La conscience
Un ouvrage qui s'intéresse à la conscience pour elle-même et qui en aborde spécifiquement la problématique à la fois sous un angle psychologique et éducatif. Il fournit des analyses approfondies de la définition et de la mesure de la conscience, des revues actuelles et critiques de la littérature éducative et psychologique sur la conscience, et des pistes de réflexions théoriques originales et d'interventions innovantes pour la psychologie et l'éducation. Il est le résultat de la collaboration entre une dizaine de chercheurs en psychologie et en sciences de l'éducation d'Europe (Belgique, Danemark, Espagne, France et Suisse) et d'Amérique du Nord (Canada et États-Unis d'Amérique). Il s'adresse aussi bien à des praticiens (enseignants, psychologues, etc.) qu'à des étudiants et universitaires en éducation et psychologie.
Psychologie des apprentissages scolaires
"Cet ouvrage propose une approche à la fois didactique et multidimensionnelle des apprentissages scolaires. Il dresse une synthèse des connaissances scientifiques les plus actuelles en ce qui concerne les principaux apprentissages scolaires : lecture (déchiffrage et compréhension), orthographe, production textuelle, calcul, résolution de problèmes, symbolisation arithmétique et algébrique. De façon complémentaire, sont également abordées les problématiques du transfert, de la motivation scolaire, de la régulation des émotions face aux tâches d'apprentissage ainsi que des façons d'affronter les difficultés rencontrées par certains élèves pour réussir ces apprentissages."

Mental State Understanding: Individual Differences in Typical and Atypical Development
The current book addresses the development of mental state understanding in children with typical and atypical population, and reports new suggestions about the way to evaluate it and to support it through training. The presented frame is multifaceted. In respect to typical populations, the role of maternal reflective functioning, language, communication, and educational contexts has been deepened; and the association with internalizing/externalizing behaviors, performances in spatial tasks and pragmatics has been addressed as well. As to atypical populations, deficits in mental states understanding are reported for children with different developmental disorders or impairments, as the agenesis of the corpus callosum, Down Syndrome, preterm birth, Autism Spectrum Disorder, hearing impairment and personality difficulties such as anxiety. Overall, the papers collected in our book allow a better understanding of the mechanisms influencing mental state understanding and the effects of mental state comprehension on development.
Imaginary Companions and the Children Who Create Them
Many parents delight in their child's imaginary companion as evidence of a lively imagination and creative mind. At the same time, parents sometimes wonder if the imaginary companion might be a sign that something is wrong. Does having a pretend friend mean that the child is in emotional distress? That he or she has difficulty communicating with other children? In this fascinating book, Marjorie Taylor provides an informed look at current thinking about pretend friends, dispelling many myths about them. In the past a child with an imaginary companion might have been considered peculiar, shy, or even troubled, but according to Taylor the reality is much more positive--and interesting. Not onl...
Desarrollo temprano // Colección: Didáctica y Desarrollo
La psicología del desarrollo, especialmente la relativa al desarrollo más temprano —desde el nacimiento hasta el fi nal de la etapa de Educación Infantil—, es hoy una de las áreas más interesantes en el panorama científico. Conocer cómo se produce el desarrollo incluso desde la etapa prenatal, saber identificar qué fenómenos son los más relevantes en las distintas áreas y cuáles son las principales explicaciones teóricas propuestas constituye una herramienta imprescindible para enriquecer el desarrollo infantil desde la intervención educativa.

Emotional Development in Young Children
The ability to express, understand, and regulate emotions is a crucial element in individual functioning and interpersonal interaction. This important volume presents a fresh look at early child development by exploring the very beginnings of emotional competence in young children. What do toddlers and preschoolers understand about their own and other people's feelings? What are the connections between emotions, socialization, and healthy relationships? How do changes in other areas of development, like cognition, fuel emotional competencies? What problems ensue when emotional development is delayed, and how can they be ameliorated? Including numerous case studies, original findings, and an extensive review of the literature, the book sheds light on the emotional experience of the very young and points toward exciting directions for future research.
Handbook of Solid Phase Microextraction
The relatively new technique of solid phase microextraction (SPME) is an important tool to prepare samples both in the lab and on-site. SPME is a "green" technology because it eliminates organic solvents from analytical laboratory and can be used in environmental, food and fragrance, and forensic and drug analysis. This handbook offers a thorough background of the theory and practical implementation of SPME. SPME protocols are presented outlining each stage of the method and providing useful tips and potential pitfalls. In addition, devices and fiber coatings, automated SPME systems, SPME method development, and In Vivo applications are discussed. This handbook is essential for its discussion of the latest SPME developments as well as its in depth information on the history, theory, and practical application of the method. - Practical application of Solid Phase Microextraction methods including detailed steps - Provides history of extraction methods to better understand the process - Suitable for all levels, from beginning student to experienced practitioner
Neuroconstructivism: Perspectives and prospects
What are the processes, from conception to adulthood, that enable a single cell to grow into a sentient adult? The processes that occur along the way are so complex that any attempt to understand development necessitates a multi-disciplinary approach, integrating data from cognitive studies, computational work, and neuroimaging - an approach till now seldom taken in the study of child development. Neuroconstructivism is a major new 2 volume publication that seeks to redress this balance, presenting an integrative new framework for considering development. Computer and robotic models provide concrete tools for investigating the processes and mechanisms involved in learning and development. Vo...
Socioemotional Development in Cultural Context
Filling a significant gap in the literature, this book examines the impact of culture on the social behaviors, emotions, and relationships of children around the world. It also explores cultural differences in what is seen as adaptive or maladaptive development. Eminent scholars discuss major theoretical perspectives on culture and development and present cutting-edge research findings. The volume addresses key aspects of socioemotional functioning, including emotional expressivity, parent–child and peer relationships, autonomy, self-regulation, intergroup attitudes, and aggression. Implications for culturally informed intervention and prevention are highlighted.
Envy
For centuries, scholars have argued that envy is the source of much aggressive behavior as well as the root cause of much unhappiness, but it is only recently that there have been attempts to examine the emotion from an empirical perspective. This book is the first of its kind to offer a comprehensive summary of current theoretical and empirical work on envy provided by scholars from a range of disciplines. The first section of the book focuses on the rich theological, philosophical, and evolutionary foundations of scholarly thinking on envy. The second section covers the social psychological work on envy and includes chapters on social comparison processes, definitional challenges, the link...
