Kathy T. Do; Eva H. Telzer – Developmental Psychology, 2024
This preregistered, longitudinal study examined how much adolescents value and integrate their parents' and peers' attitudes into their own attitudes from early to middle adolescence. Across three waves, participants (N = 172, 91 female, 11-16 years across three waves; 439 data points) decided whether to pay money to learn their parents' or peers'…

Paul D. Hastings; Jonas G. Miller; David G. Weissman; Ryan T. Hodge; Richard W. Robins; Gustavo Carlo; Amanda E. Guyer – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Both parasympathetic nervous system regulation and receipt of social support from close relationships contribute to prosocial development, although few studies have examined their combined influences in adolescence and particularly within racially and ethnically minoritized populations. In this longitudinal study of 229 U.S. Mexican-origin…

Saunders, Gretchen R. B.; Liu, Mengzhen; Vrieze, Scott; McGue, Matt; Iacono, William G. – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Parent-child similarity is a function of genetic and environmental transmission. In addition, genetic effects not transmitted to offspring may drive parental behavior, thereby affecting the rearing environment of the child. Measuring genetic proclivity directly, through polygenic risk scores (PRSs), provides a way to test for the effect of…

Although parent-child conversations about race are recommended to curb White U.S. children's racial biases, little work has tested their influence. We designed a guided racism discussion task for U.S. White parents and their 8-12-year-old White children. We explored whether children's and parents' (a) pro-White implicit biases changed pre to…

Vitaro, Frank; Beaver, Kevin M.; Brendgen, Mara; Dickson, Daniel J.; Dionne, Ginette; Boivin, Michel – Developmental Psychology, 2021
The goal of the present study was to replicate Burt et al. (2009) and Hou et al. (2013) findings by determining the contribution of peers' deviance to changes in participants' (monozygotic [MZ] twins') self-reported delinquency from mid- to late adolescence while controlling for possible gene-environment correlations (rGE) through the use of the…

Harding, Jessica F.; Keating, Betsy; Walzer, Jennifer; Xing, Fei; Zief, Susan; Gao, Jessica – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Many factors at the individual, relationship, family, and community or environmental levels could predict repeat teen pregnancies or births, but research on certain factors is limited. In addition, few studies have examined whether these factors can accurately predict whether teen mothers will have a repeat pregnancy. This study examined…

George B. Richardson; Daniel Bates; Amy Ross; Hexuan Liu; Brian B. Boutwell – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Many developmental theories have not been sufficiently evaluated using designs that control for unobserved familial confounds. Our long-term goal is to determine the causal structure underlying associations between early environmental conditions and later psychosocial and health outcomes. Our overall objective in this study was to further evaluate…

Burke, Nicole; Rizzo, Michael T.; Britton, Tobias C.; Rhodes, Marjorie – Developmental Psychology, 2023
By 4 years of age, White children from across the United States begin to exhibit an awareness of racial inequalities, along with in-group preferences for other White children. The present study explored how the size and racial diversity of White children's social network (e.g., friends, family, and classmates) and neighborhood (zip code) are…

Brown, Geoffrey L.; Kogan, Steven M.; Cho, Junhan – Developmental Psychology, 2020
Father involvement contributes uniquely to children's developmental outcomes. The antecedents of father involvement among unmarried, African American fathers from rural areas, however, have been largely overlooked. The present study tested a conceptual model linking retrospective reports of childhood trauma and early adulthood social instability…

Johnson, Lisa E.; Robins, Richard W.; Guyer, Amanda E.; Hastings, Paul D. – Developmental Psychology, 2023
The current study examined the Five Cs model of positive youth development (PYD; Lerner et al., 2005) in U.S. Mexican-origin youth (N = 674, 50% female) and tested the extent to which ethnic pride, familismo, and respeto, as an index of cultural orientation, predicted PYD across midadolescence. PYD was modeled using a bifactor structure, which…

Mak, Hio Wa; Russell, Michael A.; Lanza, Stephanie T.; Feinberg, Mark E.; Fosco, Gregory M. – Developmental Psychology, 2020
Antisocial peer behavior and low parental knowledge of adolescents' activities are key interpersonal risk factors for adolescent substance use. However, how the magnitude of associations between these risk factors and substance use may vary across adolescence remains less well understood. The present study examined the age-varying associations of…

Lecarie, Emma K.; Doane, Leah D.; Stroud, Catherine B.; Walter, Devan; Davis, Mary C.; Grimm, Kevin J.; Lemery-Chalfant, Kathryn – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Early life stress, daily life experiences, and the stress responsive hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis have each been examined as predictors of the development of psychopathology. Rarely have researchers attempted to understand the covariation or interaction among these stress domains using a longitudinal design in the prediction of…

Laursen, Brett; Hartl, Amy C.; Vitaro, Frank; Brendgen, Mara; Dionne, Ginette; Boivin, Michel – Developmental Psychology, 2017
This investigation examines the spread of problem behaviors (substance use and delinquency) between twin siblings. A sample of 628 twins (151 male twin pairs and 163 female twin pairs) drawn from the Quebec Newborn Twin Study completed inventories describing delinquency and substance use at ages 13, 14, and 15. A 3-wave longitudinal actor-partner…

Santiago, Catherine DeCarlo; Jolie, Sarah A.; Bustos, Yvita; Distel, Laura M. L. – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Family is an important context for the development of adaptive child coping. Further, both family and child coping can promote positive mental health. This study examines whether family coping predicts child coping over 1 year among Mexican-origin immigrant families. Participants included 104 families with a child aged 6-10 years (M[subscript age]…

Kho, Carmen; White, Rebecca M. B.; Zhao, Chang; Knight, George P.; Roche, Kathleen M. – Developmental Psychology, 2023
This study examined the relations between normative developmental changes of familism values and later internalizing and externalizing behaviors in Latinx adolescents from an emerging immigrant community. The sample included 547 Latinx adolescents (55.4% female; baseline M[subscript age] = 12.80; SD = 1.03) residing in the Southeastern United…
