How Developmental Psychologists Make Their Ideas Clearer. Commentary.
Cahan, Emily D.; White, Sheldon H.
Human Development, v40 n2 p87-90 Mar-Apr 1997
The lineage of developmental psychology has involved three waves of research in the 1890s (Hall), 1930s, and 1960s (Piaget). Over these years, a cooperative knowledge-building process arose, fostered by new journals in the 1930s, in which articles built upon one another and sustained or redirected trains of thought among a community of investigators.
