Doctor of Philosophy in Developmental Psychology

The Developmental Psychology program specializes in research on the development of social and interpersonal processes as they exist in real-world contexts from the prenatal period and infancy through late adulthood. Our faculty seek to understand developmental changes in individuals' cognition, emotion, and biobehavioral systems within real life situations like parenting, families, schools, and relationships. Within these contexts, faculty examine diverse issues, including how mental representations influence problem solving, conflict resolution, and moral reasoning, how narratives in conversation serve to regulate development, how people cope with chronic health problems within their social worlds, how sexuality and sexual identity develop, and how childhood experiences get ?under the skin? to effect durable changes in the epigenome and other biological systems involved in physical and psychological development.
