MICHAEL L. COMMONS is Lecturer and Research Associate at in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard University. He has coedited Quantitative Analyses of Behavior, volumes 1-8, and Beyond Formal Operations: Late Adolescent and Adult Cognitive Development.
In recent years, a number of researchers have begun to question the Piagetian theory that cognitive structural development ends with the adolescent's acquisition of formal operations and have begun to focus on the development of thought in late adolescence and adulthood. This volume brings together the work of numerous scholars in cognitive social, and perceptual development to explore the nature of postformal thought. The contributors represent the diversity of models and approaches that characterize the ongoing research in this area and, at the same time, act to unify this body of literature within a common framework of analysis. Students, researchers, and practicing psychologists will find her important new insights into the evolution of thought processes throughout the human lifespan.
