摘要：The purpose of this study was to examine the developmental psychology sections of the most commonly used educational psychology textbooks with respect to; their use of politically correct language, epistemological styles, breath/depth of content, scope and utilization of up to date information. Content analysis was used to examine the textbooks. Results showed that the existing textbooks significantly lacked concern about non-discriminative/politically correct language; they were places in dualism; content typically introduced basic concepts and classic developmental theories. Findings, limitations of the study and implications for future studies and teachers education were discussed.
