In her comentary on our paper, Lois Bloom (1992) claims that the dynamic systems perspective is neither innovative nor explanatory, and that it does not offer any new solutions to the difficult problems of research in the area of emotional development. We believe that Bloom’s commentary raises a number of issues that directly address the potential use and acceptance of a dynamic systems perspective in developmental psychology and our response will focus on those issues.
