Document Summary

In males, the right amygdala is more responsible for the emotional arousal. In female, it is the opposite (in the left) Emotions begin on the left hand side of the face (because of the right hand lateralization) At beak intensity, there is greater emotion shown on the left. Note: left frontal lobe is more involved in positive emotions, the right in negative. More activity in the left when watching happy films, more in the right for sad/disgusting films. Issues in development: changes in abilities over time. Nature determines the range of interaction ie a gene for being tall. Nurture chooses the alternatives ie whether you"ll be 5"11 versus 6"9. Development is discontinuous; stages are separated by periods of rapid growth. Qualitative differences (ie caterpillars, cocoon to worm to butterfly) Quantitative difference (growing, getting stronger, maturing, etc. ) Normative: typical sequence of change, looks for consistency, methodology is cross-sectional (examining different individuals who are in varied stages of development)
