Answer each question thoroughly and clearly, and ground it in course reading material. Short essay answers must be more than 3 or 4 brief sentences (minimum 150 words), but kept within the bounds of a short-answer essay exam (Must Be 2-3 paragraphs) each question. All your writing must be in your own words. Paraphrase (restate what you read) rather than copying material from the course textbook or the Internet. No copying is permitted in this course and doing so will result in zero points on the exam. Answers must be written in narrative, paragraph form. Lists and/or sentence fragments also will not receive points.
1) Distinguish among the defense mechanisms of denial, repression, projection, reaction formation, and displacement.
2) In which ways is Freud's thinking no longer valid? Alternatively, what does his work provide that is useful to a modern study of personality?
3) Think about Sigmund Freud's view of children and contrast it with that of his daughter, Anna, and later neo-analytic theorists. How did each distinguish the psychology of adults from that of children in terms of the id and the ego?
4) Mahler thought that the degree of integration and separation between parent and child contributed greatly to healthy and unhealthy relationships in adulthood. What might be examples of healthy and unhealthy degrees of closeness between parents and children?

This week’s focus will be on some of the pioneers in what would eventually become the subspecialty of personality within the field of psychology. Both Freud and Erikson are known as stage theorists in that they viewed the development of one's personality to occur as an individual sequentially progressed through several distinct stages, characterized by a particular challenge that needed to be overcome.

This week’s focus will be on some of the pioneers in what would eventually become the subspecialty of personality within the field of psychology. Both Freud and Erikson are known as stage theorists in that they viewed the development of one's personality to occur as an individual sequentially progressed through several distinct stages, characterized by a particular challenge that needed to be overcome. Healthy personality development is associated with the successful navigation through these challenges, while personality problems or limitations are related to an individual's inability to adequately negotiate the challenge(s).
Early Pioneer: Sigmund Freud
When we mention the name Sigmund Freud many people think about sex drives and his concepts of Id, Ego, and Superego to explain structures of the mind. He is sometimes referred to in the behavioral sciences as the father of psychology because he tried to chart the mind. He believed that it was the multidimensional essential cause of motives, thoughts, actions, reactions, feelings, and beliefs. He was an extremely intelligent and developed a theory of personality and psychotherapy that prior to him had not seen. He established new ways of viewing and interpreting human behavior. He was a physician and he considered himself to be a biological scientist. As such he was concerned with biological structures such as the mind. He wondered what effect this framework exerted on psychological reactions.
Freud studied hypnosis under Jean-Martin Charcot who was a famous neuropathologist of the time. He began to use this method to treat what was known at the time as hysteria. Hysteria was considered a nervous ailment whose biological cause could not be determined.
Freud came to realize that hypnosis was not sufficient to treat many of his patients. He began to investigate other forms of suggestion such as free association and dreams. He considered dreams to be a royal road or pathway into the realm of the unconscious. He believed that we are given symbols in dreams that either brings us information about wishes we would want to be fulfilled or about wishes we would want to repress. He felt that the mind disguises our wishes with symbols when the material is too th ...

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Child psychology1
1. CHILD PSYCHOLOGY
Children are not small adults but developing individuals during
childhood, the child undergoes a remarkable transformation from a
helper, dependent infant to independent, self-sufficient individual with
her own views and outlooks, capable of earbarking on a career and
living separately from a family.
Psychologic growth and development generally proceed in a
relatively predictable, logical, step-like sequential order. These
processes are influenced by genetic, familial-cultural, inter-personal and
intrasychic factors.
An understanding of these tasks to specific age groups will equip
the dentist with the knowledge of the particular needs fears of children
and adolescents. Therefore, knowledge of normal psycholiogic growth
and development is essential to the practice of modern dentistry. The
child’s development should be always viewed in psychologic, social,
cognitive and physical terms, to ignore any one of these is to exclude an
integral part of the wide child.
Many theories have been proposed to explain and identify the
process involved in personality development. Although these theories
are treated separately there are similarities, which allow for comparison.
1
2. Definition :
Psychology is that branch of science which deals with mind and
mental processes especially in relation to human and animal behaviour.
