Developmental Psychology

Developmental psychology is the experimental study of how and why human beings change over the course of their life. Authentically troubled with infants and children, the field has expanded to consist of adolescence, adult development, aging and the entire lifespan. Developmental psychologists are intended to explain how thinking, feeling, and behaviors change throughout life. This field considers change across three major dimensions: physical development, cognitive development and social-emotional development. Within these three dimensions are an immense range of topics including motor skills, executive functions, moral understanding, language acquisition, social change, personality, emotional development, self-concept and identity formation.
