This review focuses on the impact of parental behavior on child development, as interpreted from an evolutionary-developmental perspective. We employ psychosocial acceleration theory to reinterpret the effects of variation in parental investment and involvement on child development, arguing that these effects have been structured by natural selection to match the developing child to current and expected future environments. Over time, an individual's development, physiology, and behavior are organized in a coordinated manner (as instantiated in 'life history strategies') that facilitates survival and reproductive success under different conditions. We review evidence to suggest that parental behavior (1) is strategic and contingent on environmental opportunities and constraints and (2) influences child life history strategies across behavioral, cognitive, and physiological domains.
本综述聚焦于从进化发展视角解读的父母行为对儿童发展的影响。我们运用心理社会加速理论重新诠释父母投资与参与度的差异对儿童发展的影响，认为这些影响是由自然选择构建的，以使发育中的儿童适应当前及预期的未来环境。随着时间推移，个体的发展、生理和行为以一种协调的方式组织起来（如在“生命史策略”中体现），以促进在不同条件下的生存和繁殖成功。我们审视证据以表明父母行为（1）具有策略性且取决于环境机会和限制因素，以及（2）在行为、认知和生理领域影响儿童的生命史策略。
