This book is about how a relationship transforms itself from one pattern of communication to another. The authors present a unique research method called 'relational-historical research', based on advances in dynamic systems theory in developmental psychology, and qualitative methods in life history research. It rests on three premises: that the developing relationship (not the individual) is the unit of analysis; that change emerges from, but is not entirely constrained by, the patterns of the past; and that the developmental process is best revealed by making frequent observations within a particular case before, during, and after a key developmental transition. Looking specifically at the mother–infant relationship, this is a compelling piece of research that will appeal to an international audience of intellectuals and practitioners.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"I H Pentz Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46709604286626,"sku":null,"price":260.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0364\/4047\/3732\/files\/51TTdrTJxnL._SL1000.jpg?v=1774621554","url":"https:\/\/pentzbooks.co.za\/products\/change-processes-in-relationships-a-relational-historical-research-approach-by-alan-fogel-author-andrea-garvey-author-hui-chin-hsu-author-delisa-west-stroming-author","provider":"I H Pentz Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
