Intellectual Development

Books on intellectual development typically separate development into distinct developmental periods: the formation of intelligence and basic cognitive skills that occurs until adolescence, and the maintenance, decline, or improvement of these intellectual skills across the adult life span. Robert Sternberg and Cynthia Berg have integrated research on these two development periods, by bringing together six authors that provide a comprehensive overview to the major approaches to intellectual development through childhood or adulthood: psychometric, Piagetian, new-Piagetian, information- processing, learning, and the contextual perspectives.Sternberg, Robert J. is the author of 'Intellectual Development' with ISBN 9780521394567 and ISBN 0521394562.
