内容説明

Intended for courses in child and adolescent development found in departments of psychology, educational psychology, home economics/family studies and nursing, the third edition of this text has been revised. It retains the original elements while citing new research and updating all references. The book is a portrayal of developmental psychology that takes applications seriously and shows how basic research has helped us to understand, and in many cases, to solve, a variety of real-world problems. The author has organized the book with the goals of helping students to understand that human development is a complex process that grows from the interactions of a changing person in a changing world, and that the knowledge gained from theoretically inspired empirical research has many real-life applications that will serve them in their roles as parents, teachers, nurses, day care-workers, pediatricians, or psychologists.
