Development in families...

We've looked at four approaches to studying development in the past weeks:

  • biological
  • cognitive
  • socio-historical
  • transactional

Where do the readings for this week (Kreppner, Pittman & Chase-Lansdale, and Eccles, Jacobs & Harold) fit within these frameworks?

What ideas or lenses might the authors take from other approaches to make modifications that would make their studies more informative? (What didn't they take into account?)

But first...

...technical questions about the studies?
