Mattison, Richard E.; Benner, Gregory J.; Kumm, Skip – Educational Considerations, 2021
Though experiencing maltreatment (abuse or neglect) appears to be common in students with the special education label of emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD), little research has been devoted to this topic by EBD educators. This paper uses archived file drawer data from 1992 that focuses on 149 students newly classified with EBD for whom a…

Wasserman, Alexander M.; Shaw-Meadow, K. J.; Moon, T. J.; Karns-Wright, T. E.; Mathias, C. W.; Hill-Kapturczak, N.; Dougherty, D. M. – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Adolescent marijuana use has become increasingly more problematic compared with the past; thus, understanding developmental processes that increase the liability of marijuana use is essential. Two developmental pathways to adolescent substance use have been proposed: an externalizing pathway that emphasizes the expression of aggressive and…

Sandstrom, Andrea; Daoust, Andrew R.; Russell, Evan; Koren, Gideon; Hayden, Elizabeth P. – European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2021
Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis activity is related to negative mental health outcomes, including depression. Most developmental research uses salivary cortisol to index HPA activity; however, hair cortisol concentrations (HCCs) reflect cortisol production over extended periods of time. While HCCs have been linked to adult depression,…

Klusek, Jessica; O'Connor, Shannon L.; Hickey, Alexandra; Hills, Kimberly J.; Abbeduto, Leonard; Roberts, Jane E. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2022
This study characterized the rates of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adolescent and young adult males with fragile X syndrome (FXS) using a multi-method approach integrating a DSM-based parent interview (Children's Interview for Psychiatric Syndromes; P-ChIPS, Fristad et al., 1998) and a parent rating scale (Child Behavior…

Waheed, Shaikh Abdul; Khader, P. Sheik Abdul – SAGE Open, 2021
Earlier studies established the role of demographic and temperamental features (DTFs) in the adaptation of childhood stuttering. However, these studies have been short on examining the latent interrelationships among DTFs and not utilizing them in predicting this disorder. This research article endeavors to examine latent interrelationships among…

Petersen, Isaac T.; LeBeau, Brandon – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Poorer language ability has been shown to predict the development of externalizing behavior problems such as aggression and conduct problems. However, the developmental process that links poorer language ability to externalizing problems is unclear. The present study examined (a) whether within-child changes in language ability predict…

Reaves, Samantha; Martinez-Torteya, Cecilia; Kosson, David S. – Urban Education, 2022
Limited literature assessed the relation between family engagement in education and young children's socioemotional and behavioral functioning. This study investigated these associations longitudinally among urban and low-income, predominantly Latinx preschoolers (n = 69) and their mothers. Initial home-school conferencing predicted lower levels…

Lee, Vivian; Duku, Eric; Zwaigenbaum, Lonnie; Bennett, Teresa; Szatmari, Peter; Elsabbagh, Mayada; Kerns, Connor; Mirenda, Pat; Smith, Isabel M.; Ungar, Wendy J.; Vaillancourt, Tracy; Volden, Joanne; Waddell, Charlotte; Zaidman-Zait, Anat; Thompson, Ann; Georgiades, Stelios – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Temperament is a construct that is relatively stable over time but varies between individuals. Research suggests that children with autism spectrum disorder have a 'reactive' temperament profile when compared to peers with or without disabilities. However, our understanding of how temperament varies within children with autism and how it relates…

Clauser, Patricia; Ding, Yi; Chen, Eric C.; Cho, Su-Je; Wang, Cixin; Hwang, Jacqueline – School Psychology International, 2021
Being in a caregiver role for a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) brings a unique set of stressors and challenges to the entire family unit. This study examined a model hypothesizing that (a) parenting stress and the parenting style used by the parents of a child with ASD are correlated; (b) ASD severity, parenting stress, and parenting…

Bryant, Lindsey M.; Duncan, Robert J.; Marceau, Kristine; Schmitt, Sara A. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
The current study examines the extent to which associations between internalizing problems, body mass index (BMI), and language skills from early (36 months) to late childhood (fifth grade) are due to relatively stable between-child differences, time-specific correlations, or cross-lagged paths. Data from the NICHD study, Early Child Care and…

The present study examines parents' self-efficacy about anger regulation and irritability as predictors of harsh parenting and adolescent children's irritability (i.e., mediators), which in turn were examined as predictors of adolescents' externalizing and internalizing problems. Mothers, fathers, and adolescents (N = 1,298 families) from 12…

Friedman, Abbey; Taraban, Lindsay; Sitnick, Stephanie; Shaw, Daniel S. – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2021
The current study explored early adolescent child-level predictors (physical aggression, impulsivity, empathy) and contextual-level predictors (peer deviance, neighborhood dangerousness) of violent and nonviolent antisocial behavior (AB) in late adolescence. Additionally, we tested the moderating role of rejecting parenting on these associations…

Benassi, Erika; Camia, Michela; Giovagnoli, Sara; Scorza, Maristella – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 2022
A growing body of literature indicates that children with Specific Learning Disorder (SpLD) are at risk of internalising and externalising problems. Instead, less is known about the factors that may influence this symptomatology. For instance, a few studies investigated the extent to which impaired school well-being could predict internalising and…

Li, Yixian; Babcock, Sarah E.; Stewart, Shannon L.; Hirdes, John P.; Schwean, Vicki L. – Child & Youth Care Forum, 2021
Background: While empirical testing of many of the interRAI Child and Youth Mental Health (ChYMH) assessment scales have been found to be reliable and valid across both child and adult samples, other scales have yet to be psychometrically evaluated within child populations. Objective: The current study evaluates the psychometric properties of the…
