Description
DLS
supports fundamental research that increases our understanding of cognitive, linguistic,
social, cultural, and biological processes related to children's and
adolescents' development and learning. Research supported by this program will
add to our basic knowledge of how people learn and the underlying developmental
processes that support learning, social functioning, and productive lives as
members of society. DLS supports research that addresses developmental
processes within the domains of cognitive, social, emotional, and motor
development using any appropriate populations for the topics of interest
including infants, children, adolescents, adults, and non-human animals. The
program also supports research investigating factors that impact development
change including family, peers, school, community, culture, media, physical, genetic,
and epigenetic influences. Additional priorities include research that:
incorporates multidisciplinary, multi-method, microgenetic,
and longitudinal approaches; develops new methods, models, and theories for
studying learning and development; includes participants from a range of
ethnicities, socioeconomic backgrounds, and cultures; and integrates different
processes (e.g., learning, memory, emotion), levels of analysis (e.g.,
behavioral, social, neural), and time scales (e.g. infancy, middle childhood,
adolescence).
