Developmental Psychology Jobs

Developmental psychologists study the cognitive, social and physiological development that occurs throughout a lifetime.  Developmental psychology focuses on the interaction between psychological processes and physical development.

Developmental psychologists can specialize in behavior during infancy, childhood, adolescence or in the older adult.  Some developmental psychologists study specific developmental disabilities, their effects and treatment.  As a result of an aging population, there is more research studying ways to help elderly people remain as independent as possible.
