Aimed at researchers and advanced students, this text provides a broad overview of the field of personality development, which is currently enjoying a burst of research activity. Editors Mroczek (Purdue U.) and Little (U. of Kansas) have compiled nearly two-dozen papers that examine personality development across the entire life span from a variety of theoretical perspectives. Topics include (for example) the structure of personality and temperament; developmental and individual difference perspectives on self-esteem; and change in personality processes and health outcomes.
