Developmental science is an interdisciplinary scientific field
dedicated to describing, understanding, and explaining change in
behavior across the lifespan and the psychological, environmental,
and biological processes that co-determine this change during the
organism's development. Developmental science is thus a broad
discipline that lies at the intersection of psychology, biology,
sociology, anthropology and other allied disciplines. Advancing
Developmental Science: Philosophy, Theory, and Method reflects this
broad view of developmental science, and reviews the philosophical,
theoretical, and methodological issues facing the field. It does so
within the Process-Relational paradigm, as described by
developmentalist Willis Overton over the course of his career.
Within that framework, this book explores development in a number
of specific cognitive, neurobiological, and social domains, and
provides students and researchers with a comprehensive suite of
conceptual and methodological tools to describe, explain, and
optimize intraindividual change across the lifespan.
