Abstract

This special issue of Developmental Review is in honor of Judith Rich Harris and the important contributions she made to the study of child development. Though she lacked traditional credentials and a university position, her work forced professional scholars to reconsider a foundational tenet in psychology. Contrary to both evidence and intuition, Harris argued that parents had no lasting influence on the personalities, preferences, and temperaments of their children. Her ideas were met with incredulity, and it would take time before reflexive doubt gave way to more careful consideration. In the decades following the publication of her most well-known book, The Nurture Assumption, her influence has spread well beyond the boundaries of her own field, developmental psychology. Contributors to this volume include criminologists, social psychologists, and behavior geneticists alike. The special issue represents an exciting opportunity to reflect on a remarkable psychologist and the legacy that endures from her unlikely scholarly career.

朱迪斯-里奇-哈里斯与儿童发展:《养育假定》25 年之后
本期《发展评论》特刊旨在纪念朱迪斯-里奇-哈里斯(Judith Rich Harris)以及她对儿童发展研究做出的重要贡献。虽然她没有传统的资历和大学职位,但她的工作却迫使专业学者重新考虑心理学的一个基本原则。与证据和直觉相反,哈里斯认为父母对子女的个性、喜好和脾气没有持久的影响。她的观点遭到了很多人的质疑,经过一段时间后,人们才从条件反射式的怀疑转变为更加慎重的思考。在她最著名的著作《养育假设》出版后的几十年里,她的影响已经远远超出了她自己的领域--发展心理学。本卷的撰稿人包括犯罪学家、社会心理学家和行为遗传学家。这本特刊为我们提供了一个令人兴奋的机会,让我们对这位杰出的心理学家以及她不平凡的学术生涯所留下的遗产进行反思。
