See CRICOS-registered alternativesThis unit involves the study of how humans grow and change across the life span from conception until death. Here, you will consolidate and extend on topics introduced in the developmental section of your introductory psychology units. You will explore developmental continuities and changes that are normative and common to most people, but also ways in which people differ from one another. In particular, you will focus on theories that seek to explain development and the extent to which development is influenced by genes, the physical environment, social relationships, and the context in which the individual lives. You will survey major theories, research findings, and contemporary issues in physical, cognitive, social-emotional, and personality development across the life span. The tutorials will complement the lectures and here, you will focus on developmental research methodologies and practical applications of developmental theory.
