Arnold Gesell’s Films of Infant and Child Development

This volume contains a portion of digitized reels of raw footage stored at the Drs. Nicholas and Dorothy Cummings Center for the History of Psychology documenting Arnold Gesell’s research, dating from the 1910s through the 1940s. The collection includes films of infants and children performing tasks that had not previously been captured in moving images. Many of the filmed tasks represent Gesell’s “stages" of development, such as infants learning to roll over, using a spoon, stacking blocks, or manipulating rings and pellets. We are continuing to add clips to this volume on a continuous basis. Sharing of this material with anyone other than the authorized researcher and his or her immediate collaborators requires permission from The Cummings Center for the History of Psychology. Requests for sharing will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Please contact [e-mail] for the Access Policy and Permission to Use Moving Images.

本数据集收录了存储于尼古拉斯与多萝西·卡明斯心理学史中心（Drs. Nicholas and Dorothy Cummings Center for the History of Psychology）的数字化原始胶片片段的一部分，素材记录了阿诺德·格塞尔（Arnold Gesell）于1910年代至1940年代开展的研究工作。本馆藏包含此前未通过动态影像记录的婴幼儿完成各类任务的影片素材，其中多数拍摄任务对应格塞尔提出的发展"阶段"，涵盖婴幼儿学习翻身、使用汤匙、堆叠积木，以及操控圆环与小丸等内容。本数据集仍在持续更新，将不断增补新的片段素材。未经授权，不得将本素材分享给授权研究者及其直接协作人员以外的任何主体，如需分享需获得心理学史卡明斯中心的许可。分享申请将按照个案逐一进行评估。如需获取访问政策与影像素材使用许可，请联系邮箱[e-mail]。
