Processes of Change in Brain and Cognitive Development by Yuko Munakata & Mark Johnson
Part of the "Attention and Performance" series, this volume provides a systematic investigation of how imaging techniques can help you understand the processes of change in mental development. It brings together world class scientists to address brain and cognitive development at different levels, including phylogeny, genetics, and brain imaging.In recent years there has been a shift within developmental psychology away from examining the cognitive systems at different ages, to trying to understand exactly what are the mechanisms that generate change. What kind of learning mechanisms and representational changes drive cognitive development? How can the imaging techniques available help us to understand these mechanisms? This new volume in the highly cited and critically acclaimed "Attention and Performance" series is the first to provide a systematic investigation into the processes of change in mental development. It brings together world class scientists to address brain and cognitive development at several different levels, including phylogeny, genetics, neurophysiology, brain imaging, behavior, and computational modeling, across both typically and atypically developing populations. Presenting original new research from the frontiers of cognitive neuroscience, this book will have a substantial impact in this field, as well as on developmental psychology and developmental neuroscience. |
