This book reviews the current state of knowledge in the field of

child and adolescent psychology. It distinguishes between what is new in

child psychology, given that certain phenomena did not previously exist

in a significant way in the lives of young people (such as

homoparentality, attacks, cyber-bullying or Covid-19). It also examines

new studies of subjects that already exist and have done so for a long

time (intelligence, the mother-child relationship, etc.), but where

significant theoretical developments have taken place in the

contemporary period.

Child Psychology explores the

influences of culture and parenthood, parent-child attachment, cognitive

development, the differences between boys and girls, gender and its

stereotypes, health, illness and mortality, antisociality, activities

and leisure
