The use of Chatgpt is not allowed. I will copy and paste your answer into ChatGPT and inquire about its authorship, specifically questioning whether it was generated by AI rather than composed by a human.

Discussion questions: (pick one question to answer)

Q1. Do infants show a preference in trusting specific genders based on which parent was more physically present in their first year of life?

Q2. When a baby points at something they might want, how does our reaction affect the baby’s cognitive learning?

Grading:

1. Responses to the discussion questions should be made in sentence/paragraph form.
2. Address the questions as much as possible (don’t let the discussion stray).
3. Bring in related prior knowledge if/when you can (work experience, prior coursework, readings, etc.). This greatly adds to the richness of the conversation.
4. Use proper etiquette (proper language, typing, etc.). Please avoid using acronyms (ROFL rolling on floor laughing, BTW by the way, or FYI for your information) or text talk (such as C U, B4, cuz, u for you, etc.). While the Discussion Board is meant to be an open and safe space for discussion and exchanges, we should aim to maintain appropriate adherence to grammar and style. Write any response as a formal contribution to professional discourse.
5. Avoid shouting your message. Do not use all capital letters (caps).
6. Remember we are looking for critical thinking, depth of thinking and synthesis of material. Make sure your ideas and arguments are sufficiently developed.