Behaviour – The manner in which a person acts.
Thomson in 1912 first time gave the development pain, anxiety.
Theories of psychology can be broadly given into:
I]
a. Stage theories Psychoanalytic
Psychosexual
Cognitive theory
b. Non-stage theories Social learning theory
II]
a. Psychodynamic theory Archeic discharge syndrome
(Freud 1935)
Psychoanalytic (Freud 1915)
Psychosexual (Freud 1915)
Psychosocial (Erik, Eriksson)
The theory of hierarchy of needs (Abraham
Maslow 1954).
2
3. b. Behaviour learning theory
Classical conditioning theory (Ivan Pavlov 1927).
Operant conditioning (Skinner 1938)
Cognitive theory (Jean Piaget 1952)
Social –learning theory (Albert Bandura 1963)
Transactional analysis (Eric Berne 1964)
In contrast to this non-stage theories regard development as
continuous rather than stages and no distinction between periods.
Psychodynamic theories indicate that the behaviour keeps
changing progressively and behaviour learning theories indicate that
learning is the key to development of behaviour.
Archaic discharge syndrome:
According to this body contains two types of neurons :
- phi neurons (for conduction of emotions).
- psi neurons (for storage of emotions).
When stored, emotions reach a certain level, a discharge occurs
to display emotions.
Psychoanalytical theory:
Stage theories represent stages which are hierarchically
organized, so that later stages incorporated remnants of earlier stages.
3
4. No stage can be skipped and successive stages more complex and
integrated than earlier phases. (Sigmund Freud was the founder of
modern psychiatry).
He put forth the psychoanalytical theory based on three structure
to understand the intrapsychic processes and personality development.
They are id, ego, seeperego (this forms psychic triad).
Id: It represents unregulated instinctual drives and emergeies striving to
meet bodily needs and desires and is governed by pleasure principle.
Here the person thinks only of body needs and desire but with
little concern for other or social convention.
Example: Intoxicated, sexually provocative person exclusively
acts under pleasure principle. Dreams also provide pleasure because of
their unrestricted and uninhibited nature.
Ego: Is the seat of consciousness, which exploits that environment to the
maximum to achieve gratification in socially acceptable ways.
Example: is the utilization of ego defense mechanism and of
other ego functions such as memory, language, intelligence and
creativity.
4
5. It develops in the 2nd
to 6th
months of life and is governed by
reality principle. It serves as a mediator between id and isuperego.
Example : Hunger must wait until someone provides food.
Ego acts by (drprris)
• Projection : projecting one’s own inadequacy on to someone else
to feel more comfortable. Ex: A bad work will be blamed on his
tools.
• Denial : Denying the existence of threatening situation so as to
avoid tackling it. Ex: Rough the tooth pain is severe, pretending
as if it is not painful inorder to avoid dentist.
This may be of advantageous or even disadvantageous prevents
to cope with the anxiety and crisis, individual may not realistically
cope-up with life.
• Identification – Initiating the qualities of some one else to vent
frustration.
• Regression : IT is the inappropriate response as a result of
confrontation with an anxiety producing situation. Ex: thumb
sucking in older children.
5
6. • Repression: It is the process of unconscious forgetting for
repression of painful experiences to subconscious mind.
• Rationalization : It is the development of logical excuses to
explain behaviours. Ex: Refusing to complete because of fear of
failure but using some other excuse.
• Sublimation : It is the redirection of socially unacceptable drive
into socially approved channels to allow the discharge of
instinctive impulses in an acceptable form. Ex: Sadist becoming
a butcher.
Superego:
It may be linked to a social coscience. It is that part of personality
which is the internalized representation of the values and morals of
society as taught to the child by the parents and others. It is derived from
the familial, culture restrictions placed upon a growing child.
It develops from the internalization of feeling of good and bad,
love-hate, praising-forbidding, reward and punishment of both parents.
It continues during school age and in fact throughout life based
on identification on with important figures such as teacher sports heroes
6
7. etc. If child identifies aggressive, violent parent, it leads to the
possibility of uncivilized behaviour.
Thus,
- the id seeks pleasure.
- The ego tests reality.
