Chapter 1: Studying Early Childhood Development in a
Diverse World


Chapter 1 Learning Outcome Quizzes
Learning Outcome 1.1: Define early childhood development and explain how qualitative
development is different from quantitative development.

[Q1]
According to the textbook, which of the following statements best defines early childhood
development?
1. The increase in knowledge and number of skills of young children over the first 5 years of
life
2. The process of qualitative and quantitative changes in children from birth to age 8 [correct]
3. The increase in sensorimotor intelligence between ages 3 and 9
4. The fixed order of acquiring skills and knowledge at each age from birth to age 7

[Feedback for Answer Choice 1]
This statement suggests that children simply acquire greater knowledge and abilities as they
age—a purely quantitative view—and does not address qualitative changes. Also, early
childhood is defined as birth to age 8 in the book.
[Feedback for Correct Answer 2]
Children do not simply become larger or obtain more knowledge as they develop. As they
develop, they become qualitatively different people, thinking and behaving in uniquely different
ways.
[Feedback for Answer Choice 3]
This statement addresses only one kind of intelligence that occurs in infancy. It does not include
other domains, such as physical or social development, or types of thinking that appear after
infancy.
[Feedback for Answer Choice 4]
This statement suggests that all children will acquire skills or knowledge in a fixed order, which
is not always the case.

[Q2]
Which of the following is the best example of a child becoming a qualitatively, not just
quantitatively, different person with development?
1. A child overcomes fears by having a deeper understanding of the world. [correct]
2. A child acquires more mathematical skills and concepts.
3. A child forms a wider network of friendships and acquaintances.
4. A child becomes attached to multiple caregivers, including teachers and parents.

[Feedback for Correct Answer 1]
In development, a child does not simply acquire more experience or knowledge about things
that are frightening; the child can now interpret and apply his or her knowledge to overcome
these fears.
[Feedback for Answer Choice 2]
This statement implies that in development children simply learn more of something—in this
case, more skills or knowledge. It does not recognize that children think and solve problems
completely differently. They can apply and refine skills and knowledge in new ways as they
develop.
[Feedback for Answer Choice 3]
This answer is focused on quantitative changes in development—simply making more friends
and acquaintances. It does not address how the nature of friendships or the child’s knowledge
or social behaviors change with development.
[Feedback for Answer Choice 4]
This answer suggests that attachment to caregivers is simply the process of becoming attached
to more people—a purely quantitative view of this aspect of development. It does not address
how the quality of these relationships changes with development.

[Q3]
Which of the following examples relates most specifically to quantitative change in a child’s
development?
1. Grayson has a strategy for figuring out which bowl is bigger than the others
2. Grayson stopped being egocentric and taking toys away from others
3. Grayson grew two inches in the past six months [correct]
4. Grayson now asks for milk rather than crying for it

[Feedback for Answer Choice 1]
Grayson’s development of a strategy for figuring out which bowl is biggest is an example of
qualitative change.
[Feedback for Answer Choice 2]
Grayson’s change in showing less egocentrism is an example of qualitative change.
[Feedback for Correct Answer 3]
Grayson’s growth in height represents quantitative change.
[Feedback for Answer Choice 4]
Grayson’s developmental change from crying for milk to asking for it represents qualitative
change.

[Q4]
The definition of child development includes which of the following?
