This special issue, comprised of five articles, examines the factors that contribute to writing proficiency and its development. The first discusses the proposition that the development of writing competence depends on high levels of self-regulation as well as a mastery of low level transcription skills. The second presents a developmental model which describes how multiple sources of knowledge, stored in long term memory, are coordinated during writing within the constraints of working memory. The third constructs a preliminary developmental model or writing and reading relationships which details the cognitive features that are critical to obtaining proficiency in both of these areas. In the fourth article, the conditions that contribute to the development of writing motivation are considered. The last paper examines how social/contextual variables influence writing and its development. Together, the articles provide substance and structure to some of the more important aspects of writing development.

Conceived as the successor to Gregg and Steinberg's Cognitive Processes in Writing, this book takes a multidisciplinary approach to writing research. The authors describe their current thinking and data in such a way that readers in psychology, English, education, and linguistics will find it readable and stimulating. It should serve as a resource book of theory, tools and techniques, and applications that should stimulate and guide the field for the next decade. The chapters showcase approaches taken by active researchers in eight countries. Some of these researchers have published widely in their native language but little of their work has appeared in English-language publications.
