Heredity and environment interaction are contributors in development. There are genetic codes that are passed down from both parents to their child which make the child unique as they carry half of each parent’s genes. The environment surrounding a child also plays a factor on how the child develops. As mentioned by Santrock “The emerging view is that complex behaviors have some genetic loading that gives people a propensity for a particular development trajectory (Plomin, Defries, & Fulker 2007). However, the actual development requires more: an environment. Environmental influences range from the things we lump together under “nurture” (such as parenting, family dynamics, schooling, and neighborhood quality) to biological encounters (such as viruses, birth complications, and even biological events in cells) (Greenough & others 2004)” (p.48 2008). If the child is brought up with a nurturing family and environment, the child is more likely to follow in the same foot steps with his future family and will more than likely be friendlier. However if a child is brought up in a more hostile and negative environment, the child has many obstacles to overcome and the child may also reflect that negative up bringing out onto others.
I believe that heredity and the environment play major roles in the development of children. I’ve witnessed it first hand how each can affect the way we turn out. My cousin and I are not that far a part in age and both have had similar lives growing up. We were both raised by mother’s from a broken marriage with the help of grandparents. The only difference between us was that I was able to see my father every other weekend and he did not know his father at all. Having that male figure to guide you can make a difference. My cousin is doing better now but he use to get in trouble a lot while we were growing up and I only made a few mistakes but mostly tried my best to succeed. Our mother’s (they were sisters) were also different, my mom was more nurturing and provided discipline when needed whereas his mother was more passive and let him do whatever he wanted. The two different environments we grew up in I believe is what contributed how we developed as children.

For the second option, students can choose a single topic discussed in one of the three chapters and then find three articles on the topic. For instance, if you are interested in the topic of attachment disorders, you would find three separate articles related to this one topic.
Avoidant attachment, Resistant attachment, Disorganized attachment
So find an article for each and write about a one-paragraph annotated bibliography for each.

For this WTL, begin by reading the following blog post by some dude named Will who works for Piktochart (a company that sells software to assist in making visual communications): https://piktochart.com/blog/5-psychology-studies-that-tell-us-how-people-perceive-visual-information/#color-relations
I will admit, the source is dubious – but the summary of studies from the psychological literature on visual information processing is great! I also provide the primary sources for each of the studies discussed in this blog below. You don’t need to read them unless you want to!
For this WTL, read the blog. Then, open the infographic Applying Color Psychology to Marketing. Answer the questions below.
Based on what you learned about visual information processing in this blog:
Identify TWO specific problems with the design of this infographic (please ignore the factual content and focus on the visual components).
For each problem, indicate which aspects of visual information processing they violate (i.e., what in the blog post explains why this is bad?).
For each problem, describe how the authors might improve the design of their infographic.
What did you learn from this exercise that you might be able to apply to your own Infographic for Research Project #1?
You can either read the blogpost online at https://piktochart.com/blog/5-psychology-studies-that-tell-us-how-people-perceive-visual-information/#color-relations
