Description

This developmental psychology text traces how children and adults understand causation and action from infancy through adulthood. The book argues that by the end of the second year of life, children have developed two distinct yet interconnected core theories explaining how things happen. Written by Psychology Press, this Essays in Developmental Psychology volume explores the foundational origins of causal reasoning in infants and follows the trajectory of these cognitive frameworks as they mature into sophisticated adult understanding. The text examines both causation and action as separate but related ways people comprehend events, providing insights into the fundamental psychological mechanisms underlying human thought and behaviour across the lifespan.

Key Features

Traces developmental progression of causal understanding from infancy through adulthood, offering comprehensive coverage of cognitive growth.

Presents the central theory that children differentiate two core frameworks for understanding causation and action by age two.

Part of the Essays in Developmental Psychology series published by Psychology Press, establishing academic credibility.

Explores the common origins and interconnections between causal reasoning and action understanding across developmental stages.
