Reconstructing the Mind: Replicability in Research on Human Development

by Marinus van Ijzendoom, Jaan Valsiner

Psychologists, anthropologists, educationalists, and methodologists from Europe and North America discuss their experience with studying the replicability of research on human development. They illustrate how the developmental perspective, by emphasizing change rather than stability, casts doubt on the traditional value of repeating exactly the process and outcome of previous experiments.