- Superego strives for perfection
Psychosexual theory:
Freud defined five phases of psychosexual development based on
a theory of energy or drives and called as libids.
Originally libido represented sexual drive and energy, the
definition was later broadened to encompass all the pleasurable
activities.
He divided the whole personality into five stages and linked to
pleasurable erotic body zones.
- Oral
- Anal
- Phallic (oedipal)
- Latency
- Genital
7
8. Oral stages: 0-1 years
Theories of emotional and social development Freud, Erikson and
Bowlby)
Occurs during the first year of life. The mouth serves as the
primary zone of pleasure and the balery gains its most intense pleasure
from sucking and mouthing when deprived of adequate mothering, the
baby’s behaviour reveals its distress with exaggerated cry, tension and
muscle rigidity. When mothering becomes adequate, these acute
symptoms often disappear.
The major developmental task taking place is weaning. Adult
characteristic arising from complete resolution of this stage results in
active behaviour such as smoking, drinking, reading.
Anal stage (2-3 years)
The main feature of this stage is the childs acquisition of
voluntary bowel and bladder control. The baby derives pleasure from
the process of elimination during the first six months. the increased
control of three functions helps gaining cognitive and locomotor skills.
Toilet training is the first and prototype cooperative activity seen
between child and parent. Ensuring the successful completion of toilet
8
9. training requires adaptability and sensitivity by the parent because of the
childs immaturity. Too rigid and too flexible approach is said to
influence the childs emerging personality. Incomplete resolution results
in adult personality characteristics of untidiness and obsessionality.
Phallic stage (3-6 years)
Childs libidinal energy is directed towards general activities.
Children are now able to discover the genital differences between sexes.
During this period, the male child develops and the “oedipal
complex” a desire to have sexual relation with the mother. This leads
him to perceive his father as a rival for his mothers attention and
affection. The little boy adapts his fathers. Manner, attitude and interest
so that his father will not hurt him by becoming like his father he hopes
to win his mothers love. The boy also fears that his father will retaliate
against him by castrating him and this fear is called “castration anxiety”.
Similar explanation are applied for girls, sexual conflict and is
termed as “electra-complex”.
The other prominent feature of this stage is the emergence of
jealous and competitive feeling towards peers and siblings.
9
10. The unsatisfactory resolution of this oedipal conflict manifests
itself in later life as sexual conflicts are concerning sexual role and
identify and also inability to perform intimate sexual relationships.
Latency stage: (6-12 years)
This period is so called because of its relative tranquility
compared with the emotionally stormy periods of the phallic and genital
periods. The sexual feelings subside after the resolution of the oedipal
complex. The child focuses his attention on the same-sex parent, leading
to increased identification with and role modeling on this parent peer
group relations are predominately with the same sex.
A major feature of this period is the establishment of the ego
mechanisms of defense. The important function of the developing ego
was to manage the excessive anxiety that arises from the inevitable
stressful nature of some childhood experiences.
The exposure to stress and anxiety is essential for the child’s well
being, as it provides the child with opportunity to learn to cope with
unpleasant or distressing feeling.
The most common defense mechanisms:
Denial – Reluctance to accept the potentially stressful event.
10
11. Rationalization – Attempt to minimize the psychological consequence of
the event.
Regression – Occurrence of developmentally immature behaviour often
at times of stress.
Displacement – Transfer of aggressive feelings from their original
source to another person, usually less powerful or important.
Genital stage: (12 years onwards)
The endocrinological and physiological changes at puberty and
sexual interest re-emerges and a good outcome of this stage is dependent
on the well or otherwise how the individual has dealt with other stages
earlier. Two stages the oral and the phallic, are particularly crucial. The
poor resolution of the oral phase may preclude the foundation of close,
trusting relationships with the opposite sex, whereas unresolved phallic
conflicts may lead to confusion over sexual role and behaviour. In
addition to the establishment of sexual role, the older adolescent will
develop the tasks like separation from parents, career choice and
acquisition of own ethical and moral values.]
A major criticism of Redudian theory is that its concepts do not
lead themselves reacting to empirical or scientific investigation, so that
11
12. it is different to prove or more importantly, disprove the validity of the
theory.
