Synopsis

The emergence of an ability to control and achieve intended outcomes is among the major developmental changes in the first years of life. However, surprisingly little is known about the precise developmental chronology or about the mechanisms important for the development of successful intentional behaviour. This volume contains articles that address the question of how cognitive, motivational and interactive processes contribute to the development and regulation of intentional actions. The resulting integration of theoretical perspectives and empirical findings from different research areas - self-regulation, self-concept, compliance, action control and mastery motivation - provides a way of more fully describing what it is that changes as children gain increasing intentional control, and suggests what mechanisms underlie these changes.
