Abstract

Life span developmental psychology is the study of individual development from conception until death. The hallmark of this approach is the coconstruction of biology, society, and the individual to produce development. Individuals actively regulate their development according to opportunities and constraints in their social ecology. Life span development theories address the impressive ability of individuals to optimize their development across the life span through the use of three central processes of developmental regulation: goal engagement, goal disengagement, and metaregulation.
