An Introductory Reader in Developmental Psychology (Greenwich Readers, 5) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Greenwich Readers is a major new anthology series designed specifically to supplement teaching resources at undergraduate level in the following subject areas: social sciences, humanities, psychology and law. Drawing together a varied and frequently inaccessible range of essential readings and key texts, this ongoing programme has been carefully selected to provide a detailed overview of individual subjects and forms a framework for specific courses. The overall series has been devised to offer a solution to many of the problems students encounter in accessing set course texts, and it is hoped the anthologies will alleviate both pressure on library resources as well as ensuring higher levels of course completion. All volumes benefit from introductory essays and appropriate linking passages, and full textual references are included where available.
An Introductory Reader in Developmental Psychology is a compilation of classic and recent studies aimed at the new student. The book comprises empirical and theoretical work on the role of early experience in development; perception and cognition in infancy; attachment in infancy; language acquisition; cognitive development in childhood; social relationships in childhood; and cognitive and social development in adolescence. It is aimed at first- and second-year undergraduates, and includes a statistics primer to assist students who have not taken an introductory course in statistics.
