Description
The Advances in Child Behavior and Development series has a well-deserved reputation for publishing seminal articles that move established
programs of developmental scholarship forward in creative new directions. Consistent with this reputation, the articles in Volume 33
of the series offer ground-breaking work on topics as diverse as children's problem-solving strategies, intentionality, mathematical
reasoning, and socialization within and beyond school settings. Although the substantive topics differ, what unites the contributions
are their uniformly high level of scholarship, creativity, theoretical sophistication, and attention to developmental processes. The
volume is thus valuable not only to scholars with interests in the specialized topics covered in the articles, but also to anyone interested
in learning about developmental mechanisms, and thus to anyone interested in promoting developmental outcomes in both cognitive and social
domains. Lynn S. Liben, Distinguished Professor of Psychology, Pennsylvania State University, USA
