About this title

Synopsis

Stability and Change in Development brings together an international group of developmental specialists to explore the major methodological and conceptual approaches to the study of development with the aim of integrating these heterogenous approaches. Each contributor either summarizes a major methodological perspective within developmental psychology (such as developmental mechanisms, developmental differences that vary between individuals, and developmental changes that are shared by most people), or provides a commentary that enlarges or differentiates the preceding contributor′s summary. By examining the inherent biases that shape the dominant methodological approaches to development, this book offers unique insights into how new methods could be used for studying development. Appropriate for researchers and students in methodology and development, Stability and Change in Development will change how development is viewed and studied.
