Infant and Child Development (ICD)

Infant and Child Development is a peer-reviewed academic journal devoted to research on human psychological development from the prenatal period through infancy, childhood, adolescence, and emerging adulthood. The journal prioritizes high-quality empirical, theoretical, and methodological papers that advance understanding of developmental processes across cognitive, social, emotional, perceptual, motor, and language domains. It also welcomes research addressing atypical development, such as conduct problems, anxiety and mood disorders, language impairments, autism spectrum disorders, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorders. Articles published in Infant and Child Development span diverse populations and employ a variety of research designs — including longitudinal, experimental, and observational studies — to inform both scientific theory and practical applications in educational, clinical, and community settings. With six issues per year, the journal provides a platform for innovative contributions that integrate interdisciplinary perspectives within developmental science. As part of Wiley’s scholarly portfolio, it supports transparent, open research practices and strives to be accessible to a global research community. The editorial leadership under Sara Hart emphasizes fairness in review and author support, reflecting the journal’s commitment to advancing developmental science.
