Catalina Patricia Morales-Murillo; Manuel Pacheco-Molero; Irene León-Estrada; Rosa Fernández-Valero; Mónica Gutiérrez Ortega; R. A. McWilliam – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2025
This study analyzed the fit of data collected with the Measure of Engagement, Independence, and Social Relationships for 3- to 5-year-olds (MEISR 3-to-5-years-old) to a proposed theoretical model based on the cross-walk of MEISR 3-to-5-years-old items and codes from 7 chapters of the Activities and Participation component of the International…

Culture is a key determinant of children's development both in its own right and as a measure of generalizability of developmental phenomena. Studying the role of culture in development requires information about participants' demographic backgrounds. However, both reporting and treatment of demographic data are limited and inconsistent in child…

Köngäs, Mirja; Määttä, Kaarina – International Journal of Research in Education and Science, 2023
Childhood research is increasingly being conducted from different disciplines, and research methods for showing the child's world are also increasing and evolving. This article examines the challenges and opportunities of childhood research in an early childhood education and care (ECEC) environment from an ethnographic approach. The purpose of…

Johnson, Sara K. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
Developmental scientists are often interested in subgroups of people who share commonalities in aspects of development; these subgroups often cannot be captured directly but instead must be inferred from other information. Mixture models can be used in these situations. Two specific types of mixture models, latent profile transition analyses and…

Krochmal, Patrick; Cooper, Dan M.; Radom-Aizik, Shlomit; Lu, Kim D. – Journal of School Health, 2021
Background: Low physical fitness (PF) levels during childhood affect healthy growth and development, and increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Physical education standards exist for nearly all states in the United States, but evaluation of PF in youth has yet to be systematic, reproducible, and harmonized. The purpose of this project was…

Chawla-Duggan, Rita; Konantambigi, Rajani; Lam, Michelle Mei Seung; Sollied, Sissel – Pedagogy, Culture and Society, 2022
Our research community has limited understanding about the potential of video. This paper uses double stimulation and transformative agency to analyse two video modalities, extraction, and reflection; in a study about learning as it develops through family interactions. As researchers we were interested in children's motives. However, the children…

Rioux, Charlie; Stickley, Zachary L.; Little, Todd D. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2021
Following the onset of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, daily life significantly changed for the population. Accordingly, researchers interested in examining patterns of change over time may now face discontinuities around the pandemic. Researchers collecting in-person longitudinal data also had to cancel or delay data…

Riggleman, Samantha – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2021
Social-emotional development in early childhood (EC) is an important factor to their later development and adjustment. While all young children display unwanted behaviors at some time during development, challenging behaviors that occur across settings and over a period of time should be identified and intervened; thus, data collection efforts…

Fujimoto, Ken A.; Gordon, Rachel A.; Peng, Fang; Hofer, Kerry G. – AERA Open, 2018
Classroom quality measures, such as the Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale, Revised (ECERS-R), are widely used in research, practice, and policy. Increasingly, these uses have been for purposes not originally intended, such as contributing to consequential policy decisions. The current study adds to the recent evidence of problems with the…

Bartholomaeus, Clare – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2016
While developmental discourses have been heavily critiqued in relation to education systems, less attention has been paid to how these impact the data collection process in classroom research. This article utilises Foucault's concept of regime of truth to highlight the pervasiveness of developmental discourses when conducting research in primary…

Pearrow, Melissa M.; Snyder, Jill; Kaye, Amy – Communique, 2017
Systems to organize academic outcomes data are integrated into schools; and while behavioral data, instruction tools, and systems are emerging, a clear gap remains (Lane, Oakes, & Menzies, 2010). Behavioral health has historically targeted resources at an individual level, and transitioning to a systems perspective of prevention and…

Narea, Marigen – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2016
This commentary discusses the implication of child and adolescent development research for public policy in Latin America. As illustrated by the articles in this special issue, even though the research of child and adolescent development in Latin America is making significant progress, still more research is needed. Developmental research in the…

Ferreira, Tiago; Cadima, Joana; Matias, Marisa; Vieira, Joana Marina; Leal, Teresa; Verschueren, Karine; Matos, Paula Mena – Developmental Psychology, 2018
Parental engagement in positive activities with the child may show significant variation across time, assuming a crucial influence on child development. In dual-earner families, work-family conflict can interfere with parental engagement, with negative consequences for children's behavior. The current study examined the change trajectories of…

Rollins, Pamela Rosenthal – Topics in Language Disorders, 2016
This article elucidates the unfolding of 3 phases of cognitive development through which typical children move during the first 2 years of life to illuminate the interrelationships among early cognition, communicative intention, and word-learning strategies. The resulting theoretical framework makes clear the developmental prerequisites for social…

Ullery, Mary Anne; Katz, Lynne – Journal of Education for Students Placed at Risk, 2017
This article examined transition rates of young children (n = 102) from an early intervention program at the Linda Ray Intervention Program (LRIP) who had documented developmental delays and co-occurring prenatal drug exposure often coupled with verified child maltreatment. Findings indicated that there was significant group improvement from…
