During early adolescence, individuals can refine their use of cognitive reappraisal as an emotion regulation strategy while experiencing instability of psychological well-being through changes to positive affect, negative affect and life satisfaction. This scoping review aimed to identify and summarise the key findings from studies that have…

The present study investigated child depression symptoms, social skills, and mother-child conflict from mid-childhood to mid-adolescence. Bidirectional effects involving all three constructs were anticipated, as were differential effects for child gender. Participants included 893 families from the Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development…

A. M. Wasserman; T. E. Karns-Wright; C. W. Mathias; T. J. Moon; N. Hill-Kapturczak; D. M. Dougherty – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2024
The present study aimed to test if perceived pubertal timing was related to marijuana and alcohol use through deviant peer affiliation. Additionally, we examined if the deviant peer pathway was moderated by impulsiveness, gender, or both. Data were collected from 342 youth, most of whom had a family history of substance use disorder. Youth…

Kwon, Kyongboon; Willenbrink, Jessica B.; Bliske, Madeline N.; Brinckman, Bridget G. – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2022
We examined the extent to which children's emotion-sharing relationships were unique from friendships. We also examined the association between emotional experience and emotion sharing as well as the association between emotion sharing and prosocial behavior. Participants were 456 children (M[subscript age] = 10.6 years) from the Midwestern United…

Jamieson, Daniel; Shan, Zack; Sacks, Dashiell; Boyes, Amanda; Lagopoulos, Jim; Hermens, Daniel F. – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2023
Adolescence is a period of significant brain development and decreased sleep quality, making it an ideal period to investigate early indicators of anxiety disorders such as psychological distress. The amygdala and hippocampus have been implicated in the neurobiology of anxiety symptoms. Sex-based differences in anxiety symptoms and sleep quality…

Sheth, Chandni; Huber, Rebekah S.; Renshaw, Perry F.; Yurgelun-Todd, Deborah A.; McGlade, Erin C. – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2023
There has been concern about the potential sequelae of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in children. This study used data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development[superscript SM] (ABCD) study to investigate associations between mTBI and behavior and sleep in school-aged children. Generalized additive mixed models were run to examine the…

Chun, Sarah K.; Benjamin, Katherine S.; Mezulis, Amy H. – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2022
The experience of positive events is associated with increased positive affect, which can beneficially impact the physical and mental health outcomes of adolescents. Despite an increase in important life events during adolescence, little research has examined the influence of positive events on affect in this population. This study used Ecological…

Fabiola Silletti; Nicolò M. Iannello; Sonia Ingoglia; Cristiano Inguglia; Rosalinda Cassibba; Manuel Eisner; Denis Ribeaud; Pasquale Musso – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2024
The present study investigated the longitudinal associations of self-control and parental involvement with prosociality and internalizing problems from early to mid-to-late adolescence, within a risk and resilience and a developmental cascade framework. We used a panel design (i.e., four measurement times at 2-year intervals from 2008 onwards) to…

Simone Vogelaar; Anne C. Miers; Nadira Saab; Amanda W. G. van Loon; Hanneke E. Creemers; Jessica J. Asscher; P. Michiel Westenberg – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2024
The present study aimed to identify overall stress and salient stressors experienced by adolescents from different education tracks and self-perceived ethnic backgrounds. A total of 1489 adolescents (M = 13.40 years; SD = 0.89 years) from nine Dutch secondary schools participated. Self-reported stressors were measured with the adapted version of…

Xingchao Wang; Wenyuan Wang – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2024
In the present study, we sought to examine the relationship between perceived economic stress and adolescents' bullying victimization and extended previous literature by examining the mediating effect of self-esteem as well as the moderating effects of student-student relationships and gender in this association. The research hypotheses were…

Courtney B. Dunn; Albert D. Farrell – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2025
Polysubstance use is related to elevated risk for adverse outcomes but remains understudied among early adolescents. This study focused on a cross-sectional (N = 1568) primarily Black (79%) sample of eighth grade students living in urban communities (Mean age = 13.8, SD = 0.68) to identify subgroups based on adolescents' reports of lifetime and…

Navarro-Rodríguez, Christián Denisse; Vera Noriega, Jose A.; Bauman, Sheri – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2023
Although there is a body of literature that addresses victimization of adolescents based on their membership in stigmatized groups, there is little that focuses on this type of aggression delivered digitally. Furthermore, the extant literature typically focuses on the targets of such aggression, but scant attention has been paid to the aggressors.…

Thomas, Rayni; Delgado, Melissa Y.; Nair, Rajni L.; Wheeler, Lorey A.; Zeiders, Katharine H.; Perez-Brena, Norma J. – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2023
Stress and coping frameworks posit that active coping may help mitigate stress experiences of individuals, such as the stress resulting from structural racism or anti-immigrant sentiments (i.e., sociocultural stress) Latinx adolescents experience in the United States. Active coping has been linked to better school functioning in mixed-ethnic…
