Part 6: Brain Development
1. Read the statements below and identify if they are TRUE or FALSE regarding brain
development in the early years.
Statement True or
False
Connections (synapses) between neurons in the brain occur when the brain
is sending and receiving messages due to stimulation. True
The first five (5) years are the least important in early childhood years
regarding brain development. True
By age 3, a child’s brain has more connections or synapses than an adult. True
Brain development is not shaped by social experience. false
Critical periods and windows of opportunity maximise learning possibilities. True
The brain will automatically prune off (synaptic pruning) when brain cells
are not being stimulated and not used and when a poor emotional
environment of non-responsive adults exists.
True
Plasticity of the brain means that the brain is able to be reworked and
neural pathways reorganised creating structural and functional changes. True
Early stimulation does not have any effect on brain development. false
Poor nutrition, neglect, abuse, stress and trauma do not impact brain
development. false
Page 9 of 22

Statement True or
False
Attachment is one of the most powerful influences of brain growth. True
Increased stress experienced in the early years will increase higher levels of
cortisol which has a negative effect on brain growth and development. True

this healthy development and with this brain is not able to received positive
simulation.
