   Scientific child study

Explanation:  Scientific children study has first of all started to be applied and is represented as a tool for studying the development of children from birth to maturity. More specifically to study the ways, patterns, regularities and laws by which these developments take place. Since Charles Darwin was dealing with the theory of evolution, his research has encouraged other scientists to deal with children's behaviour. This is because evolution and its principles are closely related to research in the field of genetic behaviour over the life span, that is, development over the life span. In other words, development and behaviour over the life span is conditioned by the genetic material that is inherited, as well as what changes have occurred in the genetic material, the development and adaptation of that material based on the principles of evolution.
