Area of Science:

  • Child Development Research
  • Developmental Psychology
  • Applied Developmental Science

Background:

  • Historically, basic and applied research in child development have operated independently.
  • The perceived incompatibility of their objectives has hindered integration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To argue for the simultaneous achievement of basic knowledge advancement and applied problem-solving within integrated research programs.
  • To provide a framework and illustrative examples for merging basic and applied developmental research.

Main Methods:

  • Historical analysis of basic and applied developmental research trends.
  • Proposal of new approaches for research integration.
  • Case studies using research on perception of affordances and unintentional childhood injuries.
