The Wiley Handbook of Developmental Psychopathology, 1st Edition, surveys the history, conceptual models, and trajectory of developmental psychopathology. Rather than focusing exclusively on discrete clinical disorders, this handbook examines developmental processes and issues that cut across diagnostic boundaries over the lifespan.
The volume explores cognitive, neurobiological, genetic, and environmental factors shaping typical and atypical development. It synthesizes theoretical frameworks, empirical research, and methodological techniques, including mobile technologies used to evaluate child and adolescent mental health.
The text also addresses structural changes in diagnostic classification systems following the transition to the DSM-5. In doing so, it examines how diagnostic shifts and modern developmental concepts inform social policy and legal decision-making.
