2007 Journal of Developmental Processes Vol 2. Issue 2-Fall
Volume 2, Issue 2 Fall 2007
:
The Journal of Developmental Processes (JDP) focuses on the complex and dynamic biological, social, and cultural aspects of developmental systems in humans and other animals. Jointly sponsored by ICDL, The Council on Human Development (www.councilhd.ca) and the Milton and Ethel Harris Research Initiative (www.mehri.ca), it includes all the disciplines that contribute to our understanding of human development, the factors that influence it, the mechanisms through which they work, and the enormous variations observed throughout the course of life. The JDP embraces clinical studies and case descriptions in keeping with the traditions established by its predecessor, the Journal of Developmental and Learning Disorders. It also, however, focuses on a broad range of studies and narratives that are necessary for a full understanding of developmental processes.
The JDP is interested in both experimental and descriptive studies, including basic research, detailed case reports, ethnographic analysis, and theoretical explorations. Particularly welcome are innovative conceptual frameworks and methods that capture the complexity of developmental processes as well as assessment procedures and interventions that enable children and families to overcome mental health, developmental, and learning challenges. Send queries and submissions on clinical aspects and applications to Associate Editor Ira Glovinsky at ira1834@sbcglobal.net; all other queries and submissions and books for potential review should be sent to Editor Barbara J. King at bjking@wm.edu.
