Abstract

This course covers classic and contemporary approaches in studying development across the lifespan. We will address critical consideration for conducting research with individuals across the lifespan focusing on children and adolescents. We will discuss theoretical frameworks, brain development, and consider evidence from behavioral methods, neuroimaging technologies and molecular biology. Neuroimaging methods will include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional MRI, electroencephalography (EEG), and eye-tracking. Key discussion topic will include commonalities and differences in brain anatomy and function between children, adolescents, and adults.
