Abstract

This paper deals with four major issues in developmental psychology: the preservation of structures over time, the mechanisms of change in development, the psychological growth functions for emergent competences, and the determinants of individual variation in psychological development. We emphasize the role of the maturation of the central nervous system on the emergence of cognitive competences during early development and question the traditional doctrine on the preservation of the products of early experience.
