Co‐creating developmental science.

Co‐creating science with members of the researched population improves the science being conducted. Here, we argue that developmental science would particularly benefit from incorporating co‐creation into the scientific process given the unique strength of including the perspectives of young people with lived experiences in scientific research. We propose that developmental scientists approach co‐created research similarly to other open science practices and provide considerations for working with young people and community organizations in co‐created developmental science projects.
