24 Ιαν 2024 · Critical period is an ethological term that refers to a fixed and crucial time during the early development of an organism when it can learn things that are essential to survival. These influences impact the development of processes such as hearing and vision, social bonding, and language learning.
25 Ιουλ 2023 · This article will explore the timeline, impacting events, and subsequent consequences of the critical period on brain development. It also explores the distinction between critical periods and sensitive periods and what happens to the brain once the critical period ends.
Sensitive and critical periods are developmental periods that are especially pertinent in shaping neural and behavioral outcomes. Sensitive periods refer to developmental time windows during which experiences have an especially strong impact on brain organization.
In developmental psychology and developmental biology, a critical period is a maturational stage in the lifespan of an organism during which the nervous system is especially sensitive to certain environmental stimuli.
Brain plasticity is maximal at specific time windows during early development known as critical periods (CPs), during which sensory experience is necessary to establish optimal cortical representations of the surrounding environment.
3.4 Critical (but elastic) periods for development. Critical periods are time points in development when experiences strongly influence neurogenesis, brain sculpting, and learning (Hubel and Wiesel, 1963); for example, ocular dominance columns in the visual cortex are established during early post-natal life (reviewed in Berardi et al., 2000).
