Sally Hang; Geneva M. Jost; Amanda E. Guyer; Richard W. Robins; Paul D. Hastings; Camelia E. Hostinar – Child Development Perspectives, 2024
Loneliness becomes more prevalent as youth transition from childhood into adolescence. A key underlying process may be the puberty-related increase in biological stress reactivity, which can alter social behavior and elicit conflict or social withdrawal (fight-or-flight behaviors) in some youth, but increase prosocial (tend-and-befriend) responses…

Drake, Jennifer E. – Theory Into Practice, 2023
Learning how to regulate emotions is a significant developmental milestone in a child's life. It is important to understand which activities help children cope with emotionally distressing situations. One such activity, I argue, is drawing. In this article, I consider 2 ways in which drawing elevates mood in children: Drawing allows them to be…

Beccia, Ashley – Studies in Applied Linguistics & TESOL, 2020
A fundamental distinction in the field of second language acquisition (SLA) is route versus rate of acquisition (or L2 development). While the former has traditionally referred to developmental sequences of learning, the latter denotes the speed with which learners progress through developmental trajectories (Muñoz, 2006). A second distinction at…

This article focuses on the link between social norms and behavioral development as presented in research on norms regarding bullying and aggression. The aim is to present a conceptual framework for how classroom norms may explain children's decisions to defend others or refrain from defending. Norms emerge from group consensus about what is…

Prinstein, Mitchell J.; Giletta, Matteo – Merrill-Palmer Quarterly: Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2021
Over the past 50 years, a large body of work has demonstrated that during childhood and adolescence peers are strong socialization agents influencing youth development across a wide array of behavioral domains. In this report, we highlight how this long-standing research focus on peer influence may benefit from undertaking new directions that have…

Otterstad, Ann-Merete; Waterhouse, Ann-Hege Lorvik – Studies in Arts-Based Educational Research, 2018
Our chapter invites you/them/us to think the notion of possible worlds in line(s) with Gilles Deleuze's writings about dividing worldly signs into different encounters. We are developing artistic encounters, as worldly signs in an attempt to ontologically infiltrate cartographies of child/ren/hood(s) in early childhood locations. And doing that…

Dietrichson, Jens; Thomsen, Morten Kjaer; Seerup, Julie Kaas; Strandby, Martin Williams; Viinholt, Bjørn Christian Arleth; Bengtsen, Elizabeth – Campbell Systematic Reviews, 2022
This is the protocol for a Campbell systematic review. Our primary objective for this systematic review is to examine if preschool and school-based interventions aimed at improving language, literacy, and/or mathematical skills increase children's and adolescents' executive functions. As a secondary objective, we will examine how the effects of…

Foster, Raisa; Zin, Mnemo; Keto, Sami; Pulkki, Jani – Educational Studies: Journal of the American Educational Studies Association, 2022
Western modernity has shaped people's thought patterns and value hierarchies, relegating humans to the position of supremacy. This anthropocentric worldview has disconnected humans from the rest of nature and eventually led to the social and ecological catastrophe. This paper shows that collective memory work can help us recognize how we are…

Bukowski, William M.; Dirks, Melanie; Persram, Ryan J.; Wright, Leah; Infantino, Erika – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2020
Although peer relations are recognized as a fundamental developmental context, they have been rarely studied as a means of understanding the effects of socioeconomic status and inequality. In this paper, we show how and why peer relations provide a unique and powerful opportunity to assess the differential risks and resources available in the peer…

Imagery research with children has been primarily examined within a structured physical activity context. However, researchers have begun to investigate children's imagery use in their active play (i.e., unstructured leisure-time physical activity). The objective of the present article was to develop a conceptual model of active play imagery--the…