Psychosocial theory: 1965 Erik Erikson
Erikson modified Freud’s theory by superimposition
psychosocial and psychosexual factors simultaneously contributing to
the personality development of the child.
This theory postulates that society responds to the child’s basic
needs or developmental tasks in each specific period of life and states
that in doing so, society assures not only the childs healthy growth but
also the passage of society’s own culture and traditions. His approach
emphasize the dependent interaction of individual and society.
Trust Versus mistrust (0-1 years)
This phase occupies the first year and is mainly concerned with
the establishment of secure and stable relationships between mother and
child.
The successful outcome is there, the child feels that the world is
predictable, safe and secure by contrast a basic sense of mistrust implies
that the world is cruel, eratic and unable to onact the needs.
12
13. Good outcome – sense, stable relationships.
Bad outcome – insecure, unsatisfactory relationships.
Anatomy Vs shame, doubt : 2-3
This phase is characterized by the child’s increasing powers of
mobility and locomotor skills, providing the basis for the development
of some independence and anatomy. The new skills are very vulnerable
the child’s self-confidence is easily undermined leading to the negative
outcome of shame and doubt.
Good outcome – capable and competent.
Bad outcome – insecure, unsatisfactory relationships.
Initiative Vs guilt (4-5 years)
The child rapidly expands the skills part in language, so that
exploration and activity the order of the day.
If the child’s exuberance and enthusiasm are too restricted by
parents or other, then despondency and defeatism predominate, leaving
the child with a sense of guilt.
Good outcome – confident about skills.
Bad outcome – resistant.
13
14. Industry Vs inferiority (6-12 years)
Schooling and peer relations predominate in this phase, so that
successful child becomes literate, numerate and socially integrated.
Failure to achieve this leads to a sense of inferiority and inadequacy
with a low self-esteem.
Good outcome – literate, numerate and socially integrated.
Bad outcome – socially isolated.
Identify Vs role confusion (13-18 years)
Two tasks, sexual identity and career identity are the major forces
of interest for the individual. Independence from the family and
developing one’s own value system become important during late
adolescence.
Good outcome – Suitable career choice and satisfactory leterosexual
relationship.
Bad outcome – uncertain of career, poor peer relations.
Intimacy Vs isolation – 19-25 years
Good outcome – stable relationship and good career.
Bad outcome – poor intimate relation and career choice.
14
15. Generativity Vs stagnation – 26-40 years:
Rear children in stable union.
Good outcome – family stability.
Bad outcome – unstable relationships.
Ego integrity Vs despair – 41+
Life’s success and failure
Good outcome – acceptance of life’s limitation.
Bad outcome – Despondency and despair.
The theory of hierarchy of needs:
According to this, the individuals prior of needs and motivation
affect the personality development:
Level I : Physiologic needs.
Needs essential for survival like hunger, thirst, fear.
Level II : Security needs:
Need for shelter and employment.
Level III : Social needs
Need to be loved and to have a sense or belonging.
15
16. Level IV : Esteem
Need to acquire personal work, competency and skills.
Level V : Self-actualization
Need to realize oneself.
Higher needs are not demonstrated until lower needs are fulfilled
The theory of separation – individuation
Mahler asserted that the psychologic development of an
individual proceeded in a continually unfolding the process, with critical
stages during the first three to four years of life. Initially the infant is
biologically and psychologically bound to the mother, the infant has
difficulty in distinguishing himself or herself from other. As the infants
sensory and motor skills improve he is capable of greater and newer
experience with the mother and environment, which fosters a greater
awareness of being separated from the mother. The more interactions the
infant has with the environment the more the infant learns how to
distinguish himself or separate from others, as an individual. The
16
17. interaction between a mother and infant determines how secure and
successful the infant is in achieving separation individuation.
This forms the basis of relationships with others
Behaviour learning theories
These theories differ from other theories in that:
- They are not stage theory.
- They are not solely concerned with childhood but can be applied
to all the age groups.
- They are based on learning theory principles.
- They are a historical in their approach to understand the
behaviour i.e. they concentrate on circumstances for explaining
behaviour rather than emphasizing the role of previous events or
experiences.
