Developmental issues can be examined from the perspective of the promotion of healthy development, or you may select a particular developmental issue in the form of an impairment or diagnosis. A. Describe the developmental issue you are examining for the purpose of this program evaluation, including if the issue is considered typical development or atypical development in nature. i. What distinguishes this issue in terms of criteria, if applicable? For example, are you promoting healthy cognitive development, addressing developmental delays, or addresses an actual diagnostic mental health disorder? What are the criteria or key identifiers for the selected issue? ii. What is the primary area or areas of impact across physical, cognitive, affective, and social domains? B. Describe the population who is affected by the selected developmental issue, at risk for the selected developmental issue, or who would best be served by a program that promotes healthy development. In other words, is there a primary age range for successfully promoting health for the selected developmental issue? Does this issue affect a particular socioeconomic group? Is the issue gender-specific? Are there cultural considerations or groups that are primarily impacted by the issue? C. Determine the sociocultural impact that the selected developmental issue has on the field of psychology in general, as well as on communities and organizations in which developmental psychology is practiced. i. How common is the developmental issue? ii. What organizations, societies, or groups exist that promote awareness of the developmental issue?
