Description

Explore the developmental journey of how humans understand the world around them. This text from Psychology Press traces the line of development regarding how things happen, starting from origins in infancy and moving through to mature forms in adulthood. The book focuses on two distinct but related ways that people understand events, defined as causation and action. It addresses both concepts to provide a comprehensive view of cognitive development. A central theme of this work is the idea that by the end of the second year of life, children have differentiated two core theories of how things happen. These theories deal specifically with causation and action, sharing a common point of origin in the early stages of life. This book serves as a specialized resource for those studying the progression of psychological theories from early childhood to adulthood.
