Developmental psychology involves investigating the mechanisms and motivations behind human growth, change, and adaptation throughout their entire lifespan. Although it initially concentrated on infants and children, the field has now broadened to encompass adolescence, adult development, aging, and every stage of life. The fundamental goal of developmental psychologists is to comprehend the shifts in cognition, emotions, and behaviors that take place during various life stages.
