Kehityskulmien

Kehityskulmien is a Finnish noun phrase that refers to the different aspects, facets, or trajectories within a development process. The word is formed from kehitys (development) and kulma (angle, corner), with the genitive plural suffix -mien indicating an association with multiple aspects. Thus kehityskulmien can be understood as “aspects of development” or “developmental angles.”

Because kehityskulma is not a widely standardized term, its precise meaning depends on the discipline. In psychology or education, kehityskulmien tarkastelu might refer to distinct developmental domains (for example cognitive, emotional, social) or to multiple developmental trajectories that influence learning outcomes. In biology or medicine it could describe alternative developmental pathways among individuals. In systems theory or project planning it may denote different development angles or design trajectories over time.

Usage and alternatives: In Finnish writing, kehityskulmien usage is relatively uncommon, and authors often prefer expressions such as kehityssuunnat (directions of development), kehityspolut (developmental paths), kehityksen kulku (the course of development), or kehityksen vaiheet (stages of development) depending on the context.
