Produktbeschreibung
The Handbook of Research Methods in Developmental Science brings together a team of leading developmental scientists to provide a state-of-the-art overview of methods and approaches associated with the study of human development. It contains accessible contributions from some of the most renowned developmental scientists in the field. Topics discussed include: traditional and complex designs in developmental research and the strengths and challenges inherent in each; the use of experimentation and quasi-experimentation in studies of development; developmental measurement issues; conceptualizations of change and approaches to assess it; intervention approaches to promote development in high-risk samples; and cutting-edge research that is forging new and exciting directions in developmental research. This volume is a vital resource for students and scholars wishing to gain a working understanding of research approaches and issues in the developmental sciences.

Rezensionen
"As the title suggests, this is a wide-ranging handbook forstudents and researchers covering five key areas: developmentalresearch designs, issues around development measurement, dataanalysis, methods in developmental psychology and new directions indevlopmental research. A state of the art treatment." TheScientific and Medical Network

"This book will become a classic. It fills a void indevelopmental science by providing a comprehensive review ofdevelopmental designs and methods in a way that is both accessibleand compelling. By providing examples of differing methods usedacross different domains of inquiry, the Handbook does anexcellent job of capturing the variation in research that isdevelopmental science. I will use it as a reference for years tocome." Sarah Mangelsdorf, University of Illinois atUrbana-Champaign

"A fascinating, essential resource for developmentalscientists. This volume examines cutting-edge issues in design,measurement, analytic methods, and applications in chapters byleading researchers. As they profile state-of-the-art methods inspecific research areas, the contributors offer a portrayal ofdevelopmental science as innovative, challenging, and vigorous.This is an important collection that experienced and noviceinvestigators will find valuable." Ross Thompson,University of California, Davis
