Full Description
This exam investigates developmental neurobiology focusing on how neural systems mature and affect behavior throughout the lifespan. Candidates will discuss critical periods of development and their consequences for cognitive and emotional growth.
The relevance of this topic extends to understanding developmental disorders and tailoring early interventions. Knowledge in this area contributes to educational psychology and informs practices for supporting individuals with neurodevelopmental challenges.
Candidates will be assessed on their ability to articulate concepts related to neural development, including the roles of genetics, environment, and experience in shaping neural circuits and behaviors.
Reviewing case studies of developmental milestones will be advantageous, as these examples will reinforce their arguments during verbal assessments.
Sample Questions
- What are the key factors that influence neural development during critical periods?
- How do environmental variables contribute to neurodevelopmental disorders?
