25 Ιουλ 2023 · Critical periods are specific windows of time during development when the brain is exceptionally receptive to certain types of learning and experiences. Once this period is over, acquiring those skills or attributes becomes significantly more challenging.
24 Ιαν 2024 · The critical period is a biologically determined stage of development where an organism is optimally ready to acquire some pattern of behavior that is part of typical development. This period, by definition, will not recur at a later stage.
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.
A critical period is a time during early postnatal life when the development and maturation of functional properties of the brain, its “plasticity,” is strongly dependent on experience or environmental influences. This concept plays an important role in the nature versus nurture debate (Sengpiel, 2007).
4 Σεπ 2007 · What is the critical period? Also known as the sensitive period, the critical period is a time during early postnatal life when the development and maturation of functional properties of the brain, its ‘plasticity’, is strongly dependent on experience or environmental influences.
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.
