There are exciting times for the field of human development. Researchers are Increasingly moving toward a contextual perspective that is consistent with the complexity of development. While not losing sight of individual variation, developmentalists are expanding their horizons to encompass the environmental context in which behavior occurs. Simultaneously, they are placing greater reliance on time extended research designs and enlarging the breadth of their research objectives. More and more developmentalists are reaching out to disciplines other than developmental psychology and embracing a multidisciplinary approach that draws on concepts and contributions from sociology, social psychology, anthropology, women's studies, biology, medicine, and social history.
