Cambridge University Press Childrens Imagination
Book SynopsisChildren''s imagination was traditionally seen as a wayward, desire-driven faculty that is eventually constrained by rationality. A more recent, Romantic view claims that young children''s fertile imagination is increasingly dulled by schooling. Contrary to both perspectives, this Element argues that, paradoxically, children''s imagination draws much inspiration from reality. Hence, when they engage in pretend play, envision the future, or conjure up counterfactual possibilities, children rarely generate fantastical possibilities. Their reality-guided imagination enables children to plan ahead and to engage in informative thought experiments. Nevertheless, when adults present children with less reality-based possibilities via biblical narratives or the endorsement of special beings children are receptive. Indeed, such imaginary possibilities can infuse their otherwise commonsensical appraisal of reality. Finally, like adults, young children enjoy being absorbed into a make-believe, fTable of Contents1. The nature of the imagination; 2. Pretend play; 3. Role play; 4. Thinking about possibilities; 5.

Cambridge University Press Autobiographical Memory and Narrative in Childhood
Book SynopsisThis Element delineates how the narrative expression of autobiographical memory develops through everyday interactions that frame the forms and functions of autobiographical remembering. Narratives are both outward and inward facing, providing the interface between how we perceive the world and how we perceive ourselves. Thus narratives are the pivot point where self and culture meet. To make this argument, the author brings together literature from multiple perspectives, including cognitive, personality, evolutionary, cultural, and developmental psychology. To fully understand autobiographical memory, it must be understood how it functions in the context of lives lived in complex sociocultural contexts.Table of Contents1. Introduction; 2. Conceptualizing memory; 3. Narratives as culture; 4. The sociocultrual developmental theory of autobiographical memory; 5. Adolescence, the life story and the intergenerational self; 6. Conclusions and future directions; References.

Cambridge University Press Childrens Eyewitness Testimony and Event Memory
Book SynopsisThis Element addresses the factors that influence children''s accuracy in reporting on events and draws implications for children''s ability to serve as reliable eyewitnesses. The following topics are covered: short- and long-term memory for event details; memory for stressful events; memory for the temporal order of events; memory for the spatial location of events; the ways poorly worded questions or intervening events interfere with memory; and individual differences in language development, understanding right from wrong and emotions, and cognitive processes. In addition, this Element considers how potential jurors perceive children as eyewitnesses and how the findings of the research on children''s event memory inform best practices for interviewing children.Table of Contents1. Introduction; 2. Many factors and one comprehensive study; 3. Stressful events; 4. Memory for when and where; 5. Reporting on events under non-ideal conditions; 6. Individual differences; 7. Adults' perceptions of child eyewitnesses; 8. Applications; 9. Conclusion; References.

Cambridge University Press Responsibility for Health
Book SynopsisThis Element offers a broad perspective on responsibility for health. This includes responsibilities in the prevention of disease and accidents, and in the creation of healthcare for all. The professional responsibilities of physicians and nurses are explored, and so are the responsibilities that we all have for our own health. Many of the central problems in healthcare ethics are discussed from a responsibility perspective, for instance paternalism, informed consent, evidence-based medicine, alternative medicine, and the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare. In order to perform this analysis, conceptual tools for responsibility analysis are provided, such as the distinction between blame responsibility and task responsibility and various notions of causality that are relevant for our understanding of responsibility.Table of Contents1. Introduction; 2. What is Responsibility?; 3. What Determines Our Health?; 4. The Ethics of Public Health; 5. Health Care for All; 6. Responsibility in Health Care; 7. Responsibility for One's Own Health; 8. Conclusion; Notes; References.

Cambridge University Press The Cultural Mind
Book SynopsisFocusing on 'the science of the cultural mind', this book provides a systematic review of the sociocultural theory of learning, its contemporary elaborations, and its practical implementation in education. It includes numerous examples of intervention practices that are ideal for students, researchers, and practitioners.Trade Review'A landmark work that, for the first time, comprehensively presents the sociocultural approach to learning and synthesizes compelling evidence for it as key to optimizing education and human development in contemporary times. Alex Kozulin persuasively argues for a transformation in current educational practice as an urgent priority, from transmission of static knowledge and skills to 'learning how to learn'. Beyond that, this text is unique in clarifying the theoretical ideas and evidence-based teaching and assessment strategies essential for attaining this goal. Masterfully crafted, rich in research findings and practical examples, this book is an essential read for researchers and educators alike. A wonderful volume by a leading sociocultural theorist, investigator, and talented author that promises to have a major impact for years to come.' Laura E. Berk, Distinguished Professor of Psychology Emerita, Illinois State University'The originality of Alex Kozulin's new book relates to the fact that the sociocultural theory is presented as a set of interconnected key concepts. Each concept, in turn, is discussed in its development from the original idea to its further elaboration and practical implementation.' Yuriy Karpov, Professor of Psychology and Education, Touro University'Written by a renowned authority on Vygotsky's account of consciousness and its development, this latest work offers both an accessible synthesis of the theory's central principles and an illustration of their relevance to education, with examples from diverse populations and across academic disciplines. A must-read!' Matthew E. Poehner, Professor of Education and Applied Linguistics, Pennsylvania State University'Alex Kozulin is one of the pioneers of Vygotsky Studies as a translator and the author of the first whole-book intellectual biography of Lev Vygotsky. In his new book, Kozulin presents a creative 'reconstruction' of classical Vygotskian legacy, enhanced and rethought in the tradition of Reuven Feuerstein, and produces an exciting new synthesis in educational theory and practice for the 21st century.' Anton Yasnitsky, author of Vygotsky: An Intellectual BiographyTable of ContentsIntroduction: the science of the cultural mind; 1. Mediation; 2. Symbolic tools and mental functions; 3. Leading activity and child development; 4. Learning potential; 5. Cognitive education and concept formation; Conclusion: Connecting the dots.
