***How does research on early deprivation and enrichment shed light on the question of whether infancy is a sensitive period of development?
What will be an ideal response?
Evidence that infancy is a sensitive period comes from natural experiments, such as babies placed in orphanages who were later adopted into families. Prolonged early deprivation can disrupt brain growth and result in persistent intellectual impairments and mental health problems. To be maximally effective, intensive intervention aimed at breaking the pattern of disadvantaged conditions must begin early. Environments that overwhelm infants with stimulation beyond their current capacities also undermine development.
