Human Development
Studying the process of human development across cultures provides us with an opportunity to improve the human condition as well as, hopefully, to acquire the knowledge needed to live more satisfying lives. We therefore begin with an overview of how diverse social science and life science researchers (collectively known as developmentalists) approach the monumental task of studying humans over the course of the life span. Our discussion includes the goals of the scientific community, the recognized framework for studying the life span, what aspects of development warrant extensive examination, and what scientific methods are used to conduct research with humans.rnrnrnHuman development can be described as a process of becoming someone different while remaining in some respects the same person over an extended period of time. Development takes place in three essential area-physical, cognitive, and emotional-social. In other words, you develop when your body, mind, and social relationship change. But many factors-institutions, society, and family-affect individuals and can help or hinder their personal development.rn
