A wide range of approaches are used to investigate children′s development. This book, aimed at advanced undergraduates and postgraduate students in psychology and related areas, provides a guide to the key theories and methods used by researchers.

Carefully chosen articles are accompanied by a commentary from the author that helps students to understand the rationale for a study, the choice of design and assessment measures, use of statistics, and the interpretation of results. A wide range of recent research papers is included to cover observational and experimental methods from infancy to adolescence.

The research papers are introduced by two chapters that consider the relationship between theory and methods, explaining how models of development differ from one another, and how they can be tested through experimental studies.

This innovative text is perfect for all advanced students taking courses in developmental psychology or child development.
