Description
The papers presented in this volume, written by active and well- known researchers, discuss experimental research that has validated the importance of infancy in individual development over the age continuum.
In addition, a diverse overview section contains informative chapters on conceptual models for individual differences during infancy including:
individual differences from the perspective of dynamical systems theory
the logic of behavioral genetic designs and their use in the delineation of genetic contributions to individual differences
coverage of basic statistical treatments for individual difference data focussing on cluster analytic techniques
Reviews

-Merrill-Palmer Quarterly
"...will serve many readers as a source of updated, professional information for students of individual differences....and most generally, as a provocation for admirers of linear mathematics to reconsider whether they use the right sort of mathematics."
