According to Erik Erikson, infants develop either trust or mistrust and toddlers develop autonomy or shame and doubt depending on how people in their social world interact with and guide them.

Describe two parent/caregiver actions that will lead to the positive resolution of trust, and two behaviors that will lead to the positive resolution of autonomy.  Be specific and detailed.  What does Chapter 7 suggest as strategies to encourage trust and autonomy?

Hint: In answering this question think about parenting strategies that promote a sense of trust in the people and places in the infants world.  Remember this is the first 12 months of life.  What can parents do to promote a sense of independence and self rule for toddlers, 12 -18 months.  These are very basic but important tendencies that we want our children to possess.  These qualities will affect them for the rest of their lives.

Topic Selection

As a first step in designing an ethically appropriate plan for a psychological research study, a research proposal, you will identify a problem you want to solve or research questions you want to answer in solving a problem. This will be the topic of the research proposal that you will develop throughout this course. Your paper should be 3–5 pages in length.

Complete the following:

• Provide a research problem and research question that will guide the research proposal. The research problem and research question should be applicable to your particular area of interest.
• Describe the selected topic briefly. This description should be brief but specific enough to present an overview of what your proposal will cover and allow the instructor to assess the acceptability of the project.
• Describe why this topic is important to research in the context of current literature on the topic. Provide supporting information as to why this particular topic was chosen for the research proposal.
• Identify and describe a specific psychological theory or theories, related to the chosen topic, which serves as the foundation for the proposed research. State the theory and describe how this theory pertains to the proposed research.
• Include a literature search strategy that allows you to identify literature related to a research proposal.

To ensure you are meeting the objectives of this assignment, please review the Topic Selection Scoring Guide. In your paper, include in-text citations and a reference section at the end. Make sure your paper is formatted based on current APA guidelines. Refer to APA Style Central for guidance in using proper APA style. See the APA Style and Format section of the Writing Center for instructions on accessing and using APA Style Central.

Your topic selection is not a part of the proposal itself, but the preliminary preparation for it. You can use the proposal template as a guide to show what you are moving toward, but you will not be ready to use the template to present your work until you complete the Introduction assignment in Unit 4.

Make sure you write your topic paper in third person. Do not use personal pronouns in your paper. Even though you have an interest in the topic and a passion for the research, it is not about you. The goal is adding to the fund of knowledge available on this topic in the profession.
