The volume's topic was chosen in part because of the rapidly
growing salience of dyadic research perspectives in developmental
psychology, but also in social psychology and in fields such as
communication and family studies. It provides the most complete
representation now available on current theory and research on the
significance of personal relationships in child and adolescent
development. This volume addresses the ways in which the study of
social development has been altered by an emphasis on research
questions and techniques for studying children and adolescents in
the context of their significant dyadic relationships. Leading
scholars--many of them pioneers in the concepts and methods of
dyadic research--have contributed chapters in which they both
report findings from recent research and reflect on the
implications for developmental psychology. Their work encompasses
studies of relationships with parents, siblings, friends, and
romantic partners. Opening chapters set the stage by describing the
key characteristics of social-development research from a dyadic
perspective and outlining key themes and contemporary issues in the
field. It concludes with commentaries from distinguished senior
scholars identifying important directions for future
research.
