It also looks at the evolution of research in the field, its current status, and possible future directions. This text is one of the few to examine motor development models and theories analytically while providing a context for advanced students in motor development so they can understand current and classic research in the field. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Traditionally, graduate study in motor development has been approached through a compilation of readings from various sources. This text meets the need for in-depth study in a more cohesive manner by presenting parallels and highlighting relationships among research studies that independent readings might not provide. In addition, \u003ci\u003eAdvanced Analysis of Motor Development\u003c\/i\u003e builds a foundation in the theories and approaches in the field and demonstrates how they drive contemporary research in motor development. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e A valuable text for graduate students beginning their own research projects or making the transition from student to researcher, this text focuses on examining and interpreting research in the field. Respected researchers Haywood, Roberton, and Getchell explain the history and evolution of the field and articulate key research issues. As they examine each of the main models and theories that have influenced the field, they share how motor development research can be applied to the fields of physical education, special education, physical therapy, and rehabilitation sciences. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e With its emphasis on critical inquiry, \u003ci\u003eAdvanced Analysis of Motor Development\u003c\/i\u003e will help students examine important topics and questions in the field in a more sophisticated manner. They will learn to analyze research methods and results as they deepen their understanding of developmental phenomena. For each category of movement skills covered (posture and balance, foot locomotion, ballistic skills, and manipulative skills), the authors first offer a survey of the pertinent research and then present an in-depth discussion of the landmark studies. In analyzing these studies, students will come to appreciate the detail of research and begin to explore possibilities for their own future research. Throughout the text, special elements help students focus on analysis. Tips for Novice Researchers sidebars highlight issues and questions raised by research and offer suggestions for further exploration and study. Comparative tables detail the differences in the purpose, methods, and results of key studies to help students understand not only what the studies found but also the relevance of those findings. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e With \u003ci\u003eAdvanced Analysis of Motor Development\u003c\/i\u003e, readers will discover how research focusing on the major issues and central questions in motor development is produced and begin to conceptualize their own research. Readers will encounter the most important models and theories; dissect some of the seminal and recent articles that test these models and theories; and examine issues such as nature and nurture, discontinuity and continuity, and progression and regression. \u003ci\u003eAdvanced Analysis of Motor Development\u003c\/i\u003e will guide students to a deeper understanding of research in life span motor development and enable them to examine how the complexities of motor development can be addressed in their respective professions. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c!--end tabDescription--\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"tab-tableofcontents\" class=\"tab-content\"\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I.
