Special Issue on Developmental Psychology
Developmental psychology is the scientific study of how and why human beings change over the course
of their life. Originally concerned with infants and children, the field has
expanded to include adolescence, adult development, aging, and the entire lifespan.
Developmental psychologists aim to explain how thinking, feeling, and behaviors
change throughout life. This field examines change across three major
dimensions: physical development, cognitive development, and socioemotional
development. Within these three dimensions are a broad range of topics
including motor skills, executive functions, moral understanding, language
acquisition, social change, personality, emotional development, self-concept,
and identity formation.
