Young Children Learning

Understanding Children’s Worlds

Series Editor: Judy Dunn

The study of children’s development can have a profound inﬂuence on

how children are brought up, cared for and educated. Many psychologists

argue that, even if our knowledge is incomplete, we have a responsibility

to attempt to help those concerned with the care, education and study of

children by making what we know avalable to them. The central aim of

this series is to encourage developmental psychologists to set out the

ﬁndings and the implications of their research for others – teachers,

doctors, social workers, students and fellow researchers – whose work

involves the care, education and study of young children and their

families. The information and the ideas that have grown from recent

research form an important resource which should be available to them.

This series provides an opportunity for psychologists to present their

work in a way that is interesting, intelligible and substantial, and to

discuss what its consequences may be for those who care for, and teach

children: not to offer simple prescriptive advice to other professionals,

but to make important and innovative research accessible to them.
