Emotional Development with Dr. Seth Pollak

from Brain Buzz Hosted by Kyle Gooderham

Today we are joined by Dr. Seth Pollak, Letters and Science Distinguished Professor of Psychology, Professor of Anthropology, Pediatrics, Neuroscience, and Public Affairs, and Laboratory Director of the Child Emotion Lab at the Waisman Centre at the University of Wisconsin - Madison, to talk about emotions. Seth shares with us how humans develop the ability to display and read emotions, and how important context is when interpreting emotions. Are reading and displaying emotions innate skills that we are born with or do we learn them through social experience? Is there a critical period during which infants and children need to experience social and emotional input or is reading emotion a lifelong learning endeavour? Does having adverse early life experiences prevent the development of emotion regulation and emotion learning? All this and much more in Emotional Development with Dr. Seth Pollak!
