developmental direction  

Définition(s)

  • The principle of developmental direction, one of Gesell's five principles of maturation, assumes that development is not random but proceeds in an ordered and orderly fashion. The fact that development systematically proceeds from the head to the toes is a good example of how at any point a developmental trend will be more advanced in the head area than in the foot area.
