在经历了几十年的理论支离破碎和孤立之后,一个基于一般科学原理的趋同的解释框架是发展心理学的一个重要目标。动态系统方法可以提供这样一个框架,使用自组织原理来解释新形式是如何在没有预先确定的情况下出现并随着发展而变得越来越复杂的。传统理论家族的新趋势强调系统的、涌现的过程,现在可以用适用于所有自然系统的自组织原则来解释这些过程。因此,自我组织为发展的多个方面提供了单一的解释,将不同的发展观点整合到一个更大的科学视角中。
After decades of theoretical fragmentation and insularity a converging explanatory framework based on general scientific principles is an important goal for developmental psychology. Dynamic systems approaches may provide such a framework, using principles of self-organization to explain how novel forms emerge without predetermination and become increasingly complex with development. New trends in traditional theoretical families emphasize systemic, emergent processes, and these can now be explicated with principles of self-organization that apply to all natural systems. Self-organization thus provides a single explanation for the multiple facets of development, integrating diverse developmental viewpoints within a larger scientific perspective.
