devpsych-tables-figures
Use when building tables and figures for a Developmental Psychology (APA) manuscript. The journal uses APA 7th-edition style and rewards exhibits that make developmental change visible — trajectory plots, age-on-the-x-axis figures, model-implied growth curves — with effect sizes and uncertainty. Designs exhibits; it does not run the analysis.

# Tables & Figures (devpsych-tables-figures)
In Developmental Psychology, the best exhibits **show change**. APA 7th-edition formatting is required,
but the venue-specific move is to make the developmental claim visible: **age or time on the x-axis**,
**individual trajectories plus the model-implied mean curve**, and **uncertainty** that a reader can see.
A bar chart of age-group means that hides within-person change is a missed opportunity here.
## When to trigger
- Designing the main trajectory/results figure or a key table
- Deciding what goes in the article vs. online supplemental material
- A reviewer found an exhibit unclear, non-APA, or "doesn't show the developmental pattern"
- Visualizing growth curves, individual variation, and interactions with age
