Document Summary

Reference: craig and dunn chapters 4-5: name and define the first two of erikson"s developmental conflicts. Erik erickson saw the patterns of separating from the caregiver as a conflict between autonomy versus shame and doubt. He believed that this conflict would be resolved in the second and third years of a child"s life. Toddlers approach a task based on their previous experiences. Parents and adult figures play a major role in a child"s development. If a child develops a trusting relationship with their caregivers during the first year of life, they are better prepared to take the first steps toward independence. However, toddlers who have failed to form secure attachments are more likely to have a difficult time. True/f: a 2 month old is improving head control and still has some reflexes present__. Explain mary ainsworth"s strange situation experiment, and its significance in the development of attachment.
