AB  - The  concept  of  development  is  the  backbone  of  modern  behavioral  science.  Psychiatric  practitioners  and  behavioral  scientists  are  concerned  primarily  with  change,  its  origins,  and  its  control.  Developmental  psychology  is  the  scientific  study  of  the  structure,  function,  and  processes  of  systematic  growth  and  change  across  the  life  span.  Systems  of  classification  of  behavior  (including  psychiatric  nosology)  take  into  account  not  only  contemporaneous  features  and  formal  similarities  among  current  symptoms  and  syndromes  but  also  past  qualities,  immediate  consequences,  long-term  outcome,  and  likelihood  of  change  (naturally  or  through  treatment).
