Ezgi Yildiz; Berna A. Uzundag – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024

Emotion comprehension (EC), theory of mind (ToM), and language are particularly important aspects of child development.

Lee, Kyuho; Kim, Dahee; Gilligan, Megan; Martin, Peter – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2019
Previous studies used chronological age to examine the relationship between aging and volunteerism. In the current study, we examined the influence of subjective life expectancy (SLE) on volunteering based on the socioemotional selectivity theory emphasizing that older adults focus on very close relationships. Data of 11,203 older adults, 55 to 74…

This study advances the cross-cultural temperament literature by comparing temperament ratings of toddlers from 14 nations. Multilevel modeling (MLM) procedures were utilized to regress negative emotionality (NE) and component subscales on Hofstede's cultural value dimensions while controlling for age and gender. More individualistic values were…

Lavoie, Jennifer; Yachison, Sarah; Crossman, Angela; Talwar, Victoria – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2017
Lying is an interpersonal exercise that requires the intentional creation of a false belief in another's mind. As such, children's development of lie-telling is related to their increasing understanding of others and may reflect the acquisition of basic social skills. Although certain types of lies may support social relationships, other types of…
