Ming Wai Wan; Alice Taylor; Ruby Rainbow; Crystal Liyadi – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2025
Narrative story stem techniques (NSSTs) offer insight into attachment and other representational aspects of preschool to young school aged children's inner lives. While the method moved into the academic and clinical mainstream some 35 years ago, their applicability to "non-Western" contexts remains little understood. This synthesis…

Akseer Hussain; Sumit Mazumdar – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2025
Globally, one in three women experiences domestic violence over their lifetimes. Yet, the factors that shape adult behavior toward domestic violence remain poorly understood. We examine the effect of exposure to political violence in early stages of life on likelihood of domestic violence in marital life. Combining household level survey with…

Ni, Yue; Geldhof, G. John; Chen, Bin-Bin; Stawski, Robert S. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
Research to date has shown longitudinal changes in conscientiousness during early and middle adolescence, but most studies have been conducted in Western countries. The present study aimed to examine the pattern of mean-level conscientiousness change at the transition into early adolescence among a Chinese sample using curve of factors (CUFFS)…

Braima Salaam – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
This study investigated the interactive effects of maternal and paternal warmth as well as behavioral control on adolescents' anxiety in Ghana and whether these linkages varied between adolescents in rural and urban contexts. Participants were 211 junior high school students (61% girls; 39% boys; M[subscript age] = 13.43; SD[subscript age] = 2.03)…

Exposure to war is known to impact children's physical and mental health. Recent research reveals that war exposure might even affect the developmental outcomes of children who are yet to be conceived. In this study, we sought to extend such prior work by investigating longitudinal associations between pre-conception war exposure and the…

Ka I Ip; Jean Anne Heng; Janice Lin; Jiannong Shi; Wang Li; Sheryl Olson – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
Across all cultures, parents have intuitive ideas ("ethnotheories") of what undesirable child characteristics are as well as how to explain them. Yet there have been relatively few cross-cultural comparisons of parents' ethnotheories about the nature and causes of child misbehavior. 108 mothers of 5-year-old children from the United…

During emerging adulthood, family relationships remain salient. This study examined, from a gender perspective, continuity/discontinuity and stability/instability in family relationships, in a two-time repeated-measures study with Spanish emerging adult college students. It also analyzed the implications of the quality of parent--child…

Coe, Jesse L.; Micalizzi, Lauren; Josefson, Brittney; Parade, Stephanie H.; Seifer, Ronald; Tyrka, Audrey R. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2020
Early adversity is associated with both internalizing and externalizing problems among children, and effects of adversity on dimensions of child temperament may underlie these links. However, very little is known about the role of child sex in these processes. The current study examined whether there are indirect effects of early adversity on…

Magro, Sophia W.; Utesch, Till; Dreiskämper, Dennis; Wagner, Jenny – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2019
Though it is well-established that self-esteem develops from childhood well into old age, little is known about the processes that influence this change, especially among young populations. This international, cross-sequential study examined the development of self-esteem in 1599 second-graders (Age M[subscript T1] = 7.99, SD[subscript T1] = 0.52…

Pearce, Ellie; Barreto, Manuela; Victor, Christina; Hammond, Claudia; Eccles, Alice M.; Richins, Matthew T.; O'Neil, Alisha; Knowles, Megan L.; Qualter, Pamela – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Previous experimental work showed that young adults reporting loneliness performed less well on emotion recognition tasks (Diagnostic Analysis of Nonverbal Accuracy [DANVA-2]) if they were framed as indicators of social aptitude, but not when the same tasks were framed as indexing academic aptitude. Such findings suggested that undergraduates…

McLean, Kate C.; Boggs, Samantha; Haraldsson, Kristin; Lowe, Alexandra; Fordham, Chelsea; Byers, Staci; Syed, Moin – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2020
The present studies focused on the role and socialization of biographical master narratives -- cultural narratives that prescribe the types and ordering of events that should occur in one's personal life identity narrative -- by focusing on adolescent and emerging adult gender identity development. We employed a combined explanatory and…

Luan, Ziyan; Poorthuis, Astrid M. G.; Hutteman, Roos; Asendorpf, Jens B.; Denissen, Jaap J. A.; van Aken, Marcel A. G. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2018
Achieving a clear view of one's personality is a challenging but crucial developmental task during adolescence, which has enduring influences. This task might be harder if significant others see individuals differently from how the adolescents see themselves. Supporting this, the looking-glass-self theory suggests that significant others…

In the current study, data collected from Wave 6 of the Millennium Cohort Study (n = 11,872), a nationally representative sample survey of youth aged 14 years in the UK, are used to examine the prevalence of loneliness among this age-group, investigate the feelings associated with the experience of loneliness among youth, explore the risk factors…

Zimmer-Gembeck, Melanie J.; Gardner, Alex A.; Hawes, Tanya; Masters, Mitchell R.; Waters, Allison M.; Farrell, Lara J. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2021
Rejection sensitivity is a bias toward expecting rejection that can result from negative social experiences and degrade emotional adjustment. In this study, rejection sensitivity was expected to predict patterns of adolescent social anxiety over 5 years when considered alongside other known or expected risk and protective factors: peer rejection…

Seiffge-Krenke, Inge; Persike, Malte – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2017
The transition to adulthood is a critical juncture in the course of psychopathology. This study examined the ways in which earlier capacity to deal with relationship stress during adolescence contributed to an adaptive outcome in emerging adulthood. In a prospective study of 145 individuals, relationship stress, individual coping capacities, and…
