Methods of studying children

 

About this section

The collection of articles, videos, photos and audio exploring child development has been made possible by a partnership between the British Psychological Society and The Open University Child and Youth Studies Group.

We have chosen some examples of classic studies in child psychology to show you some of the ways in which our research is carried out and how our ideas about child development have changed.
