  • Developmental Cascades

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 64
    • English
    Developmental Cascades, Volume 64 in the Advances in Child Development and Behavior series, brings together papers that share a focus on cascading influences across domains and developmental time. The contributors are leading experts in the field of developmental science in areas such as perceptual development, language development, motor development, social development, cognitive development, academic achievement, media use, and children at risk for anxiety and depression. The papers highlight theoretical issues around processes that give rise to cascading effects of experiences in infancy, early childhood, and adolescence using a variety of methods and study designs. Together, the papers showcase the types of methods, designs, and analytic approaches that bring rigor to understanding cascades in development. This volume provides a state-of-the art collection that will appeal to researchers, clinicians, educators, policy makers, and students across disciplines relevant to the science and practice of child learning and development.
