L6 Assignment 1

Q 1. Read/study Chapter Seven of the textbook Children: Socioemotional Development in Infancy. 2. Chapter Assignment: Using the “Key People” list at the end of Chapter 7, please identify and describe the work of each person on this list as it is referred to in the chapter. If you copy straight from the book without explaining in your own words, you will get a poor grade. The Two-Column Notes style is appropriate for this assignment as long as your notes/phrases on the right hand side are complete enough to be able to reconstruct the material with just your notes at some time in the future. Write as if your professor has never heard of these people. 3. NOTE: Do not interpret the text regarding Ainsworth and Bowlby incorrectly. The author is trying to say that they believe that one must always respond right away to a crying infant: that there could never be too much, it is so important.
