Human development occurs because we gain new skills, we perfect ones that have served some purpose but then become more useful, and we lose other abilities that either become redundant or superseded.  The study of how individual capabilities change and relate to other similarly developing skills is central to the discipline of developmental psychology. In this strand we are exploring a range of statistical approaches to the measurement of change that captures these processes and relationships.
