The Role of Negative Emotionality in the Development of Child Executive Function and Language Abilities from Toddlerhood to First Grade: An Adoption Study
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Cioffi, Camille C.; Griffin, Amanda M.; Natsuaki, Misaki N.; Shaw, Daniel S.; Reiss, David; Ganiban, Jody M.; Neiderhiser, Jenae M.; Leve, Leslie D. – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Understanding the role of negative emotionality in the development of executive functioning (EF) and language skills can help identify developmental windows that may provide promising opportunities for intervention. In addition, because EF and language skills are, in part, genetically influenced, intergenerational transmission patterns are…

Difficulty in Differentiating Trustworthiness from Untrustworthiness in Older Age
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Webb, Bianca; Hine, Alison C.; Bailey, Phoebe E. – Developmental Psychology, 2016
Older adults report being more trusting than young adults, and this may be particularly evident in close social relationships. This is beneficial for well-being when trust is reciprocated, but detrimental when trust is exploited. In a repeated trust game, young (n = 35) and older adults (n = 33) invested real money over repeated interactions with…

Predicting Reading and Mathematics from Neural Activity for Feedback Learning
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Peters, Sabine; Van der Meulen, Mara; Zanolie, Kiki; Crone, Eveline A. – Developmental Psychology, 2017
Although many studies use feedback learning paradigms to study the process of learning in laboratory settings, little is known about their relevance for real-world learning settings such as school. In a large developmental sample (N = 228, 8-25 years), we investigated whether performance and neural activity during a feedback learning task…

Sense of Purpose as a Psychological Resource for Aging Well
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Windsor, Tim D.; Curtis, Rachel G.; Luszcz, Mary A. – Developmental Psychology, 2015
Having a sense of purpose is recognized as an important resource for maintaining health and well-being over the life span. We examined associations of individual differences in sense of purpose with levels and rates of change in indices of aging well (health, cognition, and depressive symptoms) in a sample of 1,475 older adults (M[subscript age] =…

The Malleability of Working Memory and Visuospatial Skills: A Randomized Controlled Study in Older Adults
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Stepankova, Hana; Lukavsky, Jiri; Buschkuehl, Martin; Kopecek, Miloslav; Ripova, Daniela; Jaeggi, Susanne M. – Developmental Psychology, 2014
There is accumulating evidence that training on working memory (WM) generalizes to other nontrained domains, and there are reports of transfer effects extending as far as to measures of fluid intelligence. Although there have been several demonstrations of such transfer effects in young adults and children, they have been difficult to demonstrate…

Consistency of Hand-Preference across the Early Years: Long-Term Relationship to Verbal Intelligence and Reading Achievement in Girls
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Wilbourn, Makeba Parramore; Gottfried, Allen W.; Kee, Daniel W. – Developmental Psychology, 2011
The relationship between consistency of hand preference, left hemispheric specialization, and cognitive functioning was examined in an ongoing longitudinal investigation. Children were classified as consistent or inconsistent in their hand preference across 5 assessments from ages 18 to 42 months. Findings demonstrated that (a) this early…
