Functional brain development in infants: elements of an interactive specialization framework.
نویسنده
چکیده
One future direction for cognitive development research involves a closer integration with our knowledge about the developing brain. I present a framework for analyzing and interpreting postnatal functional brain development in human infants. Three specific hypotheses contribute to this framework, within which a variety of phenomena associated with the neural basis of perception and cognition in normal and abnormal development can be characterized.

Developing a social brain.
UNLABELLED A new account of human postnatal functional brain development, interactive specialization (IS), is introduced and applied to one important domain of human development: the social brain. Behavioural, ERP and fMRI evidence from newborns, infants and children in face processing tasks is briefly reviewed, and is shown to be consistent with predictions from the IS account. CONCLUSION It...
متن کاملInteractive Specialization: A domain-general framework for human functional brain development?
A domain-general framework for interpreting data on human functional brain development is presented. Assumptions underlying the general theory and predictions derived from it are discussed. Developmental functional neuroimaging data from the domains of face processing, social cognition, word learning and reading, executive control, and brain resting states are used to assess these predictions. ...
متن کاملMapping functional brain development: Building a social brain through interactive specialization.
The authors review a viewpoint on human functional brain development, interactive specialization (IS), and its application to the emerging network of cortical regions referred to as the social brain. They advance the IS view in 2 new ways. First, they extend IS into a domain to which it has not previously been applied--the emergence of social cognition and mentalizing computations in the brain....
متن کاملReduced brain resting-state network specificity in infants compared with adults
PURPOSE Infant resting-state networks do not exhibit the same connectivity patterns as those of young children and adults. Current theories of brain development emphasize developmental progression in regional and network specialization. We compared infant and adult functional connectivity, predicting that infants would exhibit less regional specificity and greater internetwork communication com...
متن کاملThe emergence of the social brain network: evidence from typical and atypical development.
Several research groups have identified a network of regions of the adult cortex that are activated during social perception and cognition tasks. In this paper we focus on the development of components of this social brain network during early childhood and test aspects of a particular viewpoint on human functional brain development: "interactive specialization." Specifically, we apply new data...
