英文简介：The focus of this multidisciplinary journal is the synthesis of research and application to promote positive development across the life span and across the globe. The journal publishes research that generates knowledge about human development that informs public dialogue, social policy, and preventive and development optimizing interventions. The applied developmental science orientation is defined by three conjoint emphases. The applied aspect reflects its direct implication for what individuals, families, practitioners, and policymakers do. The developmental aspect emphasizes a focus on systematic and successive changes within individual and social systems that occur across the life span. The science aspect underscores the need to use a range of research methods to collect reliable and objective information in a systematic manner to test the validity of theory and application. The convergence of these three aspects leads to a fostering of a reciprocal relationship between theory and application as a cornerstone of applied developmental science, one wherein empirically based, developmental theory not only guides intervention strategies and social policy, but is influenced by the outcome of these activities. Furthermore, the convergence calls for a multidisciplinary perspective aimed at integrating information from biological, medical, social, and behavioral science disciplines. Given this multidisciplinary orientation, the journal publishes research employing any of a diverse array of rigorous qualitative as well as quantitative methodologies, when they have important implications for the application of developmental science across the human life span. Manuscripts pertinent to the diversity of development throughout the life span, cross-national and cross-cultural studies, studies pertinent to social justice, and research about the methods and measures involved in applying developmental science are particularly welcome. The journal does not publish pilot studies. Authors should include analytic techniques that indicate the effect size of findings and information about nature of the sample studied.中文简介：（来自Google、百度翻译）该多学科期刊的重点是综合研究和应用，以促进积极的发展跨越生命跨度和全球。该杂志发表的研究成果产生了有关人类发展的知识，为公共对话、社会政策、预防和优化发展干预提供了信息。应用发展科学的定位是由三个共同的重点确定的。应用方面反映了它对个人、家庭、从业者和决策者所做事情的直接含义。发展方面强调关注在整个生命周期内发生的个人和社会系统内的系统和连续的变化。科学方面强调需要使用一系列研究方法，以系统的方式收集可靠和客观的信息，以检验理论和应用的有效性。 这三个方面的融合，形成了理论与应用的相互关系，作为应用发展科学的基石，发展理论以经验为基础，不仅指导干预策略和社会政策，而且受到这些活动结果的影响。此外，这种融合需要一个多学科的视角，旨在整合来自生物、医学、社会和行为科学学科的信息。 鉴于这一多学科方向，该杂志发表的研究采用了各种严格的定性和定量方法，当它们对发展科学在人类生命中的应用具有重要意义时，任何一种方法都可以使用。特别欢迎与整个生命周期内发展的多样性有关的手稿、跨国和跨文化研究、与社会正义有关的研究以及关于应用发展科学所涉及的方法和措施的研究。该杂志没有发表试点研究。作者应该包括分析技术，以表明结果的影响大小和有关研究样本性质的信息。
