Full Description
Although the field of cognitive neuroscience is relatively young, it has already had a significant impact on the ways we think about and measure psychological phenomena. The focus of this special issue of 'Human Development' is how both cognitive and affective neuroscience can beneficially inform the developmental psychologist. Three groups of neuroscientists explain how their work may bridge the gap to basic human development research to better understand psychological development, e.g. how our knowledge of early brain development can aid our understanding of both normal and atypical development. Finally prominent developmental psychologist, Jerome Kagan, comments on the papers and provides a perspective on the possibilities and limitations of a neuroscience approach to human development. Scientists interested in learning about areas of research where a bridge between psychology and neuroscience can be built should read this issue. It is an informative, state-of-the-art account of the links between neuroscience and human behaviour work.
