About this book

As a follow up to Volume 7, contributors continue to explore the latest developments in developmental psychology. Here, researchers focus on the integration of theory and research and evaluates theoretical progress and advanced research. Continuing with the successful format of previous volumes in Annals of Theoretical Psychology, Volume 10 presents four major contributions--each accompanied by commentaries and replies to commentaries.

Reviews

From Book News, Inc.
This first of a two-volume work in the Annals series devoted to developmental psychology deals with the foundations of developmental theory and methodology in four sections: theoretcial problems in developmental psychology, relations between method and theory in development research--a partial-isomorphism view, the structure of developmental theory, and the concept of development in individual and social change. (The second volume--to appear as volume 8 of the Annals--will address theoretical issues in developmental psychology.)