“Learning is defined as a permanent change in behaviour as a
result of experience”. There are many theories of learning. The
important one relevant to child development are
17
18. - Learning by direct reinforcement Stimulus contingent
(Classical conditioning)
Response contingent
- Learning by initiation.
- Learning by induction.
Learning by direct reinforcement
Reinforcement is the presentation or removal of a stimulus after a
response which alter the subsequent frequency of that response. This is
the central idea underlying this approach to the acquisition or
modification of behaviour.
a. Classical conditioning theory (Stimulus-contingent
reinforcement)
Originally studied by Pavlov
An un-conditioned stimulus is presented. Hereby eliciting a reflex
unconditioned response.
Repeated presentation of the two stimuli leads over time to the
establishment of a conditioned response.
Ex: Ist visit
White coat – pain or injection.
18
19. (Neutral stimulus) (Unconditioned stimulus)
Pair or injection – Fear and Crying
(Unconditioned stimulus) (Response)
2nd
visit
Sight of white coat pain of injection
(conditioned stimulus) (unconditioned stimulus)
Pain of injection free and crying
(Unconditioned stimulus) (Response)
Ex: Food – Salivation food – bell (neutral) – all bell – salivation
b. Response – contingent reinforcement theory: (Operant or
instrumental conditioning)
According to this, individual behaviour is modified or shaped
according to the reinforces associated with that behaviour. The strength
and persistence of the behaviour of influenced by the schedule or pattern
of reinforcement.
Ex: When the child is good, mother says he is good child learns
to produce good behaviour so as to receive praise from the mother.
Skinner described 4 basic types of operant conditioning,
distinguished by the nature of the consequence.
19
20. 1. Positive reinforcement:
If a pleasant consequence follows a response the response has
been positively reinforced and the behaviour that lead to this pleasant
consequence becomes more likely in the future.
Ex: If a child is given a reward such as a toy for behaving well
during her first dental visit, she is more likely to behave well during her
subsequent dental visits also.
Negative reinforcement – contingency
It involves the withdrawal of an unpleasant stimulus after a
response.
Like positive reinforcement it increases the likelihood of a
response in the future.
Example: A child who views a visit to dental clinic as an
unpleasant experience, may throw a temper tantrum. If this behaviour
succeeds from escaping the treatment, the behaviour is told to be
reinforced.
Omission (Time-out):
It involves the removal of a stimulus after a particular response.
20
21. Example: If a child who throws a temper trantrum and his
favourite is taken away for a short time as a consequence of this
behaviour the probability of similar misbehaviour is decreased.
Punishment:
Occurs when an unpleasant stimulus is presented after a response.
This also decreases the probability that behaviour that promoted
punishment will occur in the future. Ex: Voice control.
Learning by initiation:
Learning by observing is a method for altering behaviour.
Bandura (1969) showed that modeling of behaviour occurred
readily among children in many situations. Two factors influence the
acquisition of such behaviour.
For ex: a child may observe that a person who greets some one in
a friendly situation is usually happy themselves (direct effect) and in
turn this behaviour is usually followed by a warm response from child
person (indirect effect).
This explains in acquisition of more simple behaviour.
21
22. Learning of induction
This helps to know the acquisition of more complex and nature
social behaviour.
This is also called as cognitive – behavioural model. As children
nature, their increased cognitive capacity enables them to establish some
general principles governing pro-social behaviour. These are triangular
to Piagets notion of abstract or formed operation thinking.
Cognitive theory: 1929 – Jean Piaget
A Swiss psychologist has elaborated the most comprehensive
theory of cognitive development.
Survival of the fittest and most adaptable is the driving force
underlying development. Accordingly, in order to survive, the individual
must have the capacity to adapt to the demands of the environment.
Cognitive development is the resist of interaction between the individual
and the environment.
22
23. Piaget’s major concepts:
Adaptation Assimilation.
Accommodation
Equilibration
Schema
Operations
Assimilation:
Describes the ability of the child to deal with new situations and
problems within his age-specific skills. Ex: systemic desensitization
existing learned maladaptive responses by substituting more appropriate
ones.
Accommodation:
Modification of strategy as a result of new experience.
