  • Applied developmental scientists may contribute to the enhancement of human development in several ways. For instance, applied developmental scientists may conduct research on socially significant issues pertinent to human development; ascertain the developmental correlates of important social phenomena; devise developmentally and contextually sensitive indices of important facets of human development; integrate cutting-edge applied developmental science theory and research with principles for or the enactment of “best practice” programs; or disseminate information about the use of applied developmental knowledge to diverse community stakeholders and, in turn, learn from these communities in order to further the agenda for knowledge development.
