Self Processes and Development: The Minnesota Symposia on Child Psychology, Volume 23 (Minnesota Symposia on Child Psychology Series) [Hardcover] Gunnar, Megan R. and Sroufe, L. Alan

Product Description The study of the self--and the processes associated with the self--are at the cutting edge of research on social and personality development. This volume brings together researchers from diverse theoretical perspectives to address a wide variety of issues associated with self processes including competence, autonomy, relatedness, and attachment. As such, the book provides a unique perspective on the role of self processes in child development and the importance of emotion as an organizing aspect of the self. Review "The current volume maintains the high quality that developmentalists have come to expect from this series. The scope of this symposium on the self is wide-ranging in both theory and content." ―Contemporary Psychology