Equilibration:
The process of balancing assimilation and accommodation.
Schema:
Internal representation of some specific action present from birth
(sucking).
23
24. Operations:
Internal cognitive rules that arise later childhood.
Piaget describes four main phases of cognitive development.
a. Sensorimotor (0-2 year)
Schemes
b. Pre-operational (2-7year)
c. Concrete – operational (7-12 year)
Operations
d. Formal-operational (12 year and onwards)
Sensorimotor :
Initially, behaviour is dominated by innate reflexes such as
feeding, sucking and following, hence the name for this stage. Gradually
the infant realizes the distinction between self and non-self. The infant
also realizes that his behaviour can influence the environment, so that
intentional and purposeful behaviour begins. Finally, the infant achieves
object permanence, (an object still exists even though it is no longer
visible).
24
25. Pre-operational period:
Langauge development greatly occurs. Thinking in this phase is
described as egocentric and animistic. Egocentric refers to the child’s
tendency to regard everything in the world as endowed with feeling
thoughts and wishes.
The child also believes that every event has a preceding cause,
rejecting the concept of chance coincidence.
Compete operational:
Thinking becomes more logical. Conservations of no, volume
and mass is successively achieved during this period. The child becomes
less egocentric and is capable of seeing events from another persons
standpoint.
Formal operational: (12 years onwards)
This stage represents the most complex mode of thinking. Person
has the ability to think, to formulate general laws and principles, to
devise and test hypothesis and even an scientific investigation.
25
26. Comment or Piaget’s theory:
Though most psychologist accept the Piagetion idea of orderly
sequence to cognitive development most research has failed to
demonstrate the existence of specific cognitive structures proposed by
Piaget for the concrete and formal operational stages.
Additionally, Piagetian explanation for the younger child’s
inability to solve conservation problems, and also the absence of
necessary cognitive structures has been questioned by more recent
studies (Lee 1989). They think that the critical factor in the child’s
failure solve such problems may be inadequate memory capacity rather
than inadequate cognitive ability.
Cognitive – Perception of an art distinct from emotions or volition.
Volition – Voluantary act (willing).
Clinical application
It is necessary to assess the child’s behaviour is developmental
(age appropriate) or psychopathological (abnormal behaviour).
Ex: Separation anxiety is a normal reaction in children between
the ages 9 months and 4 years. However if the same response is seen in
26
27. a 6 year old would be abnormal. Similarly temper tantrum in a 3-year
old would not be pathological.
Child hood psychopathology is most commonly considered under
following headings:
a. Abnormality of emotions.
b. Abnormality of behaviour.
c. Abnormality of social relationships.
Anxiety and depressive symptoms are important features of
emotional disturbances.
Anxiety has physical manifestations like palpitation or by month
as well as psychological components such as fear or apprehension.
Both psychoanalytical and social learning theories explain this
psychoanalytical theory describes that the immature child learns to cope
with excessive anxiety by adaptive mechanisms. Social learning theories
explain anxiety in terms of exposure to situations which become
associated with anxiety through classical conditioning or modeling.
According psychoanalytical theories, separation anxiety causes
the development of depressive responses in later childhood and adult
life.
27
28. Modelling theories regard many behavioural problems as arising
from the lack of exposure to normal behavioural problems as arising
from the lack of exposure to normal behavioural patterns or exposure to
deviant models. Treatment for this focuses on exposure and
reinforcement of socially approved behaviour.
Children with emotional or behavioural problems are usually
socially isolated and unpopular with their peer group as they exclude
themselves or are excluded as a result of deviant behaviour.
The active supervision of the developing dentition is a responsibility of
the pedodontists. Seeing things from the beginning is the most
advantageous. By making a detailed studies of dentition from initiation
through eruption till functional occlusion, we may be able to obtain a
clear concept of how occlusion develops and how its development can
be guided.
Occlusion is the approximation of upper and lower teeth, centric
occlusion is the maximum intercuspation between upper and lower teeth
centric relation is defined as the contact of teeth (U & L) in most
retruded position of the mandible so that condyle is in its most posterior
position with respect to glenoid fossa for the maximum comfort of the
patient.
