Session information
- Title:
- Emotional development
- Description:
- This session is aimed at a universal audience and looks at the process of emotional development with a description of the basic emotions, when they first appear, and what they mean. We will look at how infants learn to discriminate between emotions and develop secondary emotions. We will describe the importance of parenting in emotional development and look at higher-order processes such as metacognition of emotion and empathy. We will also look at gender differences in emotional development, particularly during adolescence. The session ends with an overview of environment and genetic factors that can affect emotional development.
