Answer:
The possibilities for building and nourishing connections among the social, cultural, neuroscientific, biological, and cognitive sciences in the service of understanding children and their development are tremendously exciting. Crossing, and integrating across, disciplinary boundaries, especially those disciplines relating to biology/neuroscience, society/culture, cognition, emotion, perception, and motor function has greatly increased over the last decade and hopefully will increase exponentially in the future. All of these aspects of being human are multiply-interrelated and we need to make far more progress in understanding those interrelations.
Developmental science has been influenced more and more by an appreciation of the profound and multilayered interrelations between the ‘intellect’ (our cognitive abilities), ‘heart’ (emotions and motivation), ‘eyes and ears’ (perception), human spirit, physical body, social relations, and culture. A full understanding requires attention to all of these multiply-interrelated facets.
The last decades of the 20th century saw the development and proliferation of initiatives to link cognitive psychology (including cognitive development) with neuroscience. Brain and cognition institutes and multidisciplinary programs sprang up around the world. Hopefully, the 21st century will see the continued expansion of such initiatives so that social, emotional, and cultural influences and outcomes are equal partners in the initiatives.
