These examples include typical physical, cognitive, or socio-emotional developmental milestones. Each scenario also includes descriptions of developmental theories that relate to infants. Use Figure 5-16 Developmental Milestones: Newborn to Age 1 in the text to identify the age range of the infant in months. Then, list the theorist and theory that applies to each scenario and explain your reasoning.Jimmy is beginning to pull himself up to stand. He grabs onto the edges of tables, chairs, and other furniture to independently stand up. Every time he pulls his body up, his mom praises him by saying, “Good job, Jimmy, you stood up!” As a result, Jimmy has been pulling himself up more often.Age: Theorist: Theory involved: How has Jimmy’s mom influenced his development?
