From Individual Differences to Dynamic Pathways of Development.
Fischer, Kurt W.; Pare-Blagoev, Juliana
Child Development, v71 n4 p850-53 Jul-Aug 2000

Issues discussed include the characteristics of developmental transitions, such as hysteresis; nature of growth processes, such as hierarchical development or predator-prey interactions; and the construction of effective scales for measuring change in logical reasoning.
