Description - Assessment and Intervention Issues Across the Life Span by Stephanie M.C. Dollinger
This volume evolved from the second life span development conference held at Southern Illinois University entitled "Assessment and Intervention Across the Lifespan". Providing an overview and consideration of directions for research in areas of assessment and interventions across the lifespan, the presentations covered a variety of topic areas including social ecology, cultural diversity, attitudes about aging, as well as attention, visual and linguistic skills. This volume consists of chapters based on the conference presentations as well as additional chapters by experts in related specialty areas discussing attachment theory, learning disabilities, and phonological processing. This second conference was a continuation of the first conference and its corresponding volume entitled, "Assessment of Biological Mechanisms Across the Life Span". The second conference further considered critical developmental issues related to the area of assessment and intervention relevant for the study of life span development.
The chapters cover important interactions between assessment and intervention for each major developmental period; several emphasize the importance of early assessment and intervention. A common theme found throughout is the critical connection between basic research and practice. The editors hope this book will prove useful not only to researchers, but also to practitioners in related disciplines working with individuals of all ages.
