 8 question curve

  3. Papers! • Turn in papers!

  4. Genome, Chromosomes, DNA, genes • Draw a diagram to help you remember the breakdown of these levels.

  5. Gender norms • What is a possible explanation for the differences in behaviors aligned with gender? What psychological lens does your explanation fit under? • What is a schema? What does this have to do with gender norms? • Read “Male Answer Syndrome” article. • Explain the difference between the social learning theory & the gender schema theory.

  6. Prenatal Development • Draw a flow chart for the following stages: zygote, embryo, & fetus • Explain what occurs at each stage of development • Write a few sentences explaining how teratogens can influence a human’s development.

  7. Newborns • Rooting reflex: Touch the cheek of a newborn, and it will turn that way, open its mouth, and look for a nipple to suck on. • What body part do newborns focus on? What evidence do we have for this? • Neural networks are primarily attuned to what?

  8. Infancy/Childhood • Maturation dictates what principle? • What is an example of nurture influencing maturation? (hint: supine position) • When do babies first begin to develop long-term memory?

  9. Essential Question • How does physical development pave the way for psychological development? (maturation, neural networks, brain, etc.)
