Abstract: The database FCCDEP79-88 (File of China's Child Developmental andEducational Psychology 1979--1988)was built to analyse the advances in thisfield from 1979 to 1988 in China. The main findings are as follows: Therewas a significant progress in statistical uses. The number of subjects usedduring the ten years reached a considerable figure of 362665 and the focusof the studies was on children aged from 4 to 16 years. There were alsoadvances in research methods. The methods mainly used were experim-ent, psychological measurement and assessment and theoretical analysis. Arapid increase was found in studies using scales. In terms of the researchproblems, there was a decrease in high level studies of deep exploration,especially in 1988, while thele was an increase in replication studies. Or-iginal and creative studies showed an increase in number, which needsfurther analysis. The average number of citation was much smaller thanthe country's average and the world average. Books were more often ci-ted than journals, which is different from some citation analysis whichshowed that journals were most often cited in scientific literature bothat home and abroad. Most of the cited were in chinese and English,among which only a small number was published in the past 5 years.
