Social and emotional development in infancy and early childhood

Research is increasingly showing the effects of family, school, and culture on the social, emotional and personality development of children.  Much ofthis research concentrates on grade school and above, but the most profound effects may occur much earlier, in the 0-3 age range. This volume consistsof focused articles from the authoritative Encyclopedia of Infant and Early Childhood Development that specifically address this topic and collates research in this area in a way that isn't readily available in the existent literature, covering such areas as adoption, attachment, birth order, effects of day care, discipline and compliance, divorce, emotion regulation, family influences, preschool, routines, separation anxiety, shyness, socialization, effectsof television, etc. This one volume reference provides an essential, affordable reference for researchers, graduate students and clinicians interested in social psychology and personality, as well as those involved with cultural psychology and developmental psychology.
